Review: Claret Split

The Split is made of dark gray vegan leather

When it comes to fashion, Claret knows what they're doing. Their designs are what you'd expect from a high-end line, yet they are made of PETA-approved vegan leather. Their Split clutch is a versatile entry in their collection, serving as both a bag for a night out and a shoulder bag.

Pros:

• PETA-approved patent vegan leather
• Small but functional size
• Can be worn as a shoulder bag
• Beautiful jade twill lining
• Quality hardware and construction
• Relatively affordable
  

Cons:

• Only available in one color currently

Summary:

Clutch strap on the back side

This clutch is made of beautiful dark gray patent vegan leather. The hardware is what you'd expect from high-end lines, with careful attention paid to subtle details. For example, the metal point on the front flap has slightly rounded edges so it is soft and easy to touch. The bag itself is cleverly designed, with a jade twill lined clutch strap on the back and hidden metal loops for an included shoulder strap. There is also an interior zipper pocket (also lined in twill) that opens quite easily with the cork-inspired zipper pull. With plenty of room inside for the essentials and a few other items, this bag is a practical yet compact size. I was really impressed with the details on this bag, and $85 seems quite a bargain for something of this quality. I would love to see it in additional colors and perhaps a non-patent finish at some point in the future. With so many reasons to love it, the Split is a versatile and stylish option suitable for any fashionable lady, vegan or not.
