Hi Maddison,
Thanks for taking the time to leave us some feedback.
We're so happy you think the bags are of "Exceptional Quality" with "Beautiful Craftsmanship" and that they are 'Perfect" for everyday use.
That's almost exactly what we are aiming for! (...we just also include 3 extra requirements which are creating them in a sustainable method, with ethical manufacturing, and an affordable price tag.)
We'd love to know what else we could include to get that last missing star to change your experience with us from a 'slightly better than average' 4 star review to a "Wow, I love this company and the way they do things - 5 STARS!"
Thanks again, but what can we do better?

100% recommend!
I cannot fault The Leather Satchel Co. I have purchased my second bag and I am over the moon with it. The delivery time was accurate and I was given updates along the way. They even popped in a beautiful gift with the order!
Having so much choice on the design makes it so personal to you. You can order swatches for a low price which can then be offset against the bag cost. You can choose between silver or gold hardware and any pockets you want adding. I’ve also loved the option to monogram the bags and have done this on both bags. I really appreciate that the bags do not have brash logos across them and have an elegance that you won’t find anywhere else.
Finally, the customer service has been excellent both times, especially when I needed to change the bag strap length!

We just ♥love♥ it, when people get more bags from us (because it let's us know we are doing things right!) We hope we can always serve you! 🙏
Phenomenal Company!
I cannot recommend this company highly enough. Absolutely faultless workmanship, the most beautiful satchel ever, stunningly packaged, made and sent with love that you can feel from the moment you pick up the box AND the highest level of customer care I have ever experienced, they should have 100 stars!!

I would definitely recommend the Leather Satchel Co. From my first email asking about specific product to last email when I got confirmation that my item has been sent everything went smoothly. The item arrived well packed and the backpack I've ordered is very well made and looks so cool. I would definitely recommend it. I will be ordering next year for my daughter's birthday as she loves it too. Thank you:)

I’m blown away by Leather Satchel co and their impeccable attention to detail and customer care. I made a mishap on my order which they rectified and even delt with my faffing over different types of leather. Order arrived today and it’s beyond stunning and worth every penny. I even found a free leather card holder in my order. You are one in a million and have converted me into a life time shopper. It was a true joy to shop with you and a real experience. Merry Christmas

Beautiful, high quality bags
I now have several bags from the leather satchel company and I love them all! I have also gifted them. Two bags I have ordered have been bespoke. The help and service has always been great. For my latest purchase, I bought a bespoke mini tote. I found it difficult to choose my colours but Shaun helped me by responding to questions and sending mock up pictures. I now have my perfect bag and the quality is outstanding as always. Once ordered, I was updated about delivery and it arrived beautifully packaged soon affer with a little surprise gift of a lovely tassel keyring too - thank you!
These bags last and last and improve with age. Highly recommend this lovely, family-run, small business.

Thank you L'Meg. I will pass on your comments to Shaun, he will be happy to know his efforts are helping people and are being recognised. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and your endorsement - we truly appreciate it!
First Class Service!
Contact and communication with the LSC’ was First Class. Shaun was exceptional dealing with the repair to my satchel. Nothing was a problem. The repair was dealt with professionally and a speedy service.
My beautiful satchel was returned to me promptly, the repair itself was faultless. Shaun also had a new strap fitted for me, which is now the perfect length. A little surprise was in my parcel with my satchel beautifully wrapped, a triangle shape leather purse so pretty and such a lovely gesture.
ThankYou! So much Shaun
I LOVE my satchel even more now….. ❤️
I would highly recommend the LSC’ if anyone is looking to purchase a beautiful well made satchel or any other leather goods. 😊

"First Class" 😊 ...what a lovely thing to say! Thank you! I'll let Shaun know his professionalism and speedy service is greatly appreciated! The little gift is our way of saying thanks for giving us the chance to adjust the shoulder strap for you - so that's it's now the perfect length for you!
Thank you for the high-priase and recommendation - we truly appreciate that you took the time to leave us feedback - thank you! 🙏
These people are total stars
I highly recommend the Leather Satchel Company. I love my new bag, it will be my constant companion. Apart from being absolutely beautiful and practical, I suspect it has supernatural powers. It's already faced down the usually sneery receptionist at the bank. I got it sent to France which, these days, is usually a big hassle, but Shaun was brilliant and organised everything really quickly and without fuss.

Hi Lee, thanks for such an awesome review! Greatly appreciated, every little thing helps our family business, so thank you! We look forward to hearing from you again!
Amazing!!!
The Leather Satchel Company is amazing! High quality leather products made in the UK. They have many styles and leathers, and will customize many bags (add a handle, make the bag a little deeper, make straps removable, etc). I met the owner and some of the staff and they were incredibly helpful and friendly in person and over email when working out the details of my order. I've recommended this company to family and friends, and will also be placing more orders for myself in the future.

Hi Simon, thanks for taking the time to leave a lovely review - so kind!
... "Yes, you're right!" even though all our items are crafted-on-demand, we can make most items within 24-48 hours if it's for a special occasion - you just need to let us know.
Once again, thanks for the review.
I love this British company
I love this British company. The bag they made for me is beautiful and worth every penny, both for craftsmanship and the quality of the leather. I own bags from other well known satchel companies but there's no comparison in quality. I will be returning for Christmas presents as it just feels like a bit of luxury at a very good price. Plus, they made and delivered it really quickly.

Hi Jonneka, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. The bullring is a lovely simple style, isn't it? When designing the bag, our research showed that the clasp style is one of the earliest recorded in history. Dating from the early foundations of Rome in around 750BC. It was relatively simple for early leather workers and blacksmiths to produce. We thought it deserved a revival on a simple and stylish 'tribute' to those early bags. We're really glad you like them!
