Canvas & genuine cowhide leather36 x 28 x 10 cm6 colors
The NOE vintage satchel combines two materials that have proven their worth on the road: a thick, tightly woven canvas and genuine cowhide leather with an oiled and patinated look. The large leather flap, fastened by two metal-buckled straps, covers the entire top of the bag, giving it the look of a traditional reporter or messenger bag. Measuring 36 x 28 x 10 cm, it easily accommodates a tablet, documents, a notebook, a pencil case, and your small daily essentials. The interior, lined with polyester, is organized with a zippered pocket and patch pockets. It can be carried by hand using its leather handle, or over the shoulder with its shoulder strap, which features a leather shoulder pad and snap hooks. Six canvas colors are available, all paired with the same brown leather: beige, army, green, coffee, blue, and black. A satchel with an adventurous spirit, equally at home in the office or on the weekend.

Materials
Canvas and genuine cowhide leather: the duo of field bags
The combination of canvas and leather was born in travel and field gear: the canvas provides lightness and flexibility to the bag's body, while the leather reinforces the areas subject to the most wear, such as the flap, handle, and attachments. It has long been found on messenger satchels, photographer bags, and student schoolbags.
The genuine cowhide leather of the NOE has an oiled finish with irregular highlights that show light marks from friction: these nuances are part of its charm and will deepen with use to form a unique patina. The interior lining is made of polyester, which is durable and easy to clean.

The reporter satchel spirit
The NOE draws from the history of messenger bags and photographer satchels: a rectangular silhouette, a generous flap, and buckled straps that adjust with a quick movement. Nothing superfluous, everything is designed to be carried for a long time.
The contrast between the matte canvas and the oiled leather creates immediate visual depth. The aged metal rivets, buckles, and snap hooks complete this vintage vocabulary.
In our photos, it is worn just as well over the shoulder with a denim shirt as it is by hand with a more formal outfit: a versatile satchel that develops a patina over the course of its journeys.

Care: neither the canvas nor the leather are machine washable. Treat stains on the canvas with a damp cloth and mild soap, without rubbing the leather. Oiled leather may show marks from friction: a light buffing with a dry cloth is enough to fade the traces.

Frequently asked questions
What materials are used for the NOE satchel?
The NOE satchel combines thick canvas for the bag body and genuine cowhide leather for the flap, handle, straps, reinforcements, and shoulder pad. The leather has an oiled finish with irregular highlights, typical of vintage bags, which develops a patina over time. The interior is lined with polyester, a durable and easy-to-maintain material. This blend results in a bag that is lighter than an all-leather model, while maintaining the robustness of leather where the bag is used most daily.
What are its dimensions?
The NOE satchel measures 36 cm wide, 28 cm high, and 10 cm deep. This format allows you to carry a tablet, documents, a notebook, a pencil case, a charger, a wallet, and a phone. For a laptop, measure your device and compare it to the satchel's dimensions, keeping a margin for the lining and seams: a compact model may fit, but a large screen will be too wide. If you have any doubts about your device's compatibility, our team is happy to help before you place your order.
How does the satchel close?
The NOE closes with a large leather flap that covers the entire upper part of the bag. This flap is held by two leather straps with metal buckles, just like traditional messenger bags. Beneath the buckles, hidden metal snaps facilitate quick opening without having to undo the straps each time. This closure effectively protects the contents from dust and unwanted attention, while giving the satchel its characteristic and highly recognizable vintage look.
How is the interior organized?
The main compartment, lined with polyester, accommodates the bulkier items: tablet, folders, notebook, or pencil case. Our photos show a zippered interior pocket, ideal for securely storing papers, keys, or a wallet, as well as patch pockets for a phone, pens, or a power bank. This organization prevents you from searching for your belongings at the bottom of the bag. On the front, under the flap, the canvas creates two pleated volumes that provide a little extra room for loading the bag.
How is the NOE satchel carried?
It can be carried in two ways. By hand, using its leather handle attached to the top, for a classic briefcase look. Over the shoulder or cross-body, using its shoulder strap attached by metal snap hooks and equipped with a leather shoulder pad that distributes the weight and prevents the strap from slipping. Cross-body carrying leaves your hands free to move around town, take public transport, or travel. You can switch from one carrying style to another in seconds depending on the moment.
What canvas colors are available?
The NOE is available in six canvas colors: Beige (light sand), Army (military khaki), Green (soft, verdigris-leaning), Coffee (tone-on-tone brown), Blue (deep), and Black, which appears in our photos in a dark tone leaning toward gray-blue. On all versions, the leather of the flap, handle, and straps remains brown. Beige and Coffee play on softness, Army and Green on the field spirit, and Blue and Black on a more graphic contrast.
How do I care for the canvas and leather?
For the canvas, brush it regularly with a soft brush and treat stains locally with a damp cloth and mild soap, without soaking the fabric or rubbing the neighboring leather. For the genuine cowhide leather, dust it with a dry cloth and apply a nourishing cream once or twice a year, after testing it on a discreet area. Oiled leather may show marks from friction: buffing with a cloth will soften these traces. If the bag gets wet, let it air dry away from heat sources.
