A company called Melbourne Leather Co. recently sold me a cowhide bags, and I love it.

Different bags have different patterns, which makes them stand out. No two bags look exactly the same. I didn't even mean to buy anything fancy, but the style interested me, so I chose to do so. It turned out to be a good choice.

That thin, fake leather you sometimes see online doesn't feel as thick and real as this one does. It's been holding up really well so far as I use it every day for chores and short trips. I chose a crossbody style, which is great because it fits all of my things and doesn't feel too big.

It goes with any style. It goes with jeans, skirts, and even my work clothes. A little bit of color and individuality are added without being too loud. It's the kind of thing that looks and feels both rough and stylish.

Additionally, cowhide is something you should look into if you like accessories made by hand or just want something a little different from the normal mass-produced bags.

Would love to hear from anyone else who has tried cowhide bags or other leather items. How do they last for you? Always willing to find new brands or styles that people trust.
