The Sloane is a east-west leather shoulder bag. A wide shape with a structured flap. Add hand-painted initials by Annem Zaidi if you choose.

The Sloane east-west leather shoulder bag in Canvas, front view

A long, low shape that sits beneath the arm. A structured flap, a concealed magnetic close, and a clear space for your initials.

A quiet shape. A personal mark.

Three letters on the front flap. A close look at KPW shows the brush at work: colour, a fine edge, and the small variations of paint on leather.

A workday — phone, a compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, a small notebook. The east-west line stays flat against a blazer.

Craft

  • Elongated east-west line designed to tuck cleanly under tailored outerwear.
  • A structured front flap with concealed closure offers a dedicated surface for a small painted motif, if you choose one.
  • Smooth leather construction keeps the silhouette crisp while preserving softness at the edge.
