Fall is right around the corner and, in our minds, nothing says fall quite like wools, tweeds, and nubby buttons. Those of us who appreciate but avoid wearing the staple fall blazer can happily tote a Mandinka Designs bag–it won’t clash with your complexion or make you look boxy, and since each one is totally unique (as each is made from recycled jacket parts including sleeves, collars, pockets and even labels) you’ll have a useful and attractive conversation starter for your wardrobe. Wins all around.

Mr Mooney messenger - No.3108 features a mix of neutrals with jewel tones, with a generous size for toting all the goodies.

The Chase handbag - No. 3308 features sleek design with a funky mix of neutrals in browns and beiges with a touch of black.

Sir Franklin satchel - No. 4308 is a masculine mix of fabrics in neutral tones. We love the combination of solids and patterns and the cool, retro inspired design.
