Material (Vache Hunter): The top crest, handle, and straps are made from Black Vache Hunter leather, a stiff cowhide that provides a structured frame for the flexible canvas body.

Construction (Retourne): This model features Retourne construction, meaning the bag is sewn then turned inside out to create softer, rounded edges.
