Experience a Fusion of Vintage Inspiration & Luxurious Feel

Introducing Catalonia, our newest vintage canvas shoulder bag that beautifully blends classic silhouettes with a rich color palette. This unique fusion gives our retro messenger bag a refined, stylish look—setting you apart from ordinary nylon alternatives.

Chic yet minimalist, this handcrafted bag is perfect for work, study, or everyday life. With its practical layout and organized compartments, it’s an essential accessory that effortlessly adapts to any outfit or activity—making it your ideal daily companion.


A Practical & Versatile Everyday Must-Have

While this bag serves as a fashion statement, it’s also your reliable partner for day-to-day tasks. Designed for efficiency, its clean and minimal layout keeps everything neatly organized.

The exterior features a padded anti-theft zip pocket on the back for quick access to your essentials. A wide flap with magnetic brass buckles conceals the main zippered opening, ensuring the safety of your belongings.

Inside, the bag is thoughtfully structured with two main compartments (approx. 9L total capacity) separated by a spacious zippered pocket, along with additional slip and zip pockets for further organization.


WHY CATALONIA STANDS OUT:

  • Affordable: Enjoy premium materials at a fair price—ensuring durability and long-term use.

  • Lightweight: Made of cotton canvas, this bag remains light and easy to carry all day.

  • Weather-Resistant: Constructed from durable, full-grain leather and canvas (traditionally used for boat sails), this bag stands the test of time.

  • Modern & Elegant: Not only practical, but also a chic style piece that complements multiple aesthetics.

  • Functional: With several pockets, a secure top closure, and a roomy 9L storage space, it fits your everyday needs.

  • Unisex: Available in multiple natural tones, this retro canvas handbag suits everyone, regardless of gender.

About me

Each bag carries its own story, made from the best materials I can find. In my workshop, I focus on perfecting every detail so that each stitch is sturdy and perfect. I appreciate you taking the time to view my work, and I hope these bags will serve you well, just as they gave me pride while making them. Thank you for being a part of this journey.

FAQ

Every bag I make is crafted with care and attention to detail. I personally select the best leathers and materials and oversee every step of the process in my workshop. My goal is to create a bag that not only looks beautiful, but also lasts for years.

Leather is a beautiful, natural material that only gets more beautiful with age. To keep your bag in top condition, I recommend using leather conditioner every few months and storing the bag in a cool, dry place when not in use. If you ever have any questions about maintaining your bag, feel free to let us know, we are always here to help.

I want you to love your bag as much as I did while making it. For whatever reason, is the bag not quite what you expected? No problem - you can return it within 14 days of receiving it. Just send me an email and I'll take care of the rest.

I just can't get over the quality of this backpack! The leather feels full and real, and the design is both practical and stylish. I've been using mine for about three months now, and the wear and tear only adds character to the bag. If you're looking for something made with care and attention to detail, this is it.

I bought my John-Hartford backpack for a recent trip and was immediately impressed. The leather is thick but soft to the touch, and the inside has just enough space. It stands up to daily use and feels like it will last a lifetime. I can see myself using this bag for years to come.

Brian T.

I had been looking for a leather backpack that combines style and durability for some time, and John-Hartford does not disappoint. The craftsmanship is impressive - every stitch seems deliberately set. It's one of those bags that only gets more beautiful with age. I use it for both work and weekend trips, and it always fits.

Amanda L.

I've worn out quite a few backpacks, but this one is really a gamechanger. The leather is soft but incredibly sturdy, and I'm sure it will age beautifully. John-Hartford really knows his stuff when it comes to quality. It's worth every euro, and I'm already looking at the next bag.

I wasn't exactly sure what to expect from a handmade leather backpack, but John-Hartford has exceeded my expectations. The leather has such a rugged, vintage look that I love. It is functional, comfortable and just looks great. I get compliments on it regularly.

Michael K.

Without a doubt the best backpack I have ever owned. You can tell right away that John-Hartford puts a lot of love into his products. The leather is top quality, and there is plenty of room for my laptop, notebooks and more. It has become my regular bag - both for commuting and weekend walks.
