I first discovered The Leather Satchel Co. through an auction purchase, and I was blown away by the quality. The variety of bags, colours, and customisation options is incredible, and I’ve built a collection that I absolutely love.
Over the years, I’ve followed the team at pop-up shops, exhibitions, and special events. The kindness and passion of Keith, Gail, and the whole crew shine through in everything they do. My collection has grown over time, and every bag is a joy to use. Choosing which one to take out has become part of my outfit planning!
The customer service is second to none—Being able to create custom colourways makes creating custom designs so exciting, and their aftersales care is fantastic. Every question is answered quickly, and the team always goes above and beyond.
Since joining the Owner's Club, I’ve made friends from all over the world. It’s such a friendly and welcoming group, full of people who share my love of these amazing bags. I’m so glad to be part of this wonderful community.

The Leather Satchel Club isn’t just a community - it’s a magical space where inspiration and creativity flow endlessly. Fellow “satchel sniffers” and the Ministry of Leather Magic provide ideas and encouragement that make every bag feel even more special.
One of the things I love most are the fabulous opportunities we get. I was lucky enough to be one of the first to own a mini mini music case, and the excitement of receiving a surprise gift with a new addition is unmatched.
Every moment with TLSC feels like unwrapping a little piece of joy.
But it’s not just about the bags. It’s about the people. Through this incredible Owner's Group, I’ve formed friendships that span the globe - from just down the road from me in Crosby, England, to as far as Singapore, Australia, and America.
It’s a testament to how something as simple as a beautiful satchel can bring people together in the most wonderful way.

Whilst window shopping, I stumbled across The Leather Satchel Co. and was immediately drawn to the quality of their bags. I initially thought they’d be out of my price range, but Keith explained the history of the business, their customisation options, and the costs—and I was pleasantly surprised! I bought a small festival satchel, and that was the start of my love for this company.
The customer service and aftercare are second to none. Every enquiry is handled swiftly and with the friendliest team you’ll ever come across. It’s truly unique in this day and age.
Joining the Owner's Club was another highlight. It’s an amazing community of like-minded people from around the world, sharing ideas, customisations, and inspiration.
After many years and many more bags, I wouldn’t shop anywhere else. The confidence I’ve gained in creating custom designs has made my bags unique and a standout from the crowd. And that small festival satchel? It’s still going strong and looks as good as new.

I discovered The Leather Satchel Co. on a birthday trip to the Epcot Centre in Disney World, where I was drawn to the classic designs and clean lines.
I left with an 11” satchel in Loch Blue, and it wasn’t until I got home that I realised the handbag rabbit hole I’d fallen into!
I fell in love with the variety of designs, endless colour options, and incredible customisation possibilities.
Joining Owner's Club introduced me to a worldwide community of people who share the same passion for quality craftsmanship and excellent customer service.
Keith Hanshaw and his team are incredibly hands-on and genuinely care about making sure you’re happy with your purchase.
Whether it’s my mini music case, my backpack, or my pixie bag, each has become a favourite for different occasions. It's a truly magical place where we can create almost anything you we imagine!

I discovered The Leather Satchel Co. just before Christmas and purchased a stunning red patent leather sporran bag with a monogram for my eldest daughter.
The beautiful packaging and incredible craftsmanship hooked me instantly.
Soon after, I won a bid for a gorgeous soft yellow satchel in one of their secret auctions.
Not long after, I was lucky enough to win a bid for a gorgeous soft yellow satchel in one of their secret auctions. I requested a custom monogram, and Keith himself drafted several designs, creating the perfect result.
Since then, I’ve added a portrait work tote, mini music case, festival satchel, and medium notebook to my collection.The joy of unboxing each piece, complete with thoughtful gifts, never fades. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are unmatched and continue to inspire pride and delight.
This incredible community of satchel lovers shares a passion for these works of art. Thank you, Keith Hanshaw, for creating something so special.

I first discovered The Leather Satchel Co. years ago when they had their Albert Dock store, in Liverpool.
I knew immediately I wanted a bag and decided on a Loch Blue Sporran. As I prefer crossbody bags, I mentioned that I’d like the strap to be a bit longer. To my surprise, the lovely, patient man serving me said, “Hang on, I think I’ve got what’s needed to make a new strap. Can you give me 15–20 minutes?” I came back, and he'd made a new strap for me to the exact length, and I now had my perfect bag and couldn’t believe such incredible service exists!
That lovely, patient man was, of course, Keith! 😁
Since then, I’ve added a patent bullring bag, that I ordered online, and have also bought smaller pieces like notebooks and bookmarks as gifts.
I love this little Owner's community and am constantly amazed by the creativity and beauty of these bags.

I discovered The Leather Satchel Co. about 15 years ago while teaching at a university in Singapore, a quick web search for UK-made leather satchels led me to thier website.
They introduced me to the idea of designing my own bespoke satchel. I placed my first order, and when the bag arrived, I was completely sold.
Since then, I’ve built a vast collection of bags in many sizes and colours: satchels, music cases, totes, and backpacks.
The quality of their craftsmanship, the personal customer service, the quick turnaround, and the active, friendly Owner's Club make owning their bags a truly unique experience.
What sets them apart, is their ethical sourcing and commitment to sustainability, they genuinely care about every aspect of their business, and this is why I haven’t bought a bag from any other company in more than 10 years.

My first Leather Satchel Co. bag was a Satchel I purchased on a resale site.
I loved the colour (Boysenberry) and the classic style just from the pictures, but I was blown away by the quality when it arrived!
I immediately ordered a portrait backpack, which quickly became my go-to bag.
I love the leather, the style, the ability to customise, and the amazing customer service.
Keith and the team are so kind and helpful—I only wish I lived close enough to meet them in person.
My favourite part of discovering these bags has been the community. Everyone in the Owner's Club is so friendly and creative.
It’s one of the few groups I visit daily and actively interact with, and it’s made owning these beautiful bags even more special.

As a self-confessed handbag addict, I stumbled across The Leather Satchel Co. on Instagram and instantly fell in love with their satchels.
When I realised they had a shop at the Albert Dock, in Liverpool at that time, then I knew I had to visit.
For my 40th birthday, I decided to have a custom bag made. I chose red, my favourite colour, and had a flower print added to the front pocket, beautifully copied from a photo I’d taken. To make it truly mine, I had my name embossed inside and a matching keyring crafted. Why not make it one-of-a-kind?
Six and a half years later, my bag is still as good as new. The quality and aftercare surpass any 'designer' company, who mass-produce their bags. Every piece feels special, and owning one makes you part of a little leather satchel cult!

I discovered The Leather Satchel Co. while searching for uniquely British handbags. As an Anglophile, I wanted something truly special from England, and The Leather Satchel Co. delivered in every way.
From the start, the service has been excellent and personal, and I love that the businesses practices are sustainable and their craftspeople are celebrated for their skills.
The bags and accessories I’ve received are heirloom-quality pieces that perfectly express my style.
The community surrounding the company is uplifting, diverse, and full of joy. We share our designs with encouragement and excitement, and it’s clear that The Leather Satchel Co. has created more than just a product - they’ve built a welcoming community for everyone.

Last summer, after recovering from a nasty leg fracture, I needed a secure bag to keep my valuables safe inside my beloved straw basket.
My first search led me to another leather satchel shop, but I was shocked by their high prices — despite owning a Paul Smith bag! I bought a sunglasses case from them, but the quality and sturdiness left me unimpressed - as my long-suffering husband can attest to.
Then I discovered The Leather Satchel Co. and found exactly what I needed.
The craftsmanship and value stood out immediately. Since then, I haven’t looked back, or at any other leather satchel maker!
