Cult-favourite leather goods label Polène Paris unveils its Solé bag in three new shades that are perfect for stepping into the summer mood. Its name a play on the French word for sun, the net-inspired style is also a radiant expression of craftsmanship and sustainability.

Part of the brand’s Plèi collection, which faithfully upcycles leather off-cuts, the style is both sculptural and soft. Measuring 26.5 cm by 15.5 cm, its striking silhouette is a formation of 240 pebble-like pearls, crafted using leather off-cuts from Polène’s other designs.

Each pearl is unique and the process intensifies the natural leather scent. This detail may fade over time but first speaks to the intricate creation process of the Solé. Stringing the pearls together are 120 knots hand-tied using traditional macramé techniques in waxed cotton cord.

Last but not least, a smooth calf leather base and handles anchor it all together. The assembly takes place in Ubrique, Spain, a region renowned for leather craftsmanship. A removable recycled cotton pouch adds further function to form. The resulting lightweight bag is ideal for either city strolls or seaside escapes.

In addition to existing classic hues, Black, Ebony and Tan, the summer-ready style now comes in fresh shades, such as Oat, Salt Pink and Sea Foam. The Solé retails for USD500 via the Polène Paris online store, which offers shipping to Singapore from USD25.
