Mulberry Brynmore Messenger Bag In Denim Darwin Leather
(SOLD)

Mulberry used to produce men's leather bags in a whole range of colours a few years back. Colours like apple, denim were some of the beautiful colours that were offered then. It seems these colours have since disappeared from their range of men's bags (maybe men are more safe with coloured bags a couple of years back but now colour is in!) and thus now all the icon range usually only comes in Oak, Chocolate and Black. Not that these standard colours are not nice, but we do need some point of difference to make ours more unique:-)

Hence, I bought this classic style Mulberry Brynmore Messenger Bag In Denim Darwin Leather when Mulberry was still in its initial launch in Singapore. Club 21 mens was the only place to get the brand's offerings. I had the luck of getting the slim and yet structured Brynmore bag for men.

Being a guy with too many bags, I slowly transit from messenger style bags to tote and this bag never got to fulfill its purpose for me. I kept it in its dust bag and did not get to use it a single time. It's a pity as this bag is perfect for day to day errands or even travelling. I have been sorting sorting out my bags and I knew it is time to let the bag fulfill its intended purpose for someone else:-) So I am letting this beautiful 'man bag' find a new owner.

The bag is in full Darwin leather. It is Denim colour. The original colour was slightly more bluish, but as Mulberry uses natural dyes for their leathers, they will aged with time. Having kept the bag with me for a few years, the bluish hue has now aged to a more warmer ash/grey bluish tone. Very beautiful and much easier to match any outfits. The aging of the colour does gives the bag more character. The bag is unlined with suede texture on the leather's flipside (same as many other Mulberry bags). It features 3 turnlock buckles (Not tarnished at all) for closure so you can adjust to the desired height you need. The interior has a front slot with pen pockets and card slot. As this bag is of natural dyed leather, it is characteristic of the leather to have slightly uneven colour tones. There are minor scratches on very few areas (this was the last piece available in store when I bought it). The edge of the underside of the bag flap will also find slight yellowing due to the aging of the leather. Nothing too major to be honest:-)(See the pic above)

Brynmore bag are classic style Mulberry bags and are usually not on sale.

Dimensions of the bag (approx.): 36cm(w) x 33cm(h) x 9.5cm(side) x 10cm(base). Strap is adjustable and features a Mulberry engraved brass buckle.

Original price: SGD $1299
