Imagine if Designing Women (minus the shoulder pads and big hair) moved to Savannah and updated to a fresh look in 2012, and that’s the world of Satchel- a boutique leather goods store in the heart of Downtown. SCAD alumnae, Elizabeth, Char, Mahala, and Lexi, have been hand-crafting beautiful bags, amazing accessories, and lovely luggage sets for 5+ years. Whether you have an old piece that you’d like to re-create, or the perfect idea for clutch, Satchel is the place to go. The touches of hand weaving, braiding, and branding add so much interest to the designs, and truly make each piece special. When they’re not helping customers, these ladies are sewing away on the in-house machines (in view behind the counter) to create the latest and greatest. Oh, and did we mention horn handles from South America?

This unique store is filled with adorable stories of bags with even more adorable names. One of their top sellers, the “Dad’s Jacket” was originally designed using a reconstructed Pilot Jacket. And most of the products are named after friends and family. Pick from a variety of quality, leather samples and hardware to create your own version of a bag, or just buy one right off the shelf. If you’re looking to create a bag from scratch, the entire process will take about 4-5 weeks and will run you anywhere from $80 to upwards of $1000 for large garment bags. But at the end of the day, you have a one-of-a-kind bag from a one-of-a-kind store. At least, it’s the only place we know of that sells leather beer koozies!

We can’t imagine a cooler birthday present or corporate gift for your next event. (Can we say branded, leather iPad cases?) So call them up or walk into their splendidly styled showroom for a little leather loving.
