Palomino Saddle Tote XL
Regular price $425.00
A little more room. A lot more presence.
There are bags you carry because you need somewhere to put your things. And then there are bags you choose because they feel unmistakably yours.
Meet the Palomino Saddle Tote XL.
For the person who loves a beautiful bag but refuses to sacrifice practicality, Palomino XL offers both.
Its generous silhouette makes room for the things your day demands, including a laptop up to 16 inches, while its intricate hand-tooled leather gives it a presence that ordinary work totes simply don’t have.
Take it to a meeting. Carry it through the airport. Pack it for an afternoon that turns into an evening out.
You don’t have to change bags every time your plans change.
The beauty is in the details.
Look closely at Palomino’s hand-tooled design. The texture, the curves, the character of the leather—these are the details that make you reach for it again tomorrow.
Crafted in small batches from full-grain vegetable-tanned leather, Palomino XL isn’t meant to look exactly the same forever.
The leather will soften. Its color will deepen. A beautiful patina will develop with time and use.
And that’s part of the pleasure of owning it.
Designed to be carried. Made to be noticed.
- Room for your day: A spacious main compartment accommodates work essentials, travel necessities, and select laptops up to 16 inches.
- A place for the little things: An interior slip pocket keeps smaller essentials within reach.
- Two ways to carry: Choose the reinforced top handle or adjustable leather shoulder strap.
- Distinctive craftsmanship: Intricate hand-tooling and a signature leather strap-and-ring closure give Palomino its unmistakable character.
- Beautifully natural: An unlined interior lets you appreciate the leather inside and out.

| Smaller essentials | The interior slip pocket helps keep smaller belongings within reach. Individual pocket fit depends on item size. |

Actual capacity varies with the size and arrangement of your belongings. For a specific device-fit question, contact hello@chuupul.com with your device’s dimensions before purchasing.
Some bags are replaced. Others become part of your story.
Palomino XL is the kind of bag you grow attached to—the one you reach for before leaving home, the one that travels with you, the one that becomes more beautiful because you’ve actually lived with it.
Handcrafted in small batches, it offers something increasingly difficult to find: individuality.
Choose the bag you’ll look forward to carrying.
What makes Chuupul Leather different?
Every Chuupul Leather piece is handcrafted in small batches using premium full-grain leather selected for its character, durability, and ability to age beautifully over time.
We don’t mass produce. We craft intentionally.
Natural leather develops a unique patina, carries authentic markings, and becomes more beautiful with every journey.
No two Chuupul Leather pieces are exactly alike—and that’s exactly how we designed them.
Is every bag handmade?
Yes.
Every Chuupul Leather piece is individually handcrafted in limited production runs. Small variations are a natural result of genuine craftsmanship and contribute to the uniqueness of every item.
Why doesn’t my bag look exactly like the photographs?
Because genuine leather is a natural material.
Every hide has its own grain, texture, color variation, healed scars, wrinkles, and natural markings.
Product photographs are representative. The piece you receive will naturally vary slightly, making it uniquely yours.
Will my leather bag scratch or change over time?
Yes—and that’s part of its beauty.
Full-grain leather develops character through everyday use. Minor scuffs often blend naturally over time, while the leather gradually softens and develops a rich patina.
Rather than wearing out, quality leather develops a story.
How do I care for my leather bag?
Leather care is simple.
- Store your bag in its dust bag when not in use.
- Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or standing water.
- Avoid overstuffing to help maintain its shape.
- Apply a quality leather conditioner once or twice each year, or as needed.
With proper care, your Chuupul Leather piece is designed to last for many years.
What is a pre-order?
Many Chuupul Leather products are offered through limited production runs.
A pre-order reserves production time and materials specifically for your item before it is handcrafted.
Estimated production timelines are provided on each product page and may vary slightly due to the handcrafted nature of our products.
Why are some products sold out?
We intentionally produce in small batches rather than mass quantities.
Many collections are released in limited numbers, and some designs may not return once they sell out.
If you find a piece you love, we recommend purchasing while it is available.
When will my order ship?
In-stock orders typically ship within 3–4 business days.
Orders are generally shipped on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, excluding holidays.
Pre-orders ship according to the estimated production timeline listed on the product page.
Tracking information is emailed as soon as your order ships.
Can I return my order?
Approved returns are issued as store credit.
Because every Chuupul Leather piece is handcrafted in small batches, we encourage customers to carefully review product descriptions, dimensions, photographs, and our Customer Agreement before placing an order.
For complete eligibility requirements, please review our Customer Agreement.
Do you offer refunds?
Refunds to the original payment method are not part of our standard return policy.
Approved returns are generally issued as store credit unless otherwise required by law or approved at Chuupul Leather’s discretion.
What if I ordered the wrong item?
If you selected the wrong item when placing your order, this is considered an ordering mistake, not a fulfillment error. Ordering mistakes are not eligible for a refund to the original payment method under our standard return terms. Any approved return is generally issued as store credit, unless otherwise required by law or approved at Chuupul Leather’s discretion.
If Chuupul Leather sent you an item different from the one on your order, please contact our Customer Experience team immediately at hello@chuupul.com so we can review the issue and determine an appropriate resolution.

How do I contact Customer Experience?
Email is the official customer service channel for Chuupul Leather.
For questions regarding an order, return, exchange, shipping concern, or other request requiring review, please contact:
Email allows our Customer Experience team to carefully review order information, photographs, shipping documentation, tracking information, and previous correspondence. This helps us provide accurate assistance while maintaining a complete record of your request.
Do you offer phone support?
Chuupul Leather is a working leather studio, and our team is often engaged in production, order preparation, packing, and shipping throughout the day. For this reason, we are unable to provide live telephone customer service.
Requests involving orders, returns, exchanges, shipping concerns, or other matters requiring review are handled exclusively by email so that we can properly review the details and maintain an accurate record of your request.
