Strathberry bags??

I just got my first Strathberry bag :smile: Do you spray and protect the leather? Is it necessary? If you do, what do you use? Thanks

Hello, I own a red nano tote and a black east/west. I don't spray either of them. I would recommend you find a leather conditioner that is transparent (so that it works with every leather colour) and buff it into your bag once a month. This way you have the extra protection against the rain and the leather stays nicer for longer:
- I find that the handle on the red nano is so stiff that the leather there really needs the extra moisture.
- The black east west is prone to indentations on the flap, where it touches the signature bar, and by condtioning it I am able to make the leather puffy again.
Hope this helps :smile: Enjoy your new handbag :heart:

I’m not sure if they do Black Friday sales anymore but sign up for their mailing list - they usually have sales every quarter or so
 
Trying very hard to resist the Miffy collection rn. Strathberry is preying on my nostalgia.
I have 3 wallets from their Miffy collection and yesterday I grabbed the colbalt miffy bag on their Black Friday sale (still $380!! Urgh) Im all about good leather and nostalgic characters lol if I had more money I would get their all
Collection! Its soooo cute! Also love the Furla and hello kitty / little twin stars collection. I think they release every year as this year they sold out Im looking foward to what they will do in 2021!
 
I'm interested in the East/west mini....can anyone here that owns the East/west mini comment on how much it can hold? It's important to me that I can fit my cell phone into the bag. One one youtube video I watched, it looked like a cell phone was able to fit, but I didn't see many videos showing this.

Here is an example.
Card case, car keys, keys, compact mirror, lipgloss, and a small powerbank.
Can fit a phone in there as well - Samsung Galaxy S10.
There is a slip pocket along the back wall (that is pretty much almost the full size of the width) so you can fit band-aids or receipts or cards.
I wouldn't recc filling it to the max as its a bit tetris-y and might be a bit difficult getting stuff in and out, but if you really needed to it can hold a bit more.

The Strathberry website has a handy dandy table of examples of what phones fit.

Thanks, that was helpful! It looks like it's truly a "mini" bag.
 
I just got the limited edition Strathberry x Hyojoo midi tote and I absolutely love it!i love the thick strap, very comfortable. I wouldn't say its too heavy, there is a little weight to it since its a leather bag but nothing you wouldn't expect. The bar/handle closure is very easy. You can't fill the bag to the top otherwise it won't close, but it should hold all the essentials. I included some pics and mod shots below if it helps anyone, i'm 5'2" for reference :smile:

Hi

I know that this post was made years ago but I was wondering if you could give a quick update on this bag. I'm looking to buy the midi tote but I'm hesitate due to the bar/handle wear.
