Leather variations – Satchel.

Leather variations

Leather is a natural product and will vary from hide to hide and even within a hide.  Bags that have a seam in the center most likely will not be an exact match.  This is not a flaw in the bag, it is just how leather works.  We do our best to make the leathers match as close as possible but because of variance in each hide it is not always possible.  
This bag is made of one continuous piece of leather.
This is not a flaw, this is a natural variation in color on a hide. 
This bag is an example of a variant in color where the seams match up. 
This is not a flaw, it is a natural variation in color on a hide.

This is a snippet from one of our suppliers FAQ's about distressed leather:

My bag has scratches, is it damaged?

No, this is a beautiful feature of natural leather and the markings will be unique to you. All products are lightly treated so the natural characteristics of the hide can be showcased. Since the sealant is breathable, the leather will patina over time and any scratches that occur will work themselves out. If you want to accelerate a scratch removal, you can either set the bag indirectly from a heat source to warm the wax in the finish. With a damp cloth, rub the scratch out.

Beautiful bag. Excellent quality.

UPDATE: After leaving my initial 1 star review, I was contacted by Satchel with an offer to remake my Pipers. The lengths Mary Kate went to make sure I was satisfied were very much appreciated. She sent photos of the remade pipers before shipping to make sure I was happy with the quality, spent extra time on the packing and presentation, shipped them out within 1 week and even followed up to make sure they arrived. It was a stark contrast to my initial experience but I am very happy with the final products I received.

Love the size of the clutch but was very disappointed with the quality/craftsmanship.

Classic & stylish design

I am a backpack lover and the Sophie is the perfect balance for me. I love the customization that goes into every piece. With the front & back outside pockets, it makes your necessities easily accessible and secure. The hide on this one is phenomenal!

Very Useful Little Case!

I love my bi fold card cases! My colors are so pretty! I use one for IDs and the other for credit cards. I will definitely buy a couple more when you get colors in stock that will work for me. I love pinks and greens!
