I am driving myself a bit mad trying to find something that I’m sure should be available …
Would much rather it was leather, but definitely NOT fake leather (open to other fabrics)
Quite large, looks like a tote bag rather than a travel holdall/rucksack
Zip across at least most of the top
A pocket or two inside, zipped one outside would be great
Decent length handles to comfortably go over the shoulder even if in winter clothes
Would prefer not to have gold ‘hardware’ on it - just about any other colour fine
And, the holy grail … a sleeve to fit over a suitcase handle.
Obviously the oft-recommended MIA Tui Jennie is not going to do it, on the leather requirement.
There are some makers on Etsy who customise and it feels like I should be able to get all this, but in reality it’s not working out.
Am reasonably open to a fair budget, if I could find the right thing. If anyone has seen something I’m missing, would be much appreciated.
