Practical Suede Bags Are Trending for Fall and Winter 2024

It feels like every time I scroll through Instagram, I spot a celebrity in a suede ensemble. From Jennifer Lopez in her braided suede bag to Bella Hadid rocking a brown suede tote (cowboy boyfriend influence, perhaps?), it’s clear that suede is here to stay.

I’m pretty excited about this trend. After all, a suede bag goes with everything, adds texture and dimension to even the simplest outfits, and is impressively durable (except on rainy days—then it’s best to leave it inside). And the good news is there’s no shortage of suede bag options on the market, from slouchy totes to structured bucket bags and even suede clutches perfect for holding just a tube of lipstick. The lack of a strict template makes shopping all the more fun, allowing you to experiment with incorporating suede into your wardrobe.

While many suede bags come in classic neutral shades like dark brown or black, some brands add a pop of color with options like moss green, maroon, or navy for a subtle twist on the usual palette. There’s truly something for everyone. So, below, I’ve rounded up 10 of my favorites. Act fast—many of these are currently on sale for Black Friday and beyond through Cyber Monday.

Reformation Small Vittoria Leather Tote

As soon as I spotted the bow detail on this Reformation tote, I was sold. Available in both black suede and bog (a greenish hue), this bag instantly elevates any outfit. Plus, it features a magnetic closure, so you don’t have to worry about everything spilling out the moment you set it down.

J.Crew Berkeley Bucket Bag

This classic bucket bag from J.Crew is the perfect one for those who need to carry a laptop while balancing a design that’s somewhere between slouchy and structured. It’s especially ideal for winter, available in shades like walnut brown, oxblood, and classic black.

Madewell the Essential Medium Bucket Tote

Madewell is one of my go-to brands for bags, thanks to their long lasting quality. What I love most about this particular bag is its adjustable shoulder strap, allowing you to customize the fit— no more annoying sliding down your arm with every step. Available in three rich shades—deep merlot, chocolate raisin, and true black—it’s tough to choose, but hey, options!

Rag & Bone Belize Suede Shopper

It’s the small details that make this relaxed Rag and Bone tote stand out: a lobster clasp closure and an adjustable shoulder strap that lets it sit exactly where you want it.
