REVIEWS
I bought this strappy pouchette for weekend outings and it has quickly become my favorite small bag. It holds my phone and a lipstick, and the strap keeps everything close to my body. The shape is neat and compact, so it sits easily against my side. The stitching along the seams is tidy, and the hardware on the strap feels sturdy. I wore it to a street fair and then to dinner the same evening without changing a thing. It looks more expensive than it is, and I have already recommended it to my sister. The strap length also worked for me without any fiddling at all.
Since retiring I go out with just a few essentials, and this pouchette suits my days perfectly. It holds my phone and a small handkerchief, and the strap sits lightly on my shoulder. The finish is soft and the closure is easy for my fingers to operate. I have used it for lunches with friends and an evening at the theater. It has not shown any wear after several months. My daughter commented on how neat it looked, and I have not stopped smiling about that. It is the sort of little bag that makes getting dressed more enjoyable. I am delighted with how easy it is to wear.
This pouchette is well made, and the leather has a lovely hand-feel. My only wish is for a strap that shortens further, because even on the shortest setting it sits a bit low on my frame. I have tied a small knot to solve this, which works fine. The size is perfect for a phone and a few essentials, and the stitching is clean. I get compliments on it often, especially from friends who appreciate good craftsmanship. Overall a very good bag with a minor quirk that does not stop me from enjoying it every weekend. I would still buy it again tomorrow.
I took this pouchette to three outdoor festivals this summer and it held up through heat and a lot of dancing. The strap keeps it secure against my body, and I never worried about losing anything in the crowd. It holds my phone and some cash, with a little space left over for sunscreen. The finish has stayed in good shape despite the rough conditions, and a damp cloth removed the dust easily. It is light enough that I forgot I was wearing it for most of each day. I will take it again next year without question. It was easy to wipe clean after the final day. The one thing I would change is a softer strap edge when it sits against bare skin.
