About Cambridge Satchel

The Cambridge Satchel Company started by making the traditional English school satchel in bright colours and now produces a wider range of leather bags, much of it still made in Britain.
The satchel is the anchor product and it is a specific shape: a rigid, flat-bottomed bag with buckle straps, designed to carry books flat rather than to hold a jumble of things.

What they make

Satchels in several sizes, from small cross-body versions to the full briefcase size, plus backpacks, totes, work bags, small leather goods and a line in embossed and patterned leathers.
Colour is a large part of the range and the brighter finishes are dyed leathers rather than coated ones, which is why they age rather than peel.

Judging a leather bag

Look at the size in centimetres against what actually goes in it. A satchel that takes a thirteen-inch laptop will not take a fifteen, and the flat construction that makes it look sharp is the same thing that stops it swallowing a lunch box and a water bottle.
Hardware and stitching are where cheap bags fail first. Buckles that are solid rather than plated, stitching that is even at the strap anchors, and a strap that is replaceable all matter more over five years than the leather grade does.
Leather needs feeding once or twice a year with a suitable conditioner and needs drying naturally if it gets wet. Scratches on unfinished leather can be worked in with a thumb; on coated leather they cannot, so it is worth knowing which finish a bag has before treating it.

Using a Cambridge Satchel discount code

Choose the bag, enter the code at the checkout and confirm the total before ordering. These appear as Cambridge Satchel discount codes, voucher codes and promo codes.
Outlet and archive colours carry the deepest reductions and normally cannot take a further percentage. A sign-up offer covers a first order on a new account only, and personalised or embossed bags fall outside both the offers and the returns policy.
