Nahui Ollin delivers a fun everyday bag, without compromising its signature candy wrapper look, with the Around Town satchel.
Of course, Nahui Ollin likes to tell us every bag from its collection will suit everyday use. However, this one does a little more to convince me than most. The leather patches in the corners help to strengthen the woven candy wrappers that are the brand’s trademark. I’m not sure about the look, which seems more clunky than retro, but the practical appeal is compelling.
We see leather used again in the shoulder straps. I appreciate how it turns the chains into comfortable handles, but true greenies may not be so keen. The use of the cow-hide does seem at odds with the brand’s eco-friendly stance. I can forgive it for the functionality it adds, but many won’t be so merciful.
The extra space the Around Town affords, and of course the use of luxury leather, makes this Nahui Ollin more expensive than many in the brand’s collection. You can find it for $210 in a variety of patterns including this colorful Tutti Frutti design.
