Buying Guide

When choosing the right leather sling bags, it's essential that it works for your personal needs because you're likely going to use it daily. Therefore, because it's eventually going to become an extension of yourself, it must be easy to carry while looking and feeling right. When making your selections, consider the size, capacity, weight, design, color, and compartments. Under most circumstances, leather sling bags are sturdy and lightweight while offering plenty of personal style.

Selecting high-quality leather sling bags is essential in that they'll be durable and will last a lifetime. You'll find that these leather items have natural marks, imperfections, and will develop rich patinas as they age. The best kinds of leather you can purchase include full grain or top grain.

Maintaining leather sling bags is two-fold in that you’re going to be taking care of the leather exterior of the bag in addition to its cloth interior. Here are some tips for keeping the leather clean:

  • Wipe it down at least once per week with a moist cloth and then follow that with a dry one.
  • Use a Lexol leather cleaner to remove stubborn dirt or grime.
  • Avoid using saddle soap because it will cause discoloring, and regular soap will cause the leather to dry out.

Keeping the inside of the leather bag is tricky because you can’t toss it into the washing machine if a spill occurs or a pen leaks. Instead, turn the bag inside out and wipe out anything that's loose or wet with a clean cloth. Using a damp sponge, add a dab of mild detergent. Make sure you've lathered the sponge, so there isn't any accessive liquid. Work on the dirty areas of the inside of the bag, and then allow to air dry.

Once the bag is dry, turn it right side in and, if there’s an odor, put it in a freezer bag in freeze it overnight. The bag will prevent moisture build-up, and the freezer kills odor-causing bacteria.

Under most circumstances, leather sling bags feature a crossbody strap style. The bag typically has many storage pockets on the outside and one large in the middle. They're available in a myriad of shapes and colors based on your taste and needs. Some look like a teardrop while others are a standard rectangle.

Depending on where you’re purchasing your leather sling bag and how many compartments the bag features, you’re going to find the prices are going to vary significantly. The prices are also going to be variant if you’re choosing faux leather, genuine leather, or the highest quality leather. For example, if you select a genuine leather sling bag in a teardrop shape featuring three pockets, you could find it for just over $70.00. However, if you pick one that’s made from high-quality leather, it could cost up to $350.00.
