HERBIE leather: a full vegetable-tanned leather from Sanyosha, a tannery with a long history dating back to its founding in 1911. After the Russo-Japanese War, the company produced leather shoes, belts and other goods for military use, and its quality is well established. Tanned slowly over time in pit tanks with tannins extracted from North American mimosa, the leather has a firm body and is lightweight yet durable. A wax finish gives it a matte, mottled surface with a naturally rugged character, and with continued use it develops a sheen and a pronounced patina. This shoulder bag has a distinctive design, with an eye-catching ring-shaped fitting. Though compact, it has a generous gusset that provides more storage than its appearance suggests. It is ideal for those who want to carry just the essentials—such as a smartphone, mini wallet and handkerchief—with ease. A small exterior pocket is handy for Bluetooth earphones, keys and other small items. It works well with casual outfits and also adds an accent to smarter looks. As HERBIE leather gains depth with age, the bag grows dearer with use and becomes truly your own.
