Keep Away from Heat & Sunlight
Protect your bag from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or heat to prevent fading or drying.
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.
Handle with Care

We’re always looking for ways to be more sustainable, because it’s already at the core of what we do. Our leather bags have always been made from natural hides, which are a product of livestock farming, and which would have otherwise gone to waste.
Our products are proudly made in England, where tradition, skill, and attention to detail come together.
We work closely with talented artisans who bring generations of expertise to every piece. Each stage of the making process is handled with care, giving our products their distinctive character and lasting quality.

"Love the bag😍😍😍, the quality, the look and feel is so incredible."
"Buckles need a snap underneath. Very stiff and sturdy. A little too deep for the opening so hard to find things at the bottom, but mainly it’s impractical because it takes too long to get it open and you can’t leave buckles undone because it looks dumb. The other buckle bags in their inventory appear to have a snap under buckle."
"I have this bag in Navy. Doesn’t look like you do that colour anymore. I’ve had my bag for about 4 years now and still get compliments about it. Now have my eye on the black mini. Think that’s Christmas 2025 sorted!"
"Satchels remind me of my childhood and I love the style, but this rucksack needs more holes for the straps to shorten them. I’m 5’4 and it bounces off my bum, rattling everything inside! Now I have to buy a leather work tool to fix this myself, which isn’t ideal."
"Lovely service, fantastic product"
"Absolutely awesome satchel. The quality is first class. As you can tell I’m really pleased with mine. Great service from the ladies in the Cambridge shop."
"I bought this to use as a travel bag and love it! Holds wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, small water bottle, snacks and still has room for a few other essentials while allowing me to be hands free! The buckles feel very secure and theft-resistant and the oxblood color is so rich. I love how sturdy and hard the leather feels. You could run right over this bag and it would hold it’s shape. Such a great purchase!"
"After seeing the bag on my first trip and quickly regretted not purchasing it, when we went back 3 months later I went straight there and purchased the bag. I did have one issue with it. I spent the extra money to have our family name put on it, and it started flaking off the next day. I am working with the company on what they can do after spending the extra money for it not to work, but beyond happy with the bag."
"Great service!"
"Love love this bag!!🫶:skin-tone-2:"
