What’s included?Only the bags and yerberos specified in the listing are included, including items called a “kit”. Mate gourds and thermoses are not included.
Natural marks and scars in the leather are part of each handmade bag. I leave them visible because they make every matera unique.
Built for everyday use and designed specifically for mate lovers, this handcrafted matera combines rugged waxed canvas with genuine chrome-tanned leather for a classic, durable look that only gets better with use.
The roomy interior is lined with heavy-duty waterproof Cordura and includes dedicated storage to keep your mate setup organized rather than letting everything roll around in the bottom of the bag like civilization has completely collapsed.
Inside you’ll find a built-in thermos holder, bombilla holder, and a large interior pocket for your yerba, phone, wallet, keys, or other essentials.
A heavy-duty adjustable cotton strap allows the bag to be worn comfortably over the shoulder or crossbody. Premium metal hardware is used throughout for durability and a finished, high-quality appearance.

The combination of waxed canvas and natural leather means each bag develops its own character over time. Small variations, marks, and changes in tone are part of the material and make every matera slightly different.
Designed for mate, but versatile enough to work as an everyday shoulder bag, travel bag, or casual crossbody.
A rugged, practical matera made for people who actually carry their mate everywhere, not just when somebody is taking pictures for Instagram.
