Land Girls’ Bag

Hard-working leather and waterproof canvas bag

Inspired by the Land Girls of the 1940s and 50s, this is a hard-working “go anywhere, do anything” bag. Equally at home at your local farmers market (it can carry as much as you can cope with), or on the beach. The strong yet supple vegetable tanned leather straps wrap entirely around the bag twice which make for optimum carrying power – this bag can literally carry what you are able to lift! Thick shoulder straps mean that they will not cut in to your shoulders on a t-shirt day.
The design and shape are understated, with the wrap-around straps giving the bag its identity. 

They have even been known to be used as make-shift ruck-sacks on bike-rides!

  • Strong, supple vegetable tanned, water buffalo hide leather straps**
  • Hardy, waterproof cotton canvas outer fabric – like sail cloth
  • Contrasting waterproof cotton canvas lining
  • Two handy zipped inside pockets lined with waterproof canvas.
  • Handcrafted in Lincolnshire, England

Sides: 14 inches (max width of 28 inches if needs to carry flat wide item)
Strap length: 27 inches (from top of bag to top of bag)

 

** Water buffalo is used for its specific qualities of being a thick, strong, supple leather yet not too rigid, so will not cut in to the wearer’s shoulders.

Note: Please note that as the hides are chosen individually for these bags, their colour may vary slightly from that in the image. If you have any concerns about the exact shade of water-buffalo that you are purchasing, please do not hesitate to ask and we will email you a photo of the actual strap.
