Our Leather Belt Bag
I have several SB items and love every one of them... but one common thread of concern is the length of the strap/belt. With this beauty, I had to go to a leather repairman and pay to adjust the shortest length of the belt, as it was still too long for me. I'm on the thin side and don't understand why us less-hippy girls can't be accommodated by SB (without having to pay a third-party vendor to adjust what would be a simple fix by SB - make the shortest length 26" so it can be worn on the waist or hips of a slender gal). And since SB does not offer any customer service in this regard, I'm sure others would appreciate a less-lengthy belt.
I bought this in DCB and love that it is unlined. I feel like because of that design I can shove more things in there than I thought I could. I have quite a few excess straps from Love41 in my arsenal, so I decided to use the short shoulder one from my DCB Minimal Leather Bag. Now, my belt bag fits like a small little shoulder bag under my armpit. Love! I also love that I can take off the straps altogether and just throw it in my Universal Backpack or tote. Suzette does love to give us options!
I really like the simplicity of the design to carry just the essentials. Unfortunately, I had to return it after not looking closely enough at the dimensions. The strap is too long to carry around my 30” waist at the tightest setting (9.5” bag width + 25.5” strap on shortest setting ≈ 35”), and the metal adjustment part dug into my shoulder when trying to carry as a sling. Would probably have worked if carried a little lower around the hips, but that would emphasize the wrong area for me. The only way I can see to improve this would be two different strap length options for XS-M and M-XL. I decided to go with the new crossbody zipper purse instead, which is perfect.
Love love love! This bag is perfect size and forms to your body, can be worn many ways.
i just rec'd my second belt bag, black this time. it is GORGEOUS. i already have the tobacco one, and recently took it on a trip. it was everything i was looking for. it held all my essentials with room to spare. and the patina! well, lets just say it just keeps getting better. also, this bag fits beautifully in the universal bp, also used on this trip. i am hooked on this brand.
