Looking for the perfect, durable, everyday hand bag?

ONE OF A KIND

This one of a kind, stunning, sustainable leather travel bag is the perfect size for quick get-aways, day beach trips, yoga class, or running errands, while you travel near and far. This size is ideal for all your zero-waste accessories, water bottle, wallet, books, cosmetic bag, change of clothes, and other must have items as you go about your life. Adjustable straps and side pockets (perfect for stashing a reusable water bottle) make this sustainable bag travel ready for any adventure.

Made from textile treasures from Maya villages all around Guatemala, a country world famous for its intricate textiles and hand-embroidery, this bag is handmade magic. Its bold textile print comes from re-purposed traditional hand-woven huipiles, the indigenous clothes of local Maya women. Instead of throwing out these beautiful clothes, our artisan supplier gives them a second life as a one-of-a-kind hand bag! 

The artisan supplier consciously sources their leather from providers that have sustainable practices and view leather as a byproduct of the meat industry,  preventing future waste, and utilizing all parts of the animal. 

Extremely durable, structured body, imported hardware and heavy-weight construction. This bag will last you a lifetime.
