For autumn-winter 2026, Le Tanneur introduces Emilien, a new tote bag designed for men. A nod to Emie, one of the Maison's signature bags, it keeps the same clean, characterful look in a roomy shoulder bag format.

Soft, but Holds Its Shape

Emilien is a new format for the Maison. Its construction keeps it supple without losing its shape, so it moulds to the body and stays comfortable on the shoulder all day. Measuring 42.5 x 34.5 x 16 cm, it offers generous storage.

Grained Full-Grain Leather

Emilien is made from grained full-grain cowhide, in black, the only colour for this model. Full-grain leather keeps its surface intact and natural: it is the top layer of the hide. The visible grain gives the bag texture and a pleasant feel. The edges are raw-cut and the lining is 100% navy cotton.

Understated Design, Signature Details

The design stays understated, with a few considered details: buckles designed by Le Tanneur's in-house style studio for this line, a silver finish and a discreet logo. The look is modern and masculine, equally at home day to day and in the office.

Organised Inside

Inside, there is one flat pocket with a press-stud fastening, three flat pockets, two pen loops and a key clip. Your essentials stay organised and protected, every day or for a weekend away.
