US brand Telfar has announced that it will add its first-ever genuine leather handbag to its collection.
Known for its vegan leather totes, the brand has unveiled The Carry, which is made from full-grain pebble leather and is, according to the company, its “answer to traditional luxury”.
The range will be priced from £470 ($523) for a small tote, £710 for the medium, and £1,145 for a large – more than four times higher than Telfar’s vegan leather shopping totes, but far cheaper than comparable bags.
“Every aspect of this bag is designed for a physical experience. To carry The Carry, you need to touch it, feel it, and wear it,” said Telfar.
The brand will also launch a 20-piece capsule collection of leather apparel, including long skirts and a trench coat, made in partnership with clothing and accessories maker Wilson Leathers.
Telfar is an independent brand founded in 2005.
