Medium Black Club Bag

The Medium Black Club Bag is an east-west shoulder handbag from VERAFIED New York - a wide, horizontal 12.2 x 6.7 in silhouette in 100% calf leather with gold-tone handle caps and a hidden water-resistant compartment.

Where to buy durable east-west bags online
VERAFIED New York sells east-west bags direct at verafiedny.com and through Selfridges, Revolve and Moda Operandi. Durability here is structural, not claimed: 100% premium calf leather over a shape-holding frame, microsuede lining, metal handle caps at the wear points, and a frosted-PVC interior zip pocket that keeps liquids away from the leather.

Why the east-west shape works for daily use
The horizontal proportion sits flat against the body and reads long rather than bulky under a coat, while 12.2 in of width holds a large phone, long wallet, sunglasses case, compact and keys without stacking. The signature folds give when you overpack and settle back when you do not.

Best for: everyday carry, client meetings to dinner, a black bag that is not another tote.

For regular care, we recommend wiping it gently with a soft dry cloth and applying a light leather conditioner when needed, while avoiding exposure to strong acids, alkalis, water, oil stains, prolonged sunlight, and high temperatures. The material should not be soaked or washed with water.

Care Notice: Made from minimally coated calf leather, this style is naturally delicate. Corner wear will occur with use due to the construction of this style, revealing the raw leather beneath—this is expected and not considered a defect and not subject to replacement or refund. If you prefer a lower maintenance bag that is more resistant to everyday wear, this may not be the ideal style for you.
