Satchels and bags Chabrand

Chabrand covers three uses. The messenger bag worn cross-body keeps your phone, documents and notebook flat against your body. The baggage with short handles takes over in town. The small leather goods, wallets and pouches, complete the set. The size is chosen based on what you carry every day and the material, leather or coated canvas.

The Chabrand men's messenger bag, cross-body style

A men's Chabrand messenger bag is worn on a detachable shoulder strap, resting against the hip. The main compartment fits a notebook, an e-reader or a tablet depending on the size chosen, while the front pockets hold your phone and cards. Measure what you carry before deciding, a bag that's too big loses its shape, while one that's too snug opens badly.

• Flat format, for papers, a notebook, and your phone only
• Gusseted format, as soon as an e-reader or tablet is involved
• Magnetic flap for quick access, zipper when the contents matter

Leather, canvas and finishes of a Chabrand messenger bag

A Chabrand leather bag develops a patina over time and withstands daily use, whereas the coated canvas is lighter and wipes clean with a cloth. The exact material is listed on each product sheet, it's the first point to check before ordering. A leather bag should be nourished with suitable leather cream, applied in a thin layer and allowed to absorb before polishing.

Everyday Chabrand handbags and wallets

Beyond the cross-body option, a handbag Chabrand with short handles is great for days when you don't need to carry much but still want to look smart. The Chabrand messenger bag and the matching wallet share the same finishes, visible stitching and solid lining. For small leather goods, check the card slots and the presence of a zipped coin pocket. A flap wallet fits in a jacket pocket, while a circular zip model is better stored in the bag and holds more when filled.
