The story of this bag · BCH171

Small imperfections in the leather.

These products are FLAWED pieces or SAMPLES that you can buy at a much-reduced price to give them a chance. Read the flaw description on each product carefully and bear in mind that the photos showing the flaw may vary in colour, as they're home-made photos meant only to show the flaw clearly. Go by the original product photos for a more accurate colour.

We bet you've had more than one bad day lately. One of those days when everything you touch seems cursed. Craftsmanship isn't perfect, it's simply magical and unique. Working with your hands is, precisely, human. And all it takes is a slightly shaky hand one day for a bag to stop being perfect. But here's the good part: no two are alike. Let's celebrate imperfection and things with soul. And let's hope these bags get a happy ending. Shall we give them a chance?

Sofía Madre has been with us from the very beginning. She is one of the ones who opened the way, and she is still among the most recognisable at Labienhecha: you spot her from a distance and you know whose she is.

You met her in recycled leather. Now, for the first time, we are making her in premium genuine leather. And yes, the leather changes, but Sofía Madre's character does not.

She is still the bag that works for everything: roomy and structured, with space for the essentials, your water bottle, your fruit, your wash bag, and also for documents and an iPad. We carry a laptop in her too (with the zip open, mind you). Wear her over the shoulder with the strap included, across the body with an extra 140 cm strap, or briefcase-style with a short 70-80 cm one, which is how we love her.

What changes is the body. In vegetable-tanned cowhide, rigid and structured, Sofía Madre holds herself up: she does not flatten, she does not sag, and she keeps her line wherever she goes.

They are not coming back to stay. They are coming back for you to keep.

Measurements:

- (Width) 28 cm x (Height) 28 cm x (Depth) 8.5 cm.

Other details:

- Zip closure (a joy to use. YKK model with a hand-made leather pull).

- Two inner pockets.

- One strap included (100 cm). Measured end to end.

- Edges sanded and painted for extra protection.

100% HANDMADE · PREMIUM GENUINE LEATHER

Handmade in our workshop in Málaga, in genuine vegetable-tanned cowhide: organic, natural and biodegradable, certified (LWG) and free from toxins, chrome and heavy metals. It is a rigid, structured leather — it gives body and shape so the bag will not flatten or lose its form — and it is also water-repellent: it repels water and stains and cleans easily.

⠀

IT IS A UNIQUE PIECE

Like all natural leather, every piece is one of a kind. A structured bag looks good and lasts for years; like a good piece of solid wood furniture, if it ever gets scratched it can almost always be repaired — and its story stays with you.

CARE · RIGID LEATHER (WATER-REPELLENT)

A bag does not last because of what it costs, but because of how you look after it — and this leather is grateful:

  • Wax: feed it with our natural beeswax a couple of times a year. A little on a soft cloth, in circles and without rushing; let it rest so it soaks in.
  • Dust: a dry or slightly damp cotton cloth.
  • Stains: lift them off dry. Being water-repellent, it cleans inside and out without any drama.
  • Shape: store it stuffed so it keeps its structure, and always in its dust bag, never in plastic.
  • Sun and heat: avoid prolonged exposure; if it gets wet, let it dry at room temperature, never with a hairdryer.
  • Knocks: look after the corners and avoid hard rubbing. If it gets scratched, almost everything can be fixed.
  • Avoid: supermarket creams, body oils, brushes on the outside, ammonia and the washing machine.

→ Can I wear it across the body with the strap included? No. Sofía Madre comes with a 100 cm strap that lets you carry her on the shoulder, but not across the body. For that we recommend the 140 cm strap. Bear in mind that the usable length of the 140 cm strap (not counting the part taken up at the sides) is 107 cm.

→ Does it have pockets? Yes, it has two inner pockets (without zips) so you can organise the inside however you like.

→ Do the bags include the strap? Yes, every lady comes with her strap.

→ How is it different from the Sofía Madre in recycled leather? The design is the same. What changes is the material: genuine vegetable-tanned cowhide, rigid, structured and water-repellent.

All our bags come with a handmade cotton dust bag.

Our packaging is designed to reduce our negative impact, so we only use certified plastic-free materials.

This bag is available for immediate shipping.

And the best part: plastic-free!

Our suppliers are local and Spanish. We like working close by and with trust.

That's why we always choose genuine Spanish leather from tanneries that work with the utmost respect and are always certified (Leather Working Group).

They give us guarantees not only on sustainability policies, but also on quality.

It's the easiest thing in the world because it barely needs any care.

We always go for materials that last and endure. Genuine leather is a material made to last a lifetime.

In terms of care, they need very little attention. Basic everyday cleaning and, at most, a deep nourishing treatment every now and then, ideally with natural or leather-specific products.

This leather gets better with time and it's a very hard-wearing material, easy to care for and very forgiving and tough.

The rigid leather we use in our collection is also water-resistant for greater durability.

Our soft leather is the most forgiving thing in the world, so you won't have any drama. And if you do, these are leathers that can be repaired naturally.
