Bags

A bag made of cowhide or springbok hide isn’t just any accessory: it’s a unique, handmade piece that you won’t find anywhere else. Below, you’ll learn why, what styles are available, and how to style it.

Why choose a bag of cowhide or springbuck?

A bag made of cowhide or springbok leather instantly adds character. You can choose from:

• A truly natural product, with a natural sheen, grain, and texture.
• Make a big statement with minimal effort: instantly add character to a simple outfit.
• A strong and durable material, suitable for everyday use when handled with care.

With a variety of styles and colors to choose from, you’ll always find a bag that suits your style—whether it’s rugged, understated, stylish, or colorful.

Different sizes: from compact to daily use

Each bag has its own size and intended use. This makes it easy to choose one that suits your style and needs:

• Issy (12 x 9 cm): compact and ideal as a small bag for cards, some loose change, or a lipstick. Perfect as a night-out bag or as an extra pouch inside a larger bag.
• Kim (16 x 12 cm): just a bit roomier, handy for cards, keys, and a small phone. Perfect for a night out or quick errands.
• Ann (20 x 14 cm): a handy size for your most important essentials: phone, wallet, keys, and a small makeup set.
• Carol (23 x 15 cm): elegant and practical at the same time. Perfect for everyday use if you don’t want to carry too much but still want to have everything within reach.
• Mickey (25 x 20 cm): slightly larger, with enough room for a slightly bigger wallet, glasses, a phone, and small extras. Perfect as an everyday bag.
• Gemma (29 x 23 cm): the roomiest bag in the collection. Perfect if you want to carry a little extra: a notebook, pencil case, phone, wallet, and other daily essentials.

Having doubts about the size? Then measure a favorite bag at home and compare the dimensions. This way you can quickly see which model is most similar to what you are comfortable with now.

Unique and available in limited quantities: while supplies last

Important to know:

• Each bag is a one-of-a-kind piece in the collection.
• Is a bag sold out, then exactly that model in that color will not return.

That means you’re choosing a bag that almost no one else has. See a bag that suits you? Don’t wait too long. Due to limited stock, a style can sell out quickly, especially in popular colors like Nguni black/white, natural, or a bold shade like pink or yellow.

How to combine these bags with your outfit?

• Casual: combine a natural cowhide bag with jeans and a simple T-shirt or sweater for a cool, yet calm look.
• Business: choose a quiet pattern in black, brown or navy blue as an accent to a neat outfit.
• For evenings and parties: go for a bold color (red, pink, baby blue, yellow) or a distinctive Nguni pattern to make a statement.

Because they are natural materials, these bags pair beautifully with other basic materials such as cotton, wool, linen, leather, and denim.

Always a special specimen

Whether you choose model Issy, Kim, Ann, Carol, Mickey or Gemma: you always get a bag with its own character. The combination of cowhide or springbuck, the handmade character and the limited stock ensures that your bag will remain something truly special.

Do you see a style in your favorite size and color? Then now is the time to choose it, because once it’s gone, it’s really gone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is springbuck?

Springbuck is the hide of the springbok, an African antelope. The hide has a fine, short coat with a beautiful natural pattern, and, just like cowhide, is a genuine natural product with its own unique sheen and texture.

Why is every bag unique?

Because cowhide and springbok hide are natural products, no two hides are alike in pattern and color. In addition, every bag is handmade. This means you’ll always have a one-of-a-kind piece.

Will a sold-out model be restocked?

No. If a bag is sold out, that exact model in that color won’t be restocked. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. If you see a bag that suits you, don’t wait too long—especially for popular colors.

What styles and sizes are available?

Six styles, ranging from small to large: Issy (12 x 9 cm), Kim (16 x 12 cm), Ann (20 x 14 cm), Carol (23 x 15 cm), Mickey (25 x 20 cm), and Gemma (29 x 23 cm). Not sure which one to choose? Measure one of your favorite bags at home and compare the dimensions.

Will I receive the exact bag shown in the photo?

Yes. Each bag is one-of-a-kind and is photographed individually, so you’ll receive exactly the bag you see in the photo.

How should I care for my bag?

It’s a natural material, so treat it with care. Keep it out of prolonged rain and direct sunlight, and wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth. That way, it’ll stay beautiful for a long time.
