When your jacket stays at home

Phone, wallet, keys – often, that is all it takes to head out. But when the jacket stays at home, those everyday companions need somewhere else to go. »Carl« starts with this simple idea: a compact shoulder bag with a classic shape and the character of natural leather. For days when you want to carry less and experience more.

Made for good journeys

DRAKENSBERG grew out of our shared passion for travel. We wanted to create bags made not for a single season, but to accompany people for many years and many journeys.

That is why we combine timeless, historically inspired design with traditional craftsmanship and high-quality natural materials. For us, a good product is not about having as many details as possible — but the right ones.

Our story

Frequently Asked Questions

What fits inside the small »Carl« shoulder bag?

With a capacity of 3 litres, »Carl« is designed for everyday essentials: a smartphone, wallet, keys and small personal items. Its external dimensions are H 23 × W 20 × D 7 cm. Whether a particularly large phone with its case fits depends on its dimensions and the other contents; external measurements are not usable compartment measurements.

Can I wear »Carl« as a crossbody bag?

Yes. The adjustable shoulder strap lets you wear »Carl« across the body or over one shoulder. Adjust it to a comfortable position. Exact minimum and maximum strap lengths are not currently specified.

Is the »Carl« shoulder bag also suitable for women?

Yes. Although positioned as a small men's shoulder bag, the compact shape of »Carl« also suits women. Personal style and the preferred carrying position matter most; the shoulder strap is adjustable in length.

How are belongings stored in »Carl«?

The main compartment closes with a zip. An interior zip pocket and another at the back provide separate storage for smaller items. Closed compartments help prevent loose items from falling out; they do not make the bag theft-proof.

Why does the leather surface change over time?

»Carl« is made from full-grain buffalo leather. Natural grain and slight surface variations are part of the material. Handling and use gradually create an individual patina, so the bag develops its own character over time.

How can I protect the leather bag from rain?

For additional protection, use a protective spray suitable for this leather. Test it on an inconspicuous area first, as it may change the colour. Treatment can help repel moisture but does not make the bag waterproof. Protect »Carl« from prolonged wet conditions. Find more advice in our care guide.

How should I clean and store »Carl«?

Remove surface dirt with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not wash or dry-clean the bag. Let damp leather dry at room temperature, away from radiators and direct heat. A dust bag is included for storage. Find more advice in our care guide.

Is »Carl« a suitable gift?

»Carl« is a gift idea for anyone who likes to carry their phone, wallet and keys in a small leather bag. Its classic design works with many everyday outfits. The shoulder bag and a dust bag are included – a thoughtful option for birthdays, Christmas or Father's Day.
