And right now at ALTOE, it’s available for just £85, down from £110. That’s a saving of £25 on a bag that’s built to last a lifetime.

- 🟢 Rich forest green leather — a versatile, sophisticated colour that works with everything from casual denim to smart workwear.
- ✂️ Handmade in England — traditional craftsmanship with meticulous attention to detail on every stitch.

- 📱 Perfectly sized for modern life — fits your plus-sized smartphone, keys, bank card, glasses, lipstick, coin purse, and gum. Everything you need, nothing you don’t.
- 👜 Adjustable detachable strap (115cm–135cm) — wear it on your shoulder, cross-body, or carry it by the top grab handle.

Real-Life Usage Situations
💼 The Everyday Work Bag
For those who don’t need to carry a laptop but want something smarter than a tote, the Midi Satchel is the perfect work companion. It holds your phone, keys, cards, and a few essentials without the bulk of a larger bag. The structured leather keeps its shape beautifully on your desk or under your chair, and the forest green colour adds a pop of personality to any office outfit. Wear it cross-body on the commute, then switch to the grab handle for meetings.
🎇 Weekends, Brunches & Days Out
The Midi Satchel is the ideal size for a day out when you want to travel light but look put-together. Farmers markets, gallery visits, lunch with friends, a stroll around town — it holds everything you need without weighing you down. The green leather looks stunning in natural light and pairs effortlessly with autumnal tones, neutrals, and bold colours alike.
🎉 Weddings, Events & Special Occasions
A structured leather satchel in a rich jewel tone is a genuinely elegant choice for a wedding guest or a smart evening event. The classic silhouette and quality leather elevate any outfit, and the compact size means you’re not lugging a massive bag around all day. The concealed magnetic fastenings mean quick, discreet access to your essentials without fumbling with clasps.
🎁 The Gift That Lasts Decades
Real leather improves with age — it develops a patina, softens to the owner’s shape, and becomes more characterful over time. A handmade leather satchel is the kind of gift that gets better every year and is kept for decades rather than seasons. For a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or Christmas gift, this is the choice that says you put real thought into it. At £85, it’s also the kind of gift that feels far more expensive than it is.
🌍 The Conscious Shopper’s Choice
In a world of fast fashion and disposable accessories, a handmade leather bag is the antithesis of throwaway culture. Buy once, buy well. The Midi Satchel is made to last — properly cared for, it will outlast dozens of cheaper bags and look better for it. For shoppers who want to invest in quality over quantity, this is exactly the kind of purchase that makes sense.
Was £110. Now £85. That’s a £25 Saving on a Handmade Leather Bag.
Let’s put this in context. Handmade leather bags from British makers typically start at £100 and go well beyond £300 for comparable quality. High street leather bags at this price point are almost always machine-made from lower-grade leather or bonded leather that cracks and peels within a few years.
The Leather Midi Satchel in Green was already excellent value at £110. At £85, it’s a genuinely remarkable deal for a bag that is handmade in England, from real leather, by skilled craftspeople. You’re getting British craftsmanship, premium materials, and a timeless design for less than the price of many high-street bags that won’t last a fraction as long.
This is the kind of price that makes you want to buy one in every colour — and at £85, you absolutely could.
Caring for Your Leather Midi Satchel
Real leather is easy to care for and rewards a little attention with years of beautiful wear. Keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading, and use a good quality leather conditioner every few months to keep it supple. If it gets wet, let it dry naturally away from heat sources. The more you use it, the better it looks.
