Fossil Lainey Satchel (Green, Small)

What are the exact dimensions of this satchel?

The bag measures 29.5cm in length, 18cm in width and 13cm in height. The handle drop is 14cm from the top of the bag to the bottom of the handle loop. The crossbody strap is adjustable and detachable. The compact size makes it suitable for daily use whilst still providing adequate storage space.

How much weight can this bag safely carry?

The bag itself weighs 0.9kg and the genuine leather construction with reinforced stitching can handle typical daily items. The dual handles and crossbody strap distribute weight evenly. However, overloading any leather bag can cause stretching and damage to the structure over time.

Will this bag fit a standard laptop?

This bag is designed for tablets up to 7.9 inches and may not accommodate most laptops. The interior dimensions are optimised for smaller devices, documents and personal items. If you need laptop storage, consider looking at larger satchel models in the Fossil range.

Is the crossbody strap comfortable for extended wear?

The adjustable strap can be customised to your preferred length and the bag's 0.9kg weight distributes well across the body. The strap width provides adequate support for the bag's size. For maximum comfort during extended wear, adjust the strap so the bag sits at hip level.

How do I care for the genuine leather?

Clean the leather regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove surface dirt. Use leather conditioner every few months to maintain suppleness and prevent cracking. Avoid exposing the bag to excessive moisture or direct sunlight for extended periods. Store in a dust bag when not in use.

What items typically fit in the interior pockets?

The zip pocket securely holds items like keys, coins or small electronics. The slide pocket works well for phones, cards or receipts that need quick access. The back exterior slide pocket is perfect for transport passes or items you need to reach frequently without opening the main compartment.

Can I remove the crossbody strap permanently?

Yes, the crossbody strap is completely detachable using metal hardware attachments. You can use the bag solely with the dual handles for a more traditional satchel appearance. The attachment points are reinforced to handle repeated removal and reattachment of the strap.

Is this bag suitable for professional environments?

The structured design and genuine leather construction make it appropriate for business settings. The classic satchel silhouette works well with professional attire. The organised interior keeps documents and essentials neat whilst the secure closure protects contents during commuting.
