The story

A slim, flat Kelly meant to be worn on the shoulder or carried as a clutch, with the familiar Kelly flap and turnlock on a much thinner body.

It arrived in 2019 and caught on fast as a lighter, everyday way to carry a Kelly.

It is easier to get than a Kelly 25 but still not freely sold, so it trades above retail.

Epsom and Madame leathers in neutrals are the strongest resale combinations.

Our verdict: A lighter, easier Kelly that still resells above retail.
