When we set out to design a reusable leather bag, sustainable production and waste reduction were our top priorities. We are very proud of the result — The Swagga Bag — a strong, stylish, 100% organic New Zealand leather bag that collapses as thin as a placemat when not in use. Zero-waste criteria measured Swagga Bag.

Genuine organic leather leather - love it, smell it, feel it.
