Named after British pop star Sophie Ellis-Bextor, who played a pivotal role in The Cambridge Satchel Co. story, this bag is the fun little sister of The Doctor's Bag. Our clever designers have taken the structured frame of The Doctor's Bag and re-created it on a smaller scale. The ingenious structure of the bag allows The Sophie to open almost 180°, revealing a premium cotton twill lining and giving you full, unencumbered access to your belongings. No more bailing out the contents of your bag to find your favourite red lipstick!

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.

"I wanted a bag to take me in to my post-work life, hanging up my CSC Satchels etc. The Sophie that absolutely meets the brief. It fits the medical paraphernalia I now need to take with me and the way the bag opens allows me, or others, to find what is needed easily and speedily. Oh and it looks, and feels, fabulous"
"I purchase Cambridge Satchel bags for my wife. I like the quality & feel, and that they are crafted in the UK 🇬🇧. The mini Sophie was a birthday gift, the rich green colour is classic and my wife loves to pair all her bags with Jelly Cat charms. Another Great British design! I may even treat myself to a batchel with all the points I’ve collected. Thank you for the quality bags and fantastic service."
"I purchased the Mini Sophie in black. The classic style, craftsmanship and leather quality are brilliant, and the gold hardware adds the finishing touch. It’s the perfect size on the go, for any outfit! Love, love, love it!"
"I bought this as a gift for my sister and she's overjoyed. I've left five stars but she asked that I leave six and a half."
"The Mini Sophie bag is crafted from the most beautifully soft, buttery leather. I truly admire the intricacy of its construction—the precision stitching and quality lining show real attention to detail. My favourite feature is the little gold key, which locks the bag and keeps my belongings safely tucked away. It’s a thoughtful touch that makes the bag feel both elegant and functional."
"Love the bag, practical, pretty and different. Fantastic texture. Design is classic but with a modern twist. Color matches everything. Had a wonderful shopping experience shopping in London Convent Garden shop."
"Best bag you can ever get"
"Beautifully crafted bag. Perfect size and design for the occasion it's required. Amongst similar bags on the market this stands head and shoulders above!"
"My most complimented, highest quality handbag. Would buy time and time again."
"The perfect bag! PROS: Soft leather, solid hardware, quality craftsmanship, neutral color, perfect size, and just the right about of bling. CONS: None This is my first bag from Cambridge Satchel, but it definitely will not be the last. I intend to purchase the larger Sophie to use as an everyday bag. That is, as soon as the larger bag is available with my preferred silver hardware."
