Clean Regularly

Wipe your bag with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt.

Use a Dust Bag

Store your bag in its Cambridge Satchel dust bag when not in use to protect it from scratches and dust.

Condition Leather

Apply leather conditioner periodically to maintain suppleness and prevent drying.

Proudly British

Proudly British, Cambridge Satchel values quality craftsmanship and age-old tradition. But the brand is also anchored in the present, revitalising timeless designs with the eccentric, bold and daring spirit that runs through British culture.

Because British spirit is so deep-rooted, it’s not afraid to dare. Because it’s so distinctive, it enjoys an unexpected twist.

Cutting Edge Craftsmanship

Our bags are handcrafted by talent expert artisans in our very own workshop in Leicestershire, many of whom have been with us since our beginnings.

Using a combination of traditional skills and innovative design, they create timeless silhouettes offset with bold colour-blocking or contrasting patterns. The result: British heritage styles updated with an eccentric spirit.
