The Merida embodies the lifestyle and beauty of its namesake, the exquisite Yucatan capital of Merida. Stepping out beneath rounded archways to the paved streets lined with colourful buildings — the fresh ocean air mixes with the sweet smell of local coffee roasting and smoky chorizo. The bustle of modern living flows between colonial buildings, dripping in bright colours, and overlooks ancient Mayan ruins. Music, flavour, colour and style— where old meets new and adventure awaits. In Merida, you have to be ready to seize any opportunity.

FEATURES
The Merida shoulder bag features two short shoulder straps designed for maximum comfort. The spacious interior and wide opening allows you maximum space for the essentials, with room for a laptop, water bottle, insert and much more. Featuring a firm magnetic clasp opening, and internal compartments for organisation.

Crafted from our signature cactus leather in stunning black, the Merida is both stylish and built for purpose. Don’t be caught out switching between bags, with the Merida you have a multipurpose all in one bag that can take you from day to night seamlessly.
