Collection: Cass Clutch

The Cass Clutch is the heart and soul of the collection. Its inspiration is a purse I picked up in a vintage shop many, many years ago. I’d never been much of a bag person, but when I picked up that bag, I could just feel the connection. And when I started carrying it regularly, I just felt … good, right, perfect, myself. Everyone should have things like that!

The Cass Clutch’s simple and flexible design allows it to transform smoothly from a stylish clutch to a useful tote or briefcase, easily holding a laptop as well as everyday essentials. To this, we added a system of accessories that work with the Cass Clutch, organizing everyone’s days with flair and style.

The collection features a palette of California-influenced perennial colors and Limited Edition seasonal shades of brilliance, intensity, and depth. Each bag varies slightly in color and nap due to the inherent characteristics of the hides, making each Cass Clutch naturally beautiful.

Designed to last and be passed on, it’s a bag that wants to be used and will change over time.

The line is manufactured in a small family owned and operated leather studio located in the San Francisco Bay Area. The hides for each bag are hand-selected and then sewn with the highest quality and craftsmanship. 

Cass sources local leather, which is a byproduct of the beef and dairy industry. No additional land or resources are required, and scrap leather from our larger products is used to make smaller complementary items of the Cass line. Cass is produced locally, which reduces transportation emissions and builds a vibrant and healthy local economy.
