ALCAIDE MESSENGER
A tribute to Alcaide Village
Inspired by old-fashioned military bags, Alcaide is a cotton canvas and vegetable-tanned leather messenger carefully handcrafted in Portugal by Ideal & Co. Alcaide is the result of our ambition to create a casual bag for everyday use. Its timeless design combines functionality, style and durability.
With three compartments in the interior (one for laptop and two for multiple uses), the bag has space for all everyday items. It also has two extra exterior pockets, one in the front and the other in the back. You can use it as a briefcase, on the shoulder or as a backpack. It comes with an adjustable and detachable shoulder strap.
The label is dated and signed by the artisan who has made the piece.

Our collection of bags and backpacks is ethically handcrafted in Portugal by skilled artisans, who personally sign every piece. Bringing tradition and contemporaneity together in the design, construction and finish of each piece, Ideal & Co seeks to reinterpret, preserve and share the beauty of what is genuine and Made in Portugal.
Vegetable-tanned full-grain leather constitutes the backbone of the Ideal & Co collection, giving our leathers unique natural characteristics and keeping its natural texture intact. Our leather is tanned with vegetable tannins and dyed with natural water-soluble colourants, developing a rich patina over time. We also use selvedge canvas to produce our bags and backpacks, a material exclusively created for Ideal & Co by the last factory in the Iberian Peninsula that manufactures this sturdy 100% cotton fabric.
