It seems contradictory to describe a bag as both slouchy and structured, but the London satchel from Treesje doesn’t like to play by the rules. Soft natural grained leather hangs on a structured boxy frame to create a look that’s both relaxed, yet sophisticated. This makes the London one of the most versatile satchels I’ve seen.
The boxy design makes it look a lot like a gym bag, and it could easily do this job. But I’d hesitate to put my stinky sneakers and sweats into such a luxurious handbag! The splash of hexagonal studs on the front offers a little edge. They’re just for show, but the London’s exterior isn’t only about good looks. It also comes with a zippered pocket on the front and another in back for stashing the bits and pieces you want on hand.
It’s a good thing too, because this bag is so big things could easily got lost without some clever organization. Triple zips at the top open to reveal three separate secure compartments. They also come complete with pockets, so even the most scatterbrained bagista will find it easy to keep her essentials in order. The hardest part is remembering where you’ve stashed that ringing cell phone!
The London satchel doesn’t quite have the style to function as an evening bag, but it’d be ideal for a casual café meal, a day at the mall, or as a piece of carry-on luggage. But at $670 retail, be prepared to save your pennies if you want to tote this Treesje studded satchel.
