Messenger Bags

Casa Lopez men's leather messenger bags are mid-size crossbody bags: large enough for the day's things, compact enough to stay out of the way. Argentine cowhide, worked by hand in our own workshop.

The flap covers the main compartment and closes with a buckle or a leather magnet depending on the model. The strap is wide, adjustable, and comes off the sides of the body rather than from rings on the flap, which distributes the weight better. Inside is a single generous cavity; some models have a quick-access pocket at the back.

A leather messenger bag ages well. Unlike nylon or canvas, leather records the years with character: it softens where it rests against the body and develops a patina at the points of contact. The result is an object that looks more valuable with time, not less.
