This gorgeous ladies handbag and matching clutch designed by actress, presenter and disability campaigner Samantha Renke is brimming with accessible features. Available in a palette of pretty, fashion-forward colours, it’s suitable for anyone with mobility problems, dexterity issues and/or sight loss.
Created and designed by Samantha, these beautiful bags perfectly balance both style and functionality, with each bag boasting a whole plethora of useful design features that, although created with disabled people in mind, will benefit everyone in terms of daily practicality and promoting your personal panache!
The bag is available in classic and extra sizes – both bags have the same fantastic accessible features as listed below, however, the Sam extra is larger in size and includes a clear make-up bag and side-straps for securing to a wheelchair or around the waist.
The accessibility features include:
- insulated bottle holder to help you stay hydrated
classic maximum bottle size – 260ml
extra maximum bottle size – 500ml - high-contrast interior lining to make finding items easier
- hidden zip-pocket for private/sensitive items
- mobile phone and pen pockets to stop you from having to search for them
- large, fabric zip pulls that are easy to use if you have dexterity issues
- elasticated key chain to stop you from losing important and regularly-used items
- matching removable clutch bag with wrist strap
- long shoulder strap with mobility clips to attach it to a wheelchair or wear across the body
Dimensions:
- Sam classic – W 36cm x H 28cm x D 10.5cm
- Sam extra – W 38cm x H 31cm x D 15cm
Being a self-proclaimed fashionista, Samantha knows how important combining practicality with style is – and her range of handbags are anything but utilitarian in aesthetic.
Available in a wide-ranging palette of colours and finishes, there is a bag to suit every taste, season and event – from a contemporary metallic silver finish for nights out to traditional black for work, and even a striking teal colour for the weekend.
Much like Samantha herself, this fab bag isn’t just good looks – and what is inside definitely counts! Created with everyone in mind, the accessible and inclusive features built-in to each bag are designed to make everyday life easier and more organised.
