The Maven

$249.95

We have renamed this bag after finding out that the old name was trademarked. I really like Maven...it means Expert or Ace in the Field!  How appropriate!

With a compact organized design it has everything a girl wants at her fingertips in close reach!

We have put nice deep pockets on either end of this bag gently pleated into the top so when you put a water bottle or coffee thermos in it seems to blend with the bag. Perfect for even that occasional umbrella that is if you don’t live in Seattle and use one.

There are two large padded drop pockets on one side and both have zip pockets on them deep enough for most cell phones. The back side has a full length wall zipper also lightly padded.

When designing our bags we try to make both out sides different so you can have a “front” and “back” making it easy to remember where things are in your purse and which one of the main zippers on top of this bag to enter to find your essentials.

Inside the zippered main sections you will find on the one side that there is a leather wall lined zippered pocket and adjacent to that there are numerous credit/debit card slots each one capable of 6-10 cards in each. In the other main zippered section this design has two pen/pencil pockets and on either side of them there are two gusseted pockets with enough material that most any of the phones and glasses will not only fit but also leave enough room to take them in and out without being sloppy or two tight. These sections easily fit a full sized I-Pad or equivalent.

On the bottom of this design we put a piece of Upholstery board that will make it so it will stand on its own but it doesn’t add any weight to speak of. Nothing is better than a purse that will sit and not tip over! We always try to keep the weight down on our bags because of the belief that if you are carrying the weight of what you are putting in a purse as opposed to a bag that is already heavy to start with…everybody is happier. The straps on this style have been measured so most people can wear this design as both a shoulder bag and a hand bag making it very universal for all. Just like all of our soft leather products the leather is tanned making it so you don’t have to do anything to the leather to take care of it other than to wipe it down with a damp cloth from time to time.

Remember this is one of our Hidden/Concealment pocket purses so when you close the full length zipper on the outside of this design you will also notice that there is a Velcro secured hidden pocket built into this bag that when you open it you will find that there is a double walled Rip-Stop Nylon separately lined hidden pocked which can be used for storage of just about anything from water bottles to wallets to travel documents and yes it can easily be used for housing a concealed weapon without ruining the bluing on a pistol. If water bottle were to spill…no worries the material is water resistant.

I purchased the Maven as a gift for my wife. After dozens of bags over the 45+ years we have been married she has gone through dozens of purses and hand/shoulder bags. Most of the have been constructed of mixed materials but she has a preference for a leather look. I could see her bag was getting that overall worn out look. I decided to surprise her with a well made all leather bag. I stumbled upon the Ace Leather Goods site and picked out a couple styles I thought see would like. To be honest I took a deep swallow at the price but I knew she would love the bag so I ordered a Maven in black. She loves it. Leather quality is top notch and the craftmanship and design are great. I held off with this review until we could see how the bag would hold up. After months and moths of use it looks new. Customer service is top notch too. I had included a note in my order that the bag was a surprise gift to my wife and the sent my receipt in the mail separately. The bag has become her favorite of all time and she gets compliments and comments about it. Now, if I had just ordered it in brown.

After wandering through a department store looking at the brand name purses without finding that right one, I searched made in the USA leather companies and found the Washington state company; Ace Leather Goods. It did not take me long to spot the right size purse with compartments galore. What a perfect fit. The packaging made me feel very special opening up to see this handcrafted beautiful and useful product that I am proud to have over my shoulder. The smell is wonderful, too! All smiles here!
