The XS holds the evening - phone, a cardholder, keys, a lipstick, nothing heavy. The S carries the whole ordinary day - wallet, sunglasses in their case, a little pouch, sunscreen. The M is the one that travels - a pareo, a book, a water bottle, a scarf for the breeze. Choose by the day in front of you, not by the centimetre.
Why we count the day, not the litres
In the atelier we never speak of a bag in litres. We think instead of the day it will keep you company through - a morning weaving past the spice stalls, a long lunch under the fig shade, the evening when you want your hands free for everything else. Each one is woven here in Guéliz, banana leaf and raffia worked over roughly 48 hours across six unhurried days, so it reaches you already warm with a little of this city. Knowing what fits, then, is simply the kindest way to choose well. Rooted in Marrakech, made for wherever you carry it.
The XS - your evening essentials
The XS is the one that finishes a look without a word. A phone, a cardholder, the house keys, a lipstick, sunglasses tucked in bare without their case. It was never meant to hold everything - it is for the night you want to carry almost nothing and feel lighter for it. Small, deliberate, the colour of late sun.
The S - your everyday carry
The S is the one my own hand reaches for most mornings. Phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses safe in their case, a small pouch, a little sunscreen - the whole ordinary day, held lightly on the shoulder. It lives in the space between beautiful and useful and never makes you pick one over the other. Easy, honest, the one for every day.
The M - market, seaside, family lunch
The M is the one that keeps pace with a moving day. A folded pareo, a book, a pouch, sunglasses, a water bottle, sunscreen, a thin scarf for the breeze that lifts off the water in the afternoon. Market at first light, the sea by noon, a long family lunch after - it carries the lot without complaint. Roomy, sun-warmed, generous.
Why we show you, not just measure
The measurements are there, of course - but a number on a screen rarely tells you how a bag will sit against your hip. So instead we photograph what fits: real things laid out on a real morning, packed the way your own hands would pack them. Because what guides us here is not speed but intention. Movement over measurement, always.

FAQ
A tablet slips comfortably into the M; a full laptop asks more of these bags than they are made to give. They were woven for the day out - a book, a pouch, the things you take to the water - not for the desk.
If you want a single bag for most days, take the S - it holds the everyday carry without ever feeling heavy. Keep the XS for evenings, and the M for the mornings you set out toward the market or the sea.
Not at all - Fatima hand-crochets each raffia charm to hang from the handle, so it rests on the outside and leaves the whole inside free. Think of it as a little colour and joy coming along for the day.
