Is the Sloan bag real suede or leather?

The body is genuine suede with leather trim. The suede gives it a soft, matte look that differs from the smooth leather Sloans.

How much does the Small Sloan hold?

It is a small bag: a phone, cardholder or small wallet, keys and a lipstick fit comfortably. It is not sized for a tablet, water bottle or full-size wallet plus pouch.

Can I wear it in the rain?

Suede absorbs water and can spot, so it is best kept out of rain. Treat it with a suede protector before first use and blot, don't rub, if it gets wet.

How do I clean chamois suede?

Brush the nap with a suede brush when dry and use a suede eraser on marks. For deeper stains, take it to a leather and suede specialist rather than washing it.

Does it work as an everyday bag?

For light carry, yes. If you haul a laptop, planner or gym gear, a larger leather tote or crossbody will serve you better.

How does it compare with the larger Sloan bags?

Same slouchy Sloan styling and zip top, but less capacity and a lighter feel on the shoulder. Choose the small for evenings and errands, the larger for workdays.

Our take on the Dooney & Bourke Suede Small Sloan Bag

The Dooney & Bourke Small Sloan is a compact shoulder bag in genuine suede with leather trim, closed by a top zipper. It carries the Sloan line's slouchy shape and signature details in a smaller size, so it holds a phone, wallet and a few small items rather than a full day's gear. Against structured leather crossbodies, it trades rigid organization for a softer, dressier look. Owners of suede bags generally prize the texture but know it needs care around rain and light-colored clothing.
