Full Grain Leather Crossbody Tote Bag
Named after the California madrone—recognized for its richly colored bark and enduring natural character—The Madrone is a statement in texture, contrast, and craftsmanship.
Its full-grain cowhide body features a distinctive high-shine vintage finish with natural wrinkles, tonal depth, and expressive character. Contrasting leather handles and trim, floral-inspired metal studs, and antique brass-tone hardware complete the look.
Dual top handles, a detachable adjustable strap, a secure zipper closure, and an organized interior make The Madrone as practical as it is distinctive.
High-Shine Leather With Vintage Character
The Madrone is crafted from full-grain cowhide with a vintage-finished surface—visible wrinkles, creases, color depth, and a distinctive natural luster that catches light differently across every fold. This is not synthetic patent leather. The natural grain and dimensional character of genuine leather remain visible throughout.
With use, the leather will continue to soften and develop even more individual character.
Distinctive Two-Tone Design
Every colorway is finished with contrasting leather handles, trim, and zipper pulls. The color-blocked construction gives each version its own personality:
- Cognac — warm cognac leather with deep brown trim
- Burgundy — rich burgundy leather with vivid cognac accents
- Forest Green — deep green leather framed by dark brown trim
Floral-inspired sunburst metal studs accent the handle attachments, while antique brass-tone rings, clasps, and zipper hardware reinforce the bag's vintage identity.
Designed to Be Carried Your Way
Dual rounded leather handles offer a polished top-handle look. The adjustable, detachable strap converts The Madrone to shoulder or crossbody carry in seconds. A full-length top zipper secures your belongings, while the fully lined, divided interior keeps essentials organized. At five inches deep, it holds everything you need without feeling oversized.
Honest Leather. Zero Logo Tax.
The Madrone is not designed to be replaced at the end of a season. Choose the color that feels like yours—and let the leather tell the rest of the story.

Natural Leather & Care
Full-grain leather preserves the natural surface of the hide. Every Madrone will have its own grain patterns, wrinkles, tonal variations, and occasional marks—these are part of its authenticity, not defects. Your bag may not look identical to product photographs. That individuality is part of what makes it uniquely yours.
