Burberry is known for having a classic, pared-down aesthetic, but in the past few seasons the line has transformed into something much more cutting edge. This studded leather bowling bag is the perfect example of how the British brand is able to combine its traditional quality with modern trends.
The black leather on this bowler has the perfect balance of softness and stiffness. The body of the bag is supple enough to keep the structure of the bag intact without making it look stiff, but the buckled straps are of a heavier leather that keeps them in place. The silver hardware has been kept to a minimum, excepting the studs, of course, which keep the bag edgy without appearing over-adorned.
I don’t usually care much for bowlers. I find their squarish shape to be a bit clunky, but this is definitely an exception. It is a bit boxy, but it seems in keeping with the bag’s rock ‘n’ roll edginess. The large size of the bag is a lot to handle, but women who like to take everything everywhere will be more than thrilled. Lighter-packing women like myself might find it more useful as an overnighter.
Whatever you use this bowler for, it’s sure to be a great edgy addition to any wardrobe. Even if, at $2795, the price is a little steep.
