About this product
What you’ll notice as you carry it
- The diagonal strap lets the bag sit close to the body, leaving your hands free for coffee, keys, tickets, or a slow wander through a weekend market.
- The kilim pattern gives the surface a woven, graphic character, with warm chocolate tones that pair easily with denim, linen, black, and natural neutrals.
- At 250 g, it is light before you pack it, so the feel stays easy for longer days out.
- The adjustable strap lets you change how it falls, higher and neater for city use or lower for a more relaxed festival feel.
- It is a practical textile piece with a craft-led look, made for daily essentials rather than formal occasions.
Cotton, polyester and Turkish kilim weaving
The bag is made from 50% cotton and 50% polyester, combining the natural feel of cotton with the everyday resilience of polyester. The kilim fabric is woven in Turkey, drawing on a flatweave textile tradition known for bold pattern, clear geometry, and a tactile surface without a raised pile.
How to wear and care for it
Wear it across the body so the weight is shared diagonally, or adjust the strap to sit where it feels most natural with your coat, dress, or jumper. Keep it for dry everyday use, and avoid overfilling if you want the woven fabric to keep its shape. For care, spot clean gently and allow it to dry fully before storing.
The textile story behind the pattern
Kilim weaving is closely associated with Anatolia and wider West Asian textile culture, where flatwoven fabrics have long been used for rugs, coverings, bags, and domestic pieces. Unlike pile weaving, a kilim is built from interlaced threads that create a flatter, more graphic surface. On a messenger-style festival bag, that tradition becomes something easy to wear: a piece of pattern and texture that moves with the body, rather than staying on the floor or wall.
