Because cows are sacred in Nepal (and that's another whole story), the meat Nepalis eat is primarily water buffalo. Hence, the hide is a by product of meat production. Preparing the hide is a lengthy process, done completely by hand, using all local, natural, and organic materials. Then, they're designed and crafted by hand.
Okay, so this is the "big daddy" of the water buffalo shopping bags. As I think everybody needs all three, not just 1 or 2, I've made that an option as well (The Water Buffalo Shopping Bag Trio...A must!). So, the large shopping bag is the same simple, appealing design with the fat leather stitches up the center (front and back) and a bit of the same stitching on either side. This has the same fun leather toggle and loop for closure and comfortably long handles.
FEATURES
Rugged, yet classy
Sturdy stitching
Long handles for comfortable shoulder carry
Leather toggle and loop closure
Unisex
USAGE
As I've decided it's a rule, the bigger the bag, the bigger the list of uses. Geeze, take it to the park for a picnic, pack stuff in it for camping, depending on how hard you study or work... a school/work bag, a beach bag, a diaper bag, and most definitely a great shopping bag for market day.

The water buffalo leather is tanned, designed, and crafted by hand in Nepal.

*Each of my water buffalo leather products is unique. The colors vary greatly and the slight imperfections and irregularities only add to the charm of each piece.
PRODUCT CARE
Keep out of elements as much as possible. You can use leather products, but please understand that will likely change the color.
