SS24: Supple shapes, surprising colors and excellent leather quality
Above all, Burkely impresses with its everyday and combinable models: From bags and wallets to backpacks and weekender bags, the label offers a balance between style and functionality that meets the demands of German customers.
Soft skylar
This capsule combines modern design with old craftsmanship – soft hobo bags and backpacks in shopper form, as well as smaller leather accessories that simplify everyday life are the focus. The color palette with beige tones and classic black underlines the natural origin of the leather. The timeless style and versatility of the Soft Skylar bags stand for sustainable and responsible purchasing decisions. The leather manufacturers of these bags are certified by the Leather Working Group – an organization that evaluates environmental influences in leather production.
Lush Lucy
With the pockets of the Lush -Lucy capsule, Burkely emphasizes feminine, supple shapes and plays with minimalism and refined details. Butter-soft, LWG-certified leather and soft silhouettes create a sophisticated yet relaxed look. Crescent-shaped shoulder bags, rectangular models with a soft cut and versatile wallets are the focus, the color palette uses classic colors such as black, blue, cognac and cream.
Keen Keira
With the Keen Keira line, Burkely presents classic bags whose shapes and functions have proven themselves for decades. Classic bucket bags, which can be worn as a bag or backpack, line up next to wallets with short, attached handles. The eye-catcher of this capsule is a cylindrical model that is reminiscent of vintage models. With a strong fuchsia and a trendy sage green, Berkeley offers colorful alternatives for the summer season. This collection uses Tasco VT leather, dyed with a natural tanning agent derived from plants and trees. This creates unique colors. The leather has a grain structure that gives the bags extra depth and character. This capsule also uses leather that comes from LWG-certified tanneries.
rock ruby
Rock Ruby springs from a rocking take on Burkely, bringing a touch of rebellion to the SS24 collection. Dynamic shapes and bold colors contrast with richly detailed designs that express equal parts pride and vulnerability. Boxy, compact cuts meet zipper details, a fiery red and an avant-garde silver ensure variety in the color palette. The leather used for the Rock Ruby models has a slight sheen, which not only brings out the colors but also protects the material. This leather also comes from LWG-certified tanneries.
Minimal Mason
The Minimal Mason series focuses on stylish functionality and produces models that are suitable for work, school or travel. The bags serve both men’s and women’s design requirements and deliver practicality – wherever they are used. From roll-top backpacks with sporty buckles to dynamic fanny packs and laptop bags, as well as spacious weekender bags, this capsule caters for cosmopolitan city dwellers and adventurous globetrotters.
Cool Colbie
The Cool Colbie models join the SS24 collection with textured models – Burkely’s ever-popular 3D crocodile print decorates the pockets of this capsule. The classic pattern gives the designs elegance and is available in the colors black, cognac, beige and white. An eye-catcher of this capsule is a mini shopper that can be worn crossbody or on the hand. You’ll also find a proven selection of work bags with enough compartments to keep all your belongings safe and organized. There is a suitable model for every occasion in this range. The soft Hunter leather that Cool Colbie bags are made from will soften and supple with use, making the bags more unique over time. The bags in the Cool Colbie collection are easy to mix and match and last a whole season.
