I went back and forth about which size London Sling to get, and I’m SO glad I chose the Large. It gives me the casual crossbody style I wanted but actually has enough space for real life! Wallet, sunglasses, phone, keys, makeup, and all the random things I somehow accumulate throughout the day fit comfortably. I also love how understated the design is. There aren’t a million unnecessary details competing with that gorgeous leather. It’s simple, classic, and feels incredibly well constructed. The hardware is beautiful too and gives it just enough polish. This is exactly why I love Love 41—the bag is stylish now, but it doesn’t feel trendy or disposable. I can see myself carrying this for years. Definitely a 5-star purchase! — Kirsten
I didn’t realize how much I needed the London Sling Large until I started carrying it. It has that perfect relaxed shape that looks effortlessly stylish, but it’s also incredibly practical. There’s plenty of room for everything I need during the day without feeling like I’m carrying a giant tote. The leather is what really makes it. It feels substantial and beautifully made, and I love that little marks and variations just add character instead of making me worry about babying my bag. The wide adjustable strap is comfortable, and I can wear it exactly where I want it. This has quickly become the bag I reach for every morning. Five stars and absolutely worth it. — Casey
I already had the small version in tobacco (love it!) and finally pulled the trigger on the chestnut large sling. I wanted a slightly less casual bag, hence the chestnut color. It is absolutely gorgeous and the perfect in between of soft and structured. In a pinch, it fits a 13 inch laptop and it fits all the essentials plus a big water bottle. The way it drapes around my body makes it look a lot sleeker / smaller than it is. Thank you, Suzette, this design is an absolute winner!
beautiful bag, however my wife was disapponted and was hoping it was the lighter color like in one of your photos.
As a former New Yorker who practically lived in black leather year-round (and worked in Fashion PR and NYFW for over a decade) I can honestly say the London Sling Large in Tumbled Black has become an absolute staple in my wardrobe. It has that rare combination of effortless style, practicality, and timeless sophistication that is almost impossible to find. The moment I opened it, I knew this was going to become my everyday bag. The tumbled black leather is incredibly rich and luxurious while still feeling relaxed and understated enough to wear with literally everything. It somehow works equally well with an oversized coat and boots in the city, casual travel outfits, or dressed-up evenings out. What I love most is the shape and functionality. It carries so much more than you expect without ever feeling bulky or heavy. The design feels modern and elevated while still being practical enough for real everyday life. I can fit all of my essentials comfortably while still keeping everything organized and easy to access. The craftsmanship is exactly what I have come to expect from Saddleback: beautifully overbuilt, durable, and made to age gracefully over time. The leather already has that soft, broken-in feel while still looking incredibly polished and expensive. I have owned designer bags that cost significantly more than this, and honestly, this feels far more special and authentic. It does not scream for attention, yet constantly gets compliments because it simply looks effortlessly beautiful. If you are looking for that one black leather bag that becomes part of your everyday uniform and somehow works with everything, this is it. Timeless, functional, and absolutely stunning.
