Tallis & Tefillin Bag in Black Leather with Five Fur and Velvet Looks #5015

Five finishes carry #5015, four of them on black leather. Black fur is the plain version. Black and white fur adds the streaked contrast. Grey fur cools the whole bag down without introducing colour. Light blue fur is the outlier and genuinely changes the character of the design — it is the option people either want immediately or not at all. The fifth drops fur altogether: grey leather with antique velvet, a matte pairing with real depth to it.

Bar mitzvah size is 10.5 by 10 inches, large talis is 14 by 14, extra large is 16 by 16. Most adults land on the 14 by 14, which takes a folded tallis and both tefillin comfortably. The extra large is for heavier wool or for a man who wants slack in the bag.

The light blue is worth considering for a bar mitzvah bochur. It is distinct enough that he recognises his own bag on a crowded shelf in yeshiva, and the leather body keeps it from looking like a child's item.
