Westminster Leather Messenger Bags

The Westminster is a messenger bag with a difference: square, structured and slim, 27cm wide, 27cm high and 6cm deep, so a paperback or slim notebook lies flat alongside phone, purse and keys. It is the bag for commuting or a day of meetings when a crossbody feels too small and a tote too much. Inside, a zip pocket and open side pockets keep small things in order, and the lining is easy-clean. Each one is handcrafted in Full-grain Leather and finished with our signature gold hardware. The 4cm-wide leather strap adjusts to 106cm.

The Westminster comes in eleven colours: black, navy, chestnut, maple and stone for everyday, slate blue, pale fern and purple nightshade, and burnt rhubarb, olive green and volcano grey from the AW26 palette. It is £99.95. The nearest crossbody comparison is the City, at 23 x 16.5 x 7cm with a strap to 125cm: the Westminster is 10cm taller and 4cm wider but a centimetre slimmer, on a wider, shorter strap, so it is the bag for paper and a book rather than everyday essentials.

Every Westminster comes with two free straps of your choice and a keyring, worth £63, and is covered by a 365-day warranty and 30-day returns. UK delivery is free on orders over £70. See both on our messenger bags page, compare the Portman and the City on our bag comparison guide.
