In addition to the one that we’re giving away, we’ve been given another one to test drive and review.

It’s a classic satchel shape & size and is incredibly useful and versatile. It boasts both a shoulder strap and a handle depending on how you prefer to carry your bag.

Being black, it means that it will go with any outfit; it’s smart enough for the office and casual enough for a trip to the pub. It features lots of useful compartments and nooks & crannies to store your phone, writing implements and such like.

Gimme Five! Satchels

selection of 5 satchels

For years, my everyday, about town bag has been a brown leather satchel. They’re smart, versatile and timeless. I’ve had a few incarnations – all used & abused until they were falling apart. Two things make me think of the quintessential British school child, a brown leather satchel and a pair of Clarks Joyance T-bar sandals.

The best, to date, was a vintage school satchel Justin bought for me at our local flea market for £7. Over time, the long strap and then the carry handle on it both broke. I resorted to tying them with string for a while, not wanting to give in to the inevitable.

I’m on the look out for a new contender and there are lots to choose from out there. This is my dream shortlist – financially, some more a dream than others!

  1. Mulberry Walter briefcase: £895.00, Selfridges
  2. Two tone leather satchel by Artisan Satchels: £99, Notonthehighstreet
  3. The Classic 13″ in vintage: £108, The Cambridge Satchel Company
  4. Sandqvist Artur leather satchel: £259.00, ASOS
  5. Signature collaboration Harris Tweed satchel: £175, Next
