Ladies’ bagsHow to choose a leather handbag.

Handbags are versatile.
For business, for parties, for dates and for leisure.
These are tips for choosing a bag according to the TPO.

Formal

Choose a formal handbag that can be used for various occasions. The criteria for choosing are not to violate public manners. Reptile leather with rich patterns and those with noticeable luster and metal fittings are not appropriate. The color should be able to match to any style, Japanese or Western, so black is a good choice.
Tips for long-term use are sturdy hand straps, good leather quality, and good stitching. All of these can be seen, touched, and checked at the store, so choose a bag based on these. You will surely find an item that you can carry for a long time.

Choose a hand strap that is comfortable to hold and durable

The handles of formal handbags are made stiff. Check how they feel in your hands and the robustness of the base.

There is a limit to the storability. Try to only carry essentials.

A makeup pouch, a wallet, a mobile phone and an envelope for a gift of money should be enough. If you put more than the capacity, it will lose its shape.

The bag will keep its shape if the bottom is made sturdy and well.

The fragile bottom corner requires good sewing. Also, the soft bottom is prone to losing its shape. Look for a certain hardness.

Durability is key for the body that has the most contact.

The leather of the body is soft, but ones with a core on the inside are highly durable. The presence or absence of the core can be confirmed by feeling the bag.
