Some bags just carry your things. This one keeps you organised, hands-free, and delighted every time you reach for it. Made in small batches from water-resistant waxed canvas and limited-edition designer prints, this is the bag for women who refuse to choose between practical and beautiful.
Hands-free and ready for anything - the adjustable handmade crossbody strap sits comfortably all day, whether you're commuting, exploring, or running errands
More organised than it looks - two pleated outer pockets, two inner slip pockets, a zipped front pocket, and a press-stud back pocket mean everything has a home and stays there
Water-resistant from the start, more beautiful over time - the waxed canvas or organic cotton oilskin outer shrugs off light showers, and develops a rich natural patina the more you use it
A print you won't see anywhere else - the curved flap showcases a limited-edition designer fabric; once it's gone, it's genuinely gone for good
Lined with reclaimed fabric - soft repurposed textiles give forgotten materials a new life and make every bag completely one of a kind inside and out
Built to last, not just to look good - reinforced seams, binding, and considered construction mean this bag gets better with age
One handmade waxed canvas or oilskin messenger bag
Size: W 24 cm × H 29 cm × D 6.5 cm
Only one of this design available — when it's gone, it won't return
Care: spot-clean only to preserve the waxed canvas or oilskin finish
Dispatched the next working day if ordered before 5pm
Arrives via Royal Mail Tracked - you'll receive updates from postage to doorstep
🎁 Makes a brilliant gift - ideal for birthdays, Christmas, or for any woman who deserves something beautiful and genuinely useful. A gift card message can be added at checkout.
💡 Want it in your own fabrics and colours? Design your own messenger bag here and Claire will make it just for you.
How much does it hold? More than its compact silhouette suggests. At W 24 cm × H 29 cm × D 6.5 cm, it comfortably fits a phone, purse, keys, and daily essentials across its multiple pockets. It's designed to keep you organised, not weighed down.
Is it waterproof? The waxed canvas or organic cotton oilskin outer is water-resistant, meaning it handles light showers and everyday splashes well. It's not designed for heavy rain or full submersion. Spot-cleaning preserves the waxed finish.
What is waxed canvas and oilskin and does it need maintenance? Waxed canvas and oilskin are traditional, durable fabrics treated with wax for water resistance. Over time it develops a natural patina - slight creasing and lightening in areas of use - which is entirely normal and adds character. If the finish dulls, it can be re-waxed at home with canvas wax.
Is this really one of a kind? Yes, and more so than our other products. Only one bag is made per print - when this design sells, it won't be remade. The lining fabric is also reclaimed and unique, so no two bags are ever the same inside or out.
How long will delivery take? Orders placed before 5pm are dispatched the next working day via Royal Mail Tracked 48 (2–3 days) or Tracked 24 (next day). Free standard delivery on orders over £120; £4.95 otherwise.
Can I return it if it's not right? Yes - free UK returns, subject to our Returns Policy. To start a return, get in touch via the website.
Can I have one made in my own choice of fabrics? Yes - use the design-your-own option here and Claire will create a messenger bag in the colours and fabrics that feel most like you.
A messenger bag doesn't just hold your things - it carries your story. This one is made for women who want to move through the world with ease, a little style, and everything exactly where they need it.
Add to your basket - and if you'd like your own version made to order, design your own here or get in touch with Claire directly.
