Our Story

For real days. And wherever they take you.

A More Capable Style.

Modern classic handbags for a life in motion. Tom Franklin brings a refined point of view to everyday dressing, with styles that feel at home in your routine—and open to a change of plans.

Style has a place in ordinary life. In the morning coffee stop, the commute, the long lunch that becomes an afternoon out. In familiar streets and cities you’re still getting to know. These are the moments we think about: real days with somewhere to go and a few things worth bringing along.

Our point of view starts with the modern classic. We’re drawn to familiar shapes with a fresh sense of proportion, distinctive texture, and details that give a bag its own character. There’s room for restraint and room for something more expressive. The connection is an ease of dressing—a bag that makes sense with what you already love to wear.

That perspective runs through the collection. The Mercer Double-Zip Crossbody brings a compact option to the everyday rotation, while the Solana Woven Shoulder Bag and Marlow Woven Satchel offer different ways to wear texture. The Isla Woven Tote and Valencia Crochet Hobo take the mood in a more relaxed direction.

Travel is part of how we see style, whether it means a weekend away or taking a different route home. We like a considered wardrobe with room for possibility: familiar pieces worn in new combinations, a change of scenery, fewer decisions before heading out.

Tom Franklin is for people who enjoy getting dressed and have a life to get on with. Refined without ceremony. Expressive without excess. A more capable style, wherever the day takes you.
