Napoli is a bag case with an adjustable shoulder strap. It has a front pocket with curved or rectangular edges and two patch pockets on the back. A press stud can be added for closure.
It comes in 3 sizes and it's ideal for cards, a smartphone or a pair of (sun)glasses. The largest size can hold an A5 notebook.
We recommend light and robust fabrics: cotton, linen, soft leather, etc. Avoid fabrics that are too thick: it will be difficult to get a nice finish with clean edges when assembling the different layers of fabric. You can also skip the patch pockets on the back.
Our Napoli bags were cut from soft leather and cotton canvas in an icy brown colour. The two-tone model was sewn with an ecru cotton twill and a scrap of shiny black leatherette.
Minimum amounts of fabric for a width of between 90cm (35.4") and 1m50 (59.1"): 1m10 (43.3") or 2m10 (82.7", if you prefer to sew the strap in one piece).
You will also need:
- matching or contrasting thread,
- a 14 or 15mm (0.55" r 0.59") press stud (optional),
- a serger (optional).
