Mates For Life: These Vintage Handbags Should Be Your New BFF

We carry about a tiny world of our own in our bags and there’s nothing better than bags that are timeless and surreal. So be it a man or a woman,  you would know that setting out without a little sling bag, clutch or a wallet is next to feeling lost.

We found a time-honoured personal survival kit and a companion for life; bags by Kompanero. Big or small, red or black, sling or strapless - this brand is your one-stop shop for all your bag needs. From laptop bags to classy backpacks, the extensive range of genuine leather bags is sure to excite you (and swipe that plastic!) 

Kompanero means “Companion” and the brand believes that their leather bags are your constant companion. Their new campaign is called “Mates for life”, and we think it could not have been named more aptly.  The fitness couple Milind Soman and Ankita Konwar are the face of their latest campaign because nothing says lobster like those two newlyweds.

Since this was their first campaign after the wedding, it made it all the more special. The photoshoot, conceptualised to transcend time just like Kompanero products, looks nothing but stunning.  From soft pastel shades to dark hues and from duffel bags to sling bags - there wasn’t anything that they couldn’t carry off in style.

At Kompanero you’ll get a wide range of handbags, sling bags, travels bags, wallets, backpacks - all handcrafted out of pure leather and naturally sustainable materials. Everything has a vintage and contemporary touch to it.

What’s new? They have launched belts and footwear, and we dare you to choose just one. Looking for a gift for your dad? Check out Benjamin - The Wallet or an uber cool belt. Or indulge yourself by opting for any of their unique bags.

We really liked Rachel. The Handbag, we mean. It’s an everyday kinda bag because of its classic tan shade and a touch of vintage that speaks volumes. You can also go for Madeline - The Sling if you’re looking for something smaller, yet roomy.

If you’re looking for a bag that will probably last you a lifetime, this is it. You might just find your right one, because no two bags are the same. Also, in addition to being classy and trendy, this brand also believes in doing good by following a practice of sustainable fashion. Talk about beauty all around!

You can find Kompanero at Infiniti Mall (Malad West), Phoenix Marketcity Kurla, Linking Road (Santacruz), L&T Seawoods (Navi Mumbai) and Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (International and Domestic Terminals).
