Handles that clear a coat sleeveBraided round handles with a 27 to 30 cm drop sit on the shoulder over a winter coat.

Shipping & Returns

Shipping. We take 1–3 business days to prepare yours with care, then it ships worldwide (free over $100) and arrives about 2 weeks after you order. You'll receive a tracking link the moment it's on its way. Weekend and peak-season orders may take a little longer.

Returns. We accept returns within 30 days of delivery. If an item arrives damaged or incorrect, we'll make it right and cover return shipping. If you simply change your mind, we'll gladly issue a refund once the item is returned to us — in this case return shipping is the customer's responsibility. To start a return, email Care@wildfool.life.

Care
Wipe dust off with a dry soft cloth. Keep it out of heavy rain; if it gets wet, blot with a cloth and let it dry in the shade, away from heat. A thin coat of neutral leather conditioner once a season is plenty. Split cowhide can transfer a little colour onto pale clothing when new, so keep it off white coats for the first few wears. Store it stuffed, in the dust bag, out of direct sun.

橄榄绿太好搭了

在家随手照了张镜子,配个白T短裤就很好看。橄榄绿户外更偏卡其,我反而更喜欢。皮子软不硬,上肩也舒服,日常装东西完全够

the cream is even prettier up close

stood it by the window to take a pic and the color is just so soft and warm. handles are sturdy, dont dig into your shoulder

wasnt expecting the handles to feel this nice

the rope handles are thick and comfy on the arm. ivory is closer to a warm cream than bright white fyi

keys and gum and whatever else

clipped my keys to the inside, still tons of room. olive green looks more khaki outdoors which i actually prefer

the long handles are great if you like carrying on the shoulder. cognac color is gorgeous, deeper than the photos. soft leather

handles a touch short for me

love the bag and the leather but if you want to wear it on the shoulder with a thick winter coat the handles are just on the short side for me. fine over a jumper

D

great but no inner pocket

love the size and the leather but there is no zip pocket inside so my small stuff floats around. i use a little pouch and its fine

Questions, answered

Does it stand up on its own?
It's a soft, unstructured tote. Half-full or loaded it stands on its flat 36 × 14 cm base; empty, it slouches. If you want a bag that holds a rigid shape, this isn't that bag.
Will the handles clear a thick winter coat?
The handle drop is 27–30 cm (10.6–11.8 in). Over a jumper or a mid-weight coat it sits on the shoulder. One owner found it just short over a thick puffer — if that's your daily coat, carry it by hand or measure first.
Will the colour rub off?
New split cowhide can transfer a little colour to pale clothing in the first few wears, so keep it off white coats at first. After that, owners report no transfer at all.
Is there a pocket inside?
There's no sewn-in pocket. A removable zip pouch comes with it for keys and cards (its colour may vary), and the rest is one open space — which is why a 13-inch laptop and a folder slide in flat.
When will it arrive?
Every colour shown as in stock ships within 1–3 business days with tracking and typically arrives 12–17 days after you order; a colour on pre-order shows its ship date above the button. Shipping is free on orders over USD $100.
What if it doesn't suit me?
You have 30 days to return it — details under Shipping & Returns above. No drama, no restocking games.
Do orders come with a gift?
Yes — orders from USD $54 automatically include a free gift, and bigger orders unlock better ones (up to a silk sleep mask at USD $299+). It's added in your cart, nothing to do.
Is checkout secure?
Yes — SSL-encrypted checkout with cards, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
