Our Products

We want to provide all our customers with a handcrafted bag – designed by themselves to meet their wants and needs – bringing them a póchette full of joy to their day 😊

With this in mind, we have thoughtfully created our products to include the following:

  • Brighter lining, so that you can see everything inside the bag
  • Comfortable zipper-pull to help you open the bag more easily
  • Two-way zipper to allow you to wear the bag on your left- or right-hand side and open it easily
  • Adjustable length on all cross-body straps – to suit all heights
  • Wide leather or woven straps available to support your shoulder

NaviLens

Each swing tag on our products will have a NaviLens accessible QR code on it. The inner QR code works as normal and will bring customers to the product on our website.

The colours around the edge of this are part of a NaviLens code, which can be read by a NaviLens app used by blind and partially sighted people.

The advantage of a NaviLens code:

  • Can be read further away and while moving
  • Can be read at a wider angle and in dark lighting
  • Without the need to focus or frame it

Both codes will bring customers directly to the product page for the product they purchased, telling them all about that specific product – description, colour, size and how to care for it. And this way, when a blind or partially sighted customer receives their Póchette full of joy in the post, they will know exactly what is in the box 😊
