Crocodile women's bags are a true standard of strength, reliability and sophistication. They are made mainly from the abdominal or dorsal part of a crocodile. Models made from these parts look truly luxurious and expensive, and also indicate the status of the owner. Not everyone can afford such an acquisition. But, in addition to the fact that the bag should look beautiful and elegant, it should also meet such requirements as ease of wearing and maintenance, spaciousness, and be combined with the image.

Features: pros and cons

Of course, any bag made of genuine leather is distinguished by its reliability and durability. Crocodile leather bag even more so. This is perhaps the strongest material for making bags. In addition, the manufacture of any accessories from this material is a rather painstaking process. All products are assembled and sewn by hand, which ultimately affects their value.

Speaking of crocodile leather bags, you need to understand that such products are divided into three groups:

  • alligator leather;
  • crocodile skin;
  • from caiman skin.

Each of these accessories has its own characteristics.

Crocodile skin, for example, is distinguished by the presence of tubercles. These tubercles are located on its head in clearly visible rows: 4-2. Manufacturers are very fond of using this part in the design of their bags.

The most popular part, as mentioned above, is the abdominal. This area of ​​crocodile skin is quite soft and, accordingly, easily processed. The lines of this part of the animal's body have a fairly well-defined geometry and are practically parallel to each other. And in each formed square, you can see a small point, this growth is called "osteoderm".

Alligator skin differs from crocodile skin in that the bumps line up in a 2-2-2 row. The most popular part of this reptile is also the abdominal one, however, the drawing here is not so ordered and looks more like a cobweb. A bag made of this leather looks very original.

One more a distinctive feature is the presence of a star-shaped scar on the alligator's skin. It is on this basis that a bag of this type can be distinguished. In addition, designers are very fond of placing this particular part on their products.

In caimans, the bumps of the head fold in a row, which is described as 4-4-2. Caiman skin is very tough, with many growths, therefore, the peritoneum is mainly used here, since it is much easier to handle. Usually, such bags are somewhat cheaper than the types already presented above, but unscrupulous sellers try to pass them off as a crocodile or alligator.

These bags, of course, have their merits and demerits. The disadvantages of such products include a rather high price and complexity, in contrast to an expensive bag from a low-quality fake. The advantages of such accessories are many:

  • reliability and durability;
  • original appearance;
  • completely handmade;
  • indicates a certain status and prestige of the owner;
  • the originality of each individual product;
  • strength.

Models

There are many models of crocodile leather bags, it can be either a small clutch bag or a large roomy bag. The most popular bag manufacturers Hermes, Chanel, Louis Vuitton use crocodile leather for many of their models. It can be accessories completely finished with this material, or with various inserts or with handles made of crocodile or alligator leather.

The bag can be decorated with gold or silver inserts, with handles in the form of a metal chain.

Previously, the main colors of the products were black, beige or brown. This is due to the fact that the craftsmen who spend so much time dressing the skin of the animal were afraid to ruin their already complex work with dyeing. However, modern technology has changed everything, and now you can buy a bag in yellow, red, blue and any other color.

Models can have various fasteners and zippers, with pockets for documents and phones.

What is the price?

The most popular and affordable crocodile bags are the models sold in Thailand and Vietnam. If you look into our domestic boutiques, you will hardly find a price tag below 35,000 rubles. And, most likely, such a price will be for a sample of caiman leather.

In Vietnam, as in Thailand, the situation is much simpler. Firstly, these animals live on the territory of these countries, and secondly, there are farms where reptiles are bred specifically for these purposes. And there are shops selling various crocodile leather goods on almost every corner. Bags, wallets, belts, shoes, jackets, briefcases, iPhone cases - the list of offered products is quite large. And the price is pretty attractive. For three or four hundred dollars, you can get a fairly good and high-quality copy.

What to wear with?

The crocodile bag is a bag that will definitely never go out of style. Most often, speaking of a handbag made of natural material, many people see nothing but crocodile skin. This is a real classic of the genre, which you still need to be able to beautifully present.

A crocodile leather bag is a rather complicated accessory, and it certainly cannot be called universal. Combining it with your everyday look is difficult, but still possible.

Let's take a look at some simple tips on this matter:

  • Match her shoes or a belt made of crocodile leather, but a different shade or texture. The days of the complete collapse of handbags and shoes are long gone.
  • In no case should such a bag be worn by persons who prefer a sporty style.
  • Such models are great for women who adhere to a business style of dress. Of course, the color in such a combination should be restrained, bright yellow options or fuchsia colors will be inappropriate here.
  • When deciding to go out with such a bag, it is worth remembering that the bag will be the highlight and decoration of the outfit. Clothing should be simple and elegant enough, not provocative and flashy. Otherwise, such an exit will be remembered as a failure, such a lady will also be credited with a complete lack of taste and sense of proportion.
  • Clothes with prints go very badly with crocodile bags. It is better to choose something monochromatic and calm.
  • Material such as silk goes well with such accessories.
  • Can be worn with jeans, but don't forget the heels. Flat shoes will spoil the chic that crocodile leather gives the image.
  • We select the bag according to the size of the body. If you are a big enough lady, do not get carried away by huge bags of green or yellow that are striking. Most likely, the size and brightness of the accessory will attract the eye and, unfortunately, first of all, they will focus on the imperfections of the figure, and the luxury of such a bag will remain incomprehensible.

The main thing is to observe moderation in everything, and then such an accessory will make the image unique and stylish.
