Throughout our lives, we always seem to be on the hunt for the best new thing. We get a thrill from it. However, in the process of this, we often forget how damaging buying endless products may be to the world. That’s why it is always important to choose quality over quantity.

If there is something I know, is that bags are essential for everyday use. Whether it is to pop down to the shops for some fruit or to go on a walk with friends. It brings comfort and it keeps our minds at ease knowing our things are safely stored within.

From the day that they were created in 1983, Marco Campomaggi has been creating bags that last over time and tell something unique and personal. They do not wear out over the course of a season, but in actual fact, due to the choice of leather, they become more beautiful over the years. They are designed to be passed on down through generations, which as a result creates such powerful emotional bonds not only with the bag but also throughout the family.

The bags are made from 100% Italian natural cowhide leather from food industry residues. Once manufactured, the bags are tanned using natural vegetables. The beauty about using tannins from trees such as Mimosa, Chestnut and Oak, is that each bag will react differently according to their individual features.

These bags were not made to be perfect. They were made to be loved for their irregularities and imperfections, which makes them diverse and beautiful in their own unique ways. A beautiful concept which we should apply to every aspect of our lives.

Campomaggi offers those who purchase a bag, a one year guarantee and even a repair service for their products. Each bag comes with a Cream Kit and details of how to preserve their bags and the uniqueness of the product. The cream, which was also invented by Campomaggi himself, brings softness and shine to the leather, protecting it from external agents.
