The Details

Every measurement, before you decide.

18 in 12 in 5.4 in deep
Measured across the widest points: 18 in across the top, 11 in across the base. Zip close across the top. Two chain-and-leather shoulder straps; there is no crossbody strap.
Size
18 × 12 × 5.4 in across the widest points, 11 in across the base (W45.8 × H30.5 × D13.8 cm). A 13-inch laptop lies flat inside with room beside it for books and the day's essentials. She is a big bag: on your shoulder her top edge sits just under your elbow.
The colour
One colour all over, the same shade on the body and the base; the only other colour on her is gold. Six shades: black, brown, navy, cobalt, red and burgundy. Pick yours in the Choose her colour row; each colour has its own eight photos.
Material
Premium vegan leather with a smooth face and a light pull-up grain. She is not real leather, and we say so. Gold curb-chain straps, gold grommets set into the top edge, gold AFROYLA letters on the front, and a gold zip across the top with a leather tab on the pull.
Inside
A soft suede-feel lining, a zip pocket on the back wall with a small AFROYLA plate, slip pockets on the front wall and a divider down the middle, so the laptop, the wallet and the phone each have a place.
Carry
Two shoulder straps, each a gold curb chain that passes through the gold grommets and ends in a rolled leather grip where she sits on your shoulder. The chains cannot fold into the zip. She is a shoulder bag; there is no crossbody strap.
Keeping her shape
A flat base and soft sides. Keep her filled when she is put away and she keeps her line.
When she ships
Both charms ship this week; Safiya is pre-order and ships Sep 26 – Oct 3, in the order she’s claimed. Each colour shows its own ship window beside its swatch in the set box. We ship in the order it is claimed.
Shipping & returns
Ships from the USA. In-stock pieces leave the warehouse within one business day; pre-orders follow their batch window. Delivery in 2–8 business days, by the speed you choose at checkout. 30-day returns.

    I love the bag. It is very classy and I look distinguished and professional when carrying it!😃😍

    Smooth, gorgeous leather, perfect size, and roomy. Needed a neutral bag and this will now be my "go-to". Timeless!

    Solid Serwa Blue Afroyla Bag

    I purchased this bag to carry to church and to other businesslike events. The color is as portrayed in the pic. I normally like textured leather but this will also work with my jean outfits & that's a plus. I also like a company that doesn't go ghost when a product problem occurs . That's another reason why I purchased an Afroyla bag & not a similar brand. If you can't stand behind your brand you don't have one.
