These satchels are hand-crafted in Britain from top quality, natural heavy leather by artisan leather-smiths. This standard design features a long adjustable shoulder strap (4-foot) that gives the satchel bag a lot of versatility. The satchel is very suitable for young kids, teenagers or fully-grown adults who are looking for something different. This particular 15-inch satchel (we have 5 standard sizes of satchel) is cut from Autumn Tan leather and is then stitched using a colour matched blend of cotton and nylon for extra durability. The straps and fasteners are then finished with silver buckles and finally the satchel is rivetted for completeness. All our satchels go through a number of quality control checks to ensure that the one you receive meets our high quality standard. All our satchels come with a 30-day no-quibble, money-back guarantee that is also accompanied by a 5-year craftsmanship guarantee. Check the reverse of the satchel for our embossed branding that ensures the quality and craftsmanship is second-to-none and that you're receiving an authentic British hand-crafted satchel.

Our 15-inch satchel is similar to the 14-inch in the sense that it is designed to hold all styles of Macbook and A4 folders and pads, but the 15-inch has a wider gusset and a little more space all-round. This extra space inside the bag allows you too carry a lot more stuff. This satchel is perfect for students who've lots of books to carry everyday, whilst also needing to take their Mac/iPad with them everywhere.

Our Autumn Tan is the colour of a leaf from a tree that has been exposed to the summer sun after falling and has completely dried out. It's a very light brown similar in colour to a London tan but without an orange tint and a little lighter in tone. The finish of the leather is slightly matt and spickled. The spickle finish is created when tanning the cow hide. It has little flecks of darker and lighter dye that blend with each other to create an average colour. It's a great effect and very unique. Some people may call our autumn tan 'Mustard' but it's not as yellow as an english Mustard and if we were to call it Mustard it would certainly have to be a wholegrain due to the spickle finish. The reverse of the leather is dyed in a mixture light brown and yellow pigment to colour match the finished side. The consensus of opinion is that it's similar in colour to a dark yellow or mustard but it's not exactly the same.
