A Highland Fling - Cambridge Satchel US Store

This Autumn and Winter season, we’re heading to the Highlands.

Our three-part Highland Fling collection celebrates the myth and magic of the Scottish Highlands’ folkloric flora and fauna. Inspired by traditional style elevated with bold colour through textures, tartans and vivid nature-inspired tones, this collection perfectly encapsulates the spirit of our new, bold rebrand. With parts one and two already available online and in stores, let us guide you through them, and give you a sneak peek of part three…

Autumn

Classic pinks meet natural tones and textured tartans in this transitional drop between summer and autumn.

Salmon Pink Saffiano

Pink as the salmon found leaping in Scotland’s fast-flowing rivers. Complete with a textured Saffiano grain, the colour of the summer will brighten outfits all year long. 

Heather Green

Inspired by the wiry, hardy stems that cover moors and hills. Symbolising protection and luck in Scottish folklore, the beautiful deep green of heather is replicated in this brand new shade.  

French Grey Celtic Grain with Ancient MacBeth Tartan

Our sophisticated French Grey in a Celtic Grain finish, complete with a colourful blue-based tartan from the clan of a certain (in)famous King of Scotland! 

Winter

Wrap up warm and style it up. A Highland Fling: Winter Edition has all the dark crimsons and black bases needed for a cosy yet classy cold season. Featuring a second, more dramatic, tartan pattern.

Red Velvet Celtic Grain

This luxuriously warm red has purple undertones that make for a complex, elegant and versatile colour, which will brighten up daytime neutrals or complement a bolder evening outfit. In our beautiful Celtic Grain texture, this tone conjures up the crimson sponge of a beautiful red velvet cake.

Black with Red Velvet Celtic Grain

You can’t go wrong with black, but for those wishing to add an extra dash of colour to this timeless tone, this combination provides an elegant duo of shades. Allow our luxuriously warm Red Velvet to add an element of boldness to your look, complemented by our Celtic Grain texture.

Black with Strome Black Modern Tartan

This bold pairing includes a tartan from the Stewart Clan, known for producing many of Scotland’s Kings and Queens. The many bright colours intertwined in this tartan represent the Clan’s varied and dramatic history, and make for a wonderful accompaniment for our classic Black leather.

Christmas

Look, it’s never too early to start talking about Christmas, especially with the line-up we have in store. Can you guess the colour combinations below? A Highland Fling: Christmas Edition is coming soon…

  

Are you in full on cosy autumn mode or looking straight ahead to the party tones of winter? Or maybe you’re intrigued by our upcoming Christmas collection… either way, we hope you’ll join us on our journey to the Highlands.
