Let us make you your bespoke bag. You decide. How cool is that?!
Customized monsak bag
The monsak collection is a fixed one. We have several models within our collection, but you can always customize the bags. You can customize it by adding an additional zip pocket, your initials, multiple straps, different colors et cetera. This way you can ensure that the monsak bag becomes your favorite bag.

You and monsak will become a dream team and together we will make your vision come to life. Is your current favorite bag all worn? Margriet will happily make you a new and improved one. That process will start once we’ve properly said goodbye to your old bag ;).
Eco-leather bags
All our bags are handmade in our atelier in Amsterdam. All with low impact on the environment and animal. We do so by using environmentally friendly leather, which we call rescued leather. Rescued leather is leather that has been discarded by big brands – within the fashion, automotive and interior industry – and we give it a new life. The leather is discarded because of the color or small imperfections. At monsak we cut around the imperfections and we have ever-changing colors within our fixed collection, making each bag a one of a kind and minimizing the chances of bumping into someone with the same exact leather bag.
Aside from environmentally friendly materials, we make sure our bags are delivered in a sustainable manner. monsak has partnered with fietskoeriers.nl to make sure that your package is delivered to you by bike or by electric carrier.
We want you to enjoy your bag for years to come and that is why we spray the bag before sending it to you. And we offer a lifetime guarantee on your leather bag. You can always contact us or stop by our atelier in Amsterdam. Just be sure to let us know you are stopping by so we can welcome you with open arms.
