Fold-Over Sling Bag Leather – Black

Our Fold-Over Sling Bag Leather - Black made from a 100% South African Cow Leather. The Black Leather we use is also a premium quality leather with a waxy finish, which helps to repel water drops off the leather, making it more water resistant. The Fold-Over Sling Bag Leather - Black was designed to limit theft with it's folder design. Hence a durable metal zip and antique brass snap hook to secure all your personal belongings. The interior of this Sling Bag also lined with an original South African Shweshwe fabric for strength and style. As well as another zip pocket at the back for smaller items. All NAVA Apparel bags are handmade by local South African craftswomen.

When you buy one of our Bags you also support our women's workshop in Cape Town. All women work for themselves and get paid per item. We operate as a fair-trade business and create more jobs in South Africa. Giving women an opportunity to empower themselves by operating their own little business within our business. Respecting each other and learning from one another. This is the future I would like to live in one day.
