Zatchels flash sale

Zatchels are having a 24 hour 50% off sale tomorrow. It's advertised on their Facebook page. I'm tempted but don't know whether to go for a classic colour (probably the navy) or one of the metallics. Has anyone ordered from them and could you recommend a colour? Thanks!

I have their elephant brown cross body bag and it's fab. Brown is great because it looks lovely the more you wear it. If not brown I'd go metallic or neon?!

Are they big enough for school?

I have a 13" Cambridge satchel and it is not big enough for schoolwork (at least not a4)

www.zatchels.com/what-size-satchel.html this shows what you get in each one.

I might get a chestnut one for autumn. Thanks OP Smile

Gah I have to buy one now Angry

I really want a pastel coloured one - pale pink or purple - but it will get filthy immediately and I'll probably think it's hideous in 2 months' time. A cobalt blue one would be nice... I think I'll go for red though, much more practical and classic.

Curse you.

I have a lovely chestnut saddle bag- it looks really smart but...it's so small inside as the leather is so stiff I can literally only fit my purse, keys and phone ( minus it's cover) so if you are going to get the saddlebag go large!!

I like the look of the pewter saddle bag but can't work out if it is shiny or matte; the left photo looks shiny but the other one doesn't Confused

I need one! I've been hankering after a satchel for ages, but have just bought a new bag.

I can't decide between red and navy, saddle bag or satchel!

I want a satchel but may have to get a barrel bag too. With the discount it would be rude not to. Trouble is, the barrel bags do look very small, I'm not sure how much use I'd get out of it.

I've got a navy Zatchel, it's such a lovely navy, very matte. The leather is quite stiff and the buckles a little annoying to undo so I tend to save it for going out when I don't have DS with me

Just returned a neon pink saddle bag yesterday (£5 postage-ouch). Bag was beautiful but just too... Neon Confused DH hated it on sight Grin The bags themselves are great quality, and at that price I'd definitely go for it, but choose a more wearable colour if u can

What size satchel do most people go for, am thinking probably 13" but for just a few £s more can get 14.5" but I don't need a briefcase just a decent sized handbag.

I just ordered a 13" pewter classic satchel. Thanks mumsnet!

It shows you the sizes on the site Busker. The 13" holds an ipad which is perfect for me. I also googled images so I could see them worn.

Ooh, thanks OP. I may need a satchel AND a saddle bag too. Now, the question for me also is... which colours ?

I love these bags! Would one be suitable as a changing bag if I got an insert-thing?
