Rather Good Doesn't Even Begin to Cover It
Right, let's be honest. You've probably got a rucksack already. It's functional, practical, utterly uninspiring. This one is rather different. Handcrafted in England from proper leather with a touch of self-aware fussiness, our City Backpack manages to be both thoroughly practical and fabulously made without taking itself too seriously. It's a bag that works as hard as you do, and looks splendid doing it.
Why Choose Our Handmade Leather City Backpack
Traditional British Craftsmanship: Each backpack is carefully constructed using time-honoured techniques and the finest leather we can get our hands on, resulting in something beautifully crafted that'll actually improve with age.
Gloriously Versatile: Wear it as a proper backpack or sling it over your shoulder as a messenger bag. The matching stitching and silver nickel buckles give it that perfectly understated finish.
Utterly Fetching Customisation: Keep the traditional buckle fastenings or personalise your bag with optional magnetic fastenings. Add adjustable strap sliders for improved comfort and security if you're feeling fancy.
Sized for Real Life: The small version fits tablets and laptops up to 10 inches. The Plus size accommodates devices up to 13 inches. No faffing about, just proper proportions.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!
PAYMENT

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
