Satchel bag Charles

Inspired by doctors’ satchels, the Charles is a new take on the traditional style of bags used in the profession – unlined vegetable-tanned leather with a raw-cut edge – with added innovative features to make travelling easier:

A large outside zipped pocket on the back of the bag to help it stay securely on a luggage trolley. Two small side pockets for the items you need to keep close at hand.

The Charles satchel closes with a clasp engraved with the Bleu de Chauffe logo, combining accessibility, practicality, and security.

Inside, the Charles satchel has a protective laptop sleeve for laptops up to 16 inches MacBook Pro, and a removable zipped pocket featuring the Bleu de Chauffe origin label, dated and signed by the artisan who created the bag.

Handmade in France.

Today, more than 90% of leather in the world undergoes a chrome tanning process which uses heavy chemical components. Bleu de Chauffe has a different approach. Our leather is vegetable tanned which ensures better quality and more sustainable leather, a soft natural touch, and a patina which improves over the years.
