Shepherd's Bag

A timeless, hands-free companion — built to last.

Inspired by the simplicity and practicality of the traditional shepherd’s bag, this contemporary version is designed for modern life: understated, elegant, and made to be used every day.

Each bag is sewn locally by our trusted seamstress, Sally Cowell, using our own Lake District Tweeds. Lightweight yet exceptionally strong, the bag features a flat, wide strap that sits comfortably across the body — keeping your hands free and your belongings close.

There are no zips, buckles, or fussy details — just clean lines and a single internal pocket for your phone, keys, or other small essentials. It’s a bag designed with purpose, not embellishment.

These are Forever Bags — made to be loved, repaired, and carried for years. A simple, thoughtful alternative to disposable totes and short-lived “bags for life.”
