Summer has been and gone, the children have gone back to school and the mornings are getting chillier. It can only mean one thing –
Autumn is close by, bringing with it the beginning of a new term for college and university students everywhere. Whether you’re starting your A-Levels, or completing a Masters degree, one thing is certain – you need just the right supplies to get the most out of your higher education, whatever the subject. So read on for the Scaramanga guide to getting kitted out for the new term, and guarantee top marks all semester long.
University and college courses are renowned for one thing – heavy textbooks and endless files and folders, which means a super strong, spacious bag is paramount. All of our vintage satchels are suitable for guys and girls, and come in a variety of shapes, sizes and finishes. For those who like a classic look, the
15 inch leather satchel, from £70.00, is the choice for you. Available in either distressed or tan finishes, and with or without front pocket, it’s roomy enough to squeeze in books and even a laptop.
Fancy the satchel style but with a bit of a twist? Look no further than our brand new classic
girl's coloured satchel collection, with the usual Scaramanga quality but constructed from either red, blue or black leather. The
14.5 inch version, £76.00, also features a front pocket, perfect for keeping your mobile phone and keys safe.
For those with courses that come complete with more textbooks than the local bookshop, choose one of our roomier
Overlander leather satchel bags, £115.00 for the sixteen inch model, and
£125.00 for the slightly larger eighteen inch version. These superb bags feature not only a huge main compartment, but also an expandable front pocket which is perfect for any paperwork you might have to carry.
Note taking and research is a huge part of university and college life, and there’s nothing more uninspiring when it comes to learning than dull, mass-produced notebooks. Instead, why not opt for one of our fabulous
leather journals or notebooks, in a range of sizes and prices. The
large leather notebook, £25.00, and
extra large leather sketchbook, £32.50, are ideal for art and design students searching for that perfect way to jot down notes and sketch out ideas, while the
medium leather bound journal, £12.50, is the solution to anybody who likes to write a lot without having to carry large books around. For the technology fans, there’s also the option of our
leather i-Pad cover, £30.00, made from the same
strong leather as our bags, and with either a red or black fleecy lining. Keep pens and pencils neat and tidy with one of our pencil cases, such as the
large leather pencil case, £7.50, or the
leather pencil case, £6.00.
Whether it’s for books or baked beans, nights out or field trips, money is an essential part of student life. Keep the pennies safe with one of our many wallets or purses, like the
men’s leather wallet, £20.00, which has six credit card compartments, and a transparent section for driving licenses or ID cards, or the
brown leather purse, £35.00, which has ten credit card compartments and a zipped coin purse. For the ladies, go for either of our
women’s brown leather purses, £25.00, and £27.50, which are the perfect satchel accessory and have a number of useful compartments and sections.
