Bags, shoes and leather goods from Coccinelle on one page
This page brings together three different families under the same label, and it helps to know how they are divided. The bags cover the three ways of carrying: over the shoulder, across the body on a long strap, and by hand on short handles. The small leather goods are mostly wallets, from the small pocket model to the medium one with a gusset, plus a few key holders. The shoes are the part that changes most from one season to the next, running from the heeled ankle boot to the court shoe, from the flat sandal to the fabric espadrille.
Natural-grain cowhide is the material that returns on the largest number of pieces. It is a full-grain leather, meaning the surface is not buffed: it keeps the original marking of the hide, it takes marks with use, and over time it darkens into a patina where it is handled. That is not a flaw but the way it ages, and it is managed with a neutral cream applied once a season. Suede, which Italian labels call camoscio, asks instead for a dry brush and a water-repellent spray, never water.
The wallet is the best represented item among the small leather goods, and size changes the use more than colour does. The small model holds cards and folded notes and fits in a pocket or a mini bag; the medium one with a gusset opens like a book, keeps flat banknotes separate from coins and takes up the space of a phone. The leather key holder, which clips inside the bag, exists so you do not have to tip the bag out every time: it is the accessory bought last and then used every day.
When choosing a bag the most useful criterion is not the stated measurement but what has to go in: a gusseted model gains volume when it is needed and stays flat when it is not, while a structured shape holds its outline even half empty and protects its contents better. For the full selection of bags, across every label in the assortment, there is the women's bags page.
