Checked Damier Ebene canvas, rolled leather handles, and an engraved padlock come together in the Speedy Bandouliere 25, a bag the source describes as an ideal city bag for every day, originally created for travellers in the 1930s. Name refers to the rapid transit of that era, and every feature of the design, from the unmistakable shape to the rolled handles, padlock, and detachable strap, is presented as defining the Speedy. Double zip, padlock, and an inside flat pocket are the stated closure and interior details, with measurements of 25 x 19 x 15 cm (Length x height x width), a Strap Drop of 46.5 cm, and a Strap Drop Max. of 55.0 cm. Damier Ebene coated canvas, smooth cowhide-leather trim, textile lining, and gold-color hardware complete the construction, with a double handle.
Canvas checks in brown and tan give the exterior a graphic, regular pattern, with the Damier Ebene squares alternating across the rounded panels in a design that is both classic and bold. Coated canvas holds the shape firmly, presenting the checks on a smooth surface that can be handled daily, while the coating gives the bag a practical finish that keeps the pattern looking crisp. Cowhide-leather trim, smooth and supple, frames the canvas at the top, base, and handle roots, adding a leather element that softens the outline and reinforces the construction. Rolled leather handles, doubled, provide a comfortable, rounded grip, with the two handles together allowing a balanced, one-handed lift. Gold-color hardware, at the padlock, zip pulls, and strap attachments, adds a warm metallic finish that complements the brown and tan canvas.
Double zip closure, with two pulls, allows the bag to be opened from either side, and the engraved padlock, attached at the centre, secures the zips and marks the bag with a signature detail. Inside flat pocket, against the textile lining, offers a flat, separate space for a card, a receipt, or another small flat item, keeping it from mixing with the main contents. Main space, 25 cm in length, 19 cm in height, and 15 cm in width, holds a full set of daily essentials, with the rounded Speedy shape allowing items to settle at the base and the textile lining providing a smooth interior. Detachable strap, removable and adjustable, sets the carrying drop between 46.5 cm and 55.0 cm, allowing shoulder carrying at the hip or cross-body carrying lower across the torso. Removing the strap returns the bag to hand carrying, with the rolled handles presenting the classic outline.
Made in France, Spain, Italy, or the US, as stated for the reference, the Speedy Bandouliere 25 carries its 1930s travel heritage into modern city use, with a shape and a set of features that have remained recognisable across decades. For daily carrying, the bag offers a compact, structured space, a secure closure, and two carrying modes, hand and strap, in a warm palette of checked canvas, cowhide leather, and gold hardware. Padlock, double zip, and flat pocket provide the practical details, while the Damier Ebene pattern provides the identity, a combination that suits commuting, errands, and travel days alike.
