Sofía - Corn Leather Bag

$278.00 Sale Save
Size Classic
Colour Toffee

Introducing a new classic ethically made from 100% vegan high quality corn leather, Sofía is beautiful, curvy and sassy like her iconic namesake Sofía Vergara. Available in 12 gorgeous colours of our newest plant-based textile, this bag comes in two sizes, a classic run-around or Queen for someone who needs to carry a few extras!

Please note all colours except Obsidian (black) and Cotton (white) have pull-up effect which creates a two tone effect where the textile is stretched or folded. This gives a nice worn-in vintage effect on the colours where it appears lighter on seams and folds.

Choose your strap length so that your bag hits you at just the right point on your body!
It can be helpful to measure the strap on a bag you already own to help you choose:

Petite is 100cm/39”
Mid is 120cm/47"
Tall/Plus is 140/55”

Note that these straps are adjustable so these options are the length of the strap on the middle setting where the tail of the strap will hang as pictured (adjustable 9cm either side of that measurement)

If you need a strap length outside of these options please get in touch, we are happy to make a custom length for you

Beautiful and practical

I bought the Sofia bag in espresso, queen size about 9 months ago and am so impressed with the quality and how well it has held up! The colour is gorgeous, the adjustable strap is perfect, all the details and the material just feel and look like quality, and I love the inside pocket! I don't think I'll need to replace it for a long time but when I do I'll be coming back to Velvet Heartbeat for sure!

Perfection!

I have the Sofia in obsidian and it is by far the best bag I have ever owned. As a long time vegan I have tried a lot of vegan bags and this one exceeds any others by a mile. The corn leather is so soft and supple but it is so hard wearing. I have had my bag for nearly a year and it still looks brand new. It doesn't mark or scratch. It is also lovely and light, I can happily wear it cross body without ever getting a sore shoulder. I love the floral fabric lining and the handy sip pocket. It is also the perfect size for day to day use. Buy this bag, you won't regret it!

Gorgeous!

My partner got me the Queen in Espresso, and it's absolutely gorgeous and goes well with every garment I own. Plus that it is very spacious and thus functional so I take it with me everywhere.

I purchased this bag in the white shade in queen and it’s gorgeous. Very well made and enough room for needs.
