Redefining the classics

The camera bag, the bowling bag and the saddle bag: old shapes that still earn their place.

Start with what you carry

Empty your bag on the table. Keep what you used this week and leave the rest at home. A good bag is chosen for a day, not for every possible day.

Choose the shape

A tote for work and errands, a crossbody for travel and the city, a small top handle for evenings. One of each covers almost everything.

• Look for full-grain leather and stitched edges.
• Check that the strap sits where you like it.
• Pick a lining in a pale colour, so you can find things.

Let it age

Small marks and a deeper colour are the leather settling in. Feed it twice a year and it keeps its shape for decades.

The best bag is the one you stop thinking about.
