Made in Italy, the bag measures 6.75 inches in height, 11.75 inches in length, and 3.5 inches in depth; user feedback notes the thin strap may cause discomfort and the metal clasp can scratch easily, but the lambskin leather lining is praised for its quality.","url":"https://www.simons.ca/en/men-designer/accessories/bags/pillow-griffin-bag--8946-1667724?colourId=0","brand":"Rick Owens","condition":"new","product_category":"men designer > accessories > bags","material":"Shell: 100% calf leather;
