Floto Ischia Leather Handbag

Floto was established in 2003 after Joe Floto brought back a leather travel bag from Italy and noticed that everywhere he went with it, people asked, "Where did you get that bag?" This prompted the creation of the Floto brand, which specializes in Italian hand-stained leather products that are metal-free, sustainable, and not harmful to people. The centuries-old Tuscan tanning tradition used by Floto produces colorful leather that is easy to craft and gets better with age.

On average, a Floto leather bag will pass through 28 different workbenches at the company's factory in Florence, Italy, where the skilled artisans practice techniques handed down for generations. The process includes cutting, skiving, gluing, sanding, painting, internal assembly, hand stitching, and riveting. The Floto team takes pride in their work and finds time to laugh and appreciate life, arriving early, taking a long lunch and nap, and then working into the evening, enjoying wine and pasta for dinner.

The Ischia Shoulder Bag is a prime example of Floto's quality craftsmanship. Made with full-grain calfskin leather that was vegetable-tanned in Tuscany to create rich color tones, the bag has a semi-gloss finish to help prevent stains. The interior is lined with durable 8-ounce cotton duck canvas made in South Carolina, and the combination of Italian leather, Italian craftsmanship, and U.S.-made lining results in a high-quality, lightweight handbag.

Measuring 15" high, 14" long, and 5" wide, with a 9" drop, the Ischia Shoulder Bag features two smartphone pockets, two pen holders, an inside zip compartment, and an inside zip pocket. The detachable crossbody strap adjusts from 42" to 46". All Floto leather bags are handcrafted in Florence, Italy, and the company stands by its products, offering a limited lifetime warranty.

Floto is an American brand, with the leather bags designed and packaged in the United States. As a small, family-owned company, Floto is grateful for its customers and committed to ensuring their satisfaction. If any problems arise with a Floto bag during its natural life, the customer can send it to the company's Connecticut workshop for repair.

Floto's mission is to refine old-world craft methods to make superior, high-quality leather goods. The brand's products, including handbags, backpacks, briefcases, and wallets, are designed to help customers "always arrive in style." Floto's dedication to craftsmanship, sustainability, and customer service sets it apart as a leading provider of exceptional leather goods.
