Note: full grain leather is a natural material, which may have small traces, veins or marks inherent to the material. Scratches can be easily removed by lightly rubbing them with a cloth impregnated with vegetable oil. The color of the leather might slightly varies depending on the batches.

Oil immersed leather products can be prone by nature to colour transference on light fabrics. To avoid that, please make sure to dry your leather if it gets wet and try avoid contact with light coloured fabrics. If you however notice some stains, don't worry, it come out in the wash.

Frequently Asked Questions

+

What fits in the Atakama?

12 L, tidy: an interior compartment with a computer interlayer, a zip pocket, a slot pocket and a cell phone pocket. Enough for the essentials of a day out or a short trip. If you carry more than that daily, the MANOA leather messenger bag is the bigger cut of the same family.

+

Do you carry it by hand or on the shoulder?

Both. The shoulder strap is adjustable and removable, so the Atakama switches from handbag to shoulder bag in a few seconds, whichever way the day is going.

+

What shade is the tan exactly?

A warm tan, on full grain cow leather. The colour can vary slightly from one batch to the next, and it deepens where your hands work it: the leather patinas instead of staying frozen. The bag you buy is the lightest it will ever be in colour.

+

Is the leather waterproof?

It is water resistant, not waterproof. Full grain leather sheds rain and splashes, but if the bag gets soaked, let it dry before storing it, and keep damp leather away from light coloured fabrics: oil immersed leather can transfer colour.

+

Is it a men's or a women's bag?

It is unisex. The clean lines and the tan leather read as classic rather than gendered, and the adjustable strap sets the drop for any frame.

+

Who is the Atakama not for?

The hasp closure asks for a beat more attention than a zip, and at 1.8 kg the full grain leather has real presence on the shoulder. If you want a featherweight, quick-zip everyday bag, the Sandqvist Everyday Messenger is the modern answer. The Atakama is the one that ages with you.

+

How do I care for the leather?

Rub light scratches with a cloth impregnated with vegetable oil and they fade into the grain. Let the bag dry if it gets wet, away from direct heat. Like every bag we make, the Atakama is covered by our 2-year warranty.
