Women's Large Shoulder Bag with Drawstring Sides

Avery, the Large Shoulder Bag for Work and Weekends

Avery is a large shoulder bag for the woman who carries a full day in one bag. Two rounded handles with gold buckles sit comfortably on the shoulder, and the soft drawstring sides give the body a relaxed, slouchy shape that still looks put together with a blazer, a knit or a long coat. It suits the office, a day in town or a short trip, and it holds its shape whether you carry it full or light.

A zip closure and an inner zip pocket

Avery closes with a zip, so your things stay safe on a busy commute. Inside, the polyester lining is soft and plain, with one zip pocket on the wall for your phone, keys or cards, and one roomy main compartment for everything else.

Size and dimensions: 16.5 x 11.8 x 5.5 in (42 x 30 x 14 cm)

Avery measures 16.5 x 11.8 x 5.5 in (42 x 30 x 14 cm), with a 9.1 in (23 cm) handle drop. That is wide enough for a tablet, a magazine, a wallet, a make-up pouch and a light layer. The 5.5 in (14 cm) depth keeps it close to the body.

Carried on the shoulder or by hand

The two handles are made to sit on the shoulder, so your hands stay free. Pull the side drawstrings to gather the bag in and make it more compact, or loosen them for extra width. Weight is around 1.3 lb (590 g), light enough for a long day.

Size guide and how to measure

Width 16.5 in (42 cm) across the top, height 11.8 in (30 cm) from base to top edge without the handles, depth 5.5 in (14 cm) at the base, handle drop 9.1 in (23 cm). To check it against your own bag, lay yours flat and measure the widest point, then the height from the base to the top seam. Avery is a roomy shoulder bag of about 17.6 litres (16.5 x 11.8 x 5.5 in, calculated): it takes a tablet, a wallet, a make-up pouch, keys and a light layer. Weight is about 1.3 lb (590 g) empty.

Two colours: black and chestnut brown

Black has a glossy, crinkled finish that catches the light and goes with everything. Chestnut brown has a soft matte, suede-like look, warm and easy with denim and neutrals.

Material and care

The outer is PU vegan leather and the inside is polyester lined. Wipe it with a damp soft cloth, keep it away from sharp objects and store it upright to help it keep its shape.
