DeMellier Stockholm Bag Guide: Stockholm, Midi, Small and Shoulder Compared
DeMellier Stockholm Bag Guide: Stockholm, Midi, Small and Shoulder Compared
The Stockholm is DeMellier’s take on the classic bowling bag: a softly curved, zip-top shape with long integrated handles, a dedicated laptop pocket on the full size and an external slip pocket for the things you reach for most. It has become one of the brand’s fastest-growing names in search, and Romee Strijd chose it for the the ICONS 26 collection. There are four sizes. Coveti carries 32 Stockholm styles on 14 October 2026, from $840 to $1,110, in dark brown fine grain, black, bordeaux fine grain, dark chocolate, dark taupe, hazel suede & hazel smooth and more.

Which Stockholm size should you buy?
The full Stockholm is the work bag: a 14 inch laptop and a 6.7 inch phone each get their own compartment, and the handles are long enough for the shoulder. The Midi Stockholm takes a 10 inch tablet and carries by hand in the crook of the arm. The Small Stockholm is the evening and errands size, big enough for a Kindle and a large phone. The Stockholm Shoulder is a different proportion again: long and narrow, an east-west shoulder bag with a 37cm zip opening that fits a large phone, cards and keys.
Why the zip matters
Most DeMellier totes close with a magnet. The Stockholm zips, which makes it the better pick for travel, for busy trains and for anyone who wants a bag that can be set down without spilling. The leather puller is hand-knotted, a small detail that wears in nicely.
Fine grain, suede and croc
Fine grain is the house leather for the Stockholm this season, with a soft hand and a subtle shine; DeMellier says it comes from a Leather Working Group gold-rated tannery in Italy. Suede gives the rounded shape a softer outline. The large croc-effect version reads most formal. Zebra-effect hair calf is the statement, and you will find it on the Stockholm Shoulder.
Stockholm vs Hudson for work
The Hudson is structured and lock-front, the Stockholm is rounded and zip-top. If you carry a 14 inch laptop, both work; the Stockholm is lighter in feel and easier to stuff, while the Hudson keeps a sharper silhouette. See the Hudson guide.
Styling the Stockholm
Its curved, bowling-bag outline balances sharp tailoring, so it works with a long wool coat and straight trousers. The Stockholm Shoulder, tucked under the arm, suits slim knitwear and a leather skirt.
