Leather Book-Inspired Satchels

The Olde Messenger Book Bag is Bound Book-Inspired

— March 26, 2016 — Fashion
Capable of keeping a 15-inch laptop safe inside, the Olde Messenger Book Bag offers a rather geeky way of keeping your educational components securely with you. Designed after the aesthetic of leather bound books, the bag features a strap that looks like one found on an ancient text. With the book design on its side, the bag features a strap that extends out from the spine of the text.

Although the intricate detailing of the Olde Messenger Book Bag makes it look as though it's crafted from leather, the design is actually made from polyurethane with a polyester lining. The bag can be used with or without the padded interior section, which means it's ideal for laptops, but also books as the design would denote.
Trend Themes
1. Book-inspired Bags - The trend of book-inspired bags offers opportunities for fashion and accessory industries to tap into a niche market of literature-loving consumers.
2. Faux Leather Design - The use of polyurethane material to mimic the look of leather offers opportunities for eco-conscious industries to create sustainable and affordable products without sacrificing style.
3. Multi-purpose Bags - The trend of multi-purpose bags that can be used for laptops and books offers opportunities for tech and educational industries to collaborate with fashion and accessory industries for functional yet stylish products.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - The fashion industry can capitalize on the book-inspired bag trend to offer a unique and niche addition to their accessories line.
2. Accessories - The accessories industry can take advantage of the faux leather design trend to respond to consumer demand for sustainable and affordable products that do not compromise style.
3. Education Technology - The education technology industry can collaborate with fashion and accessory industries to create multi-purpose bags that cater to modern-day students' needs for carrying both laptops and books while adding a trendy flair.
