ESPE ed.1, a love for detail and timeless sophistication blend into a delightful statement for those who seek more from their accessory. Crafted with premium materials, this bag effortlessly defies the chaos of daily life. Despite its compact size, ESPE ed.1 reveals a surprisingly thoughtful interior: The generous depth provides ample space for all essential everyday items, while multiple interior compartments ensure organized storage.
Interior: Cotton-lined. Two main compartments, one with an additional side compartment. The main compartments are divided by another zipped inner pocket.
Ways to wear: Carry yours as hand, shoulder or crossbody bag.
Combinations: ESPE ed.1 can easily be combined with our micro bag X.LOMI ed.2 or X.LIO ed.1. Just attach it to the strap. To highlight your bag, combine it with our characteristic keychains BALL’N’CHAIN ed.1 or BALLCHAIN SLING ed.1.

This item is made from minimally pigmented, predominantly natural leather whose surface is finished with a thin layer of shimmering metallic pigments sprayed on in a multi-stage process. This fine coating gives the leather its characteristic silky sheen while keeping the natural grain visible. Because the sprayed finish is very thin and open-pored, subtle variations in colour and texture are inherent to the material.
The sprayed metallic layer offers light, but not complete, protection against external influences. Sprayed leather is sensitive to friction, moisture, oils, heat and solvents. Over time, the surface may become more matte, the metallic effect may soften, and the underlying leather may become more visible – a natural process that contributes to the development of a unique patina.
To best protect your INA KENT bag, we recommend:
- Before first use, apply a small amount of a suitable leather care product designed for coated or metallic-finished leathers, dabbing it on gently with a soft cloth. Repeat occasionally to maintain protection.
- Cleaning with a soft, dry or slightly damp cotton or microfiber cloth – do not rub or scrub, as the thin sprayed layer may wear off.
- Avoid contact with water, humidity, strong sunlight or heat, as these can cause discolouration, spotting, or changes to the metallic finish.
- Avoid contact with oils, fats, cosmetics, sunscreen, perfume, and hand sanitiser, as these may damage or stain the sprayed surface.
- Keep away from rough or abrasive surfaces, as scratches and abrasion will be clearly visible on sprayed leather.
- Do not use conventional waterproofing sprays, greases, or waxes unless explicitly suitable for metallic-finished or coated leather – many contain solvents that may damage the finish.
- Avoid contact with colour-transferring materials (e.g. dark denim), particularly on lighter metallic colours.
- For more significant signs of wear, we recommend consulting a professional leather care specialist.
