Retro PU Leather Backpack

Some bags make you choose: the practical backpack that ruins the outfit, or the pretty shoulder bag that fits half your things. This one refuses to pick a side. Worn on both straps it is a roomy retro backpack in soft vegan leather, with a zipped front pocket for the phone and keys and a main compartment that swallows a tablet, a cardigan and the rest of your day. Clip on the woven two-tone strap instead and it hangs off one shoulder as a fashion bag, which means the commute, the cafe and the evening out are all covered by the same purchase. The softly weathered finish gives each color that lived-in vintage look rather than plasticky shine, and the smoke-grey hardware keeps it looking a class above its price. Five colors run from everyday black and grey through warm brown to dusty pink and denim blue, so there is a version for every wardrobe. Stop rotating between bags that each do half the job. Pick your color, sling it however the day demands, and carry everything once.
