Cowhide Crossbody/Shoulder Bag Graphito Acido & Black - Cole

This multi-pocket bag from OB, the Cole is the ultimate 3-in-1 style that offers fantastic security and versatility.

Depending upon your mood you can feature the cowhide front to match your outfit or perhaps the classic leather front is what you prefer today?

Both sections have zipper compartments and the Cole style is super easy and quick to convert;  the "paniers" just flip over and you can choose which colourway suits your mood.

With an adjustable matching crossbody strap that is detachable, it means that you can use it as an extra-large clutch = such a stylish statement (a must for your next vacation).

The larger section is fully lined with British cotton twill lining which has a leather 2-sided slip pocket AND the OB  leather key trigger fob.

The small compartment is unlined and the perfect place, for phone, keys, mask etc.

Classic Leather

The Owen Barry Classic Leathers are one of the most popular leathers within our handbag collection.

Classic is semi-aniline cow leather that has been developed and hand selected by OB, it's super tactile, rounded, lightweight and hardwearing (with normal usage) and performs exceptionally well within the soft unstructured styling of the Owen Barry Range.

Because it is a semi-aniline leather, which is, by definition quite naked, you will see slight variations in the characteristics of the grain and subtle natural markings with our classic leathers,  we feel this aspect enhances the beauty of our bags and enables the quality of the leather to really shine through. 

If you would like to see cuttings of any Classic Leathers to help you make your choice please visit our customisation page and send an email 

Cowhide

Owen Barry Cowhides are a signature part of all our collections, quite a few are limited editions developed exclusively for OB and will not be available anywhere else throughout the UK & Europe.

At this point, for the sake of clarity, we should emphasise that all our hair on products are Cowhide (not pony) and are 100% a bi-product of the food industry.

Acido is a stunning finish applied to the cowhides, each hide is individual, the hair has been removed at random, making every skin totally individual, where the hair loss occurs a finish/colour has been applied, our most popular spotting/. finishes being, Silver, Gold & Rancho Brown.

Tricolour is a description that encompasses a variety of natural cowhides, Tricolour, technically means including 3 colours, usually, shades of Browns/Tans, Whites/Beiges & Blacks to differing degrees, these markings are all natural and NO two pieces are the same.  Owen Barry, select only the prettiest of cowhides, and our cutters hand select and cut them to ensure a good variety and attractive placement within every bag. 

Printed Cowhides These are the most uniform of our cowhide, still 100% a bi-product of the food industry these skins have been selected for their uniformity (within reason, this is always a natural product) and then the screen printing finish applied - so,  standard joke,  there have been no Dalmatian puppies, Zebra's or Leopards etc. killed in the making of our bags, everything is just printed - very nicely printed, but nothing more than that.

Laser cut Cowhides The laser cutting process has been applied to the cowhides, patterns and styles can range from geometrical, thru floral and unclude things like "croc" finishes, this laser cutting adds another layer of texture and variety to our cowhides.
