The Tenby — Oat Mini Leather Crossbody Bag

The Tenby is a mini crescent crossbody: a small half-moon body with a zip that runs along the curve, on a slim detachable strap.

A pale, sandy cream that keeps the grain visible. We give it a slightly firmer finish than our browns so it resists denim transfer better.

It is 7.75″ (20 cm) wide, 5″ (13 cm) tall and 2″ (5 cm) deep, with a strap that adjusts up to a 23.5″ (60 cm) drop. Phone, cards, keys and a lip balm, and it sits flat at the hip.

Inside there is one open slip pocket sized for cards. It comes with a detachable 0.75″ (2 cm) adjustable crossbody strap, up to a 23.5″ (60 cm) drop.

Choose the Tenby for evenings, festivals and errands when you carry almost nothing. For the same curve in soft suede, see our suede crossbody bags. Or browse the full range of mini crossbody bags.

The leather

We use full-grain cowhide from our own regular supply and keep the natural surface. Nothing is sprayed over it to hide marks, so it softens and darkens with use instead of cracking.

How it is made

Made to order in our own workshop. The strap roots, the part that fails first on cheap bags, are double layered and hand stitched, and all fittings are solid brass.

Care

Let it dry slowly if it gets caught in rain, stuff it lightly with paper when stored, and condition it twice a year.
