The story

SB Accessories (Pty) Ltd T/A Shumba Bags is a female owned company based in Cape Town, South Africa. The brand is intentionally named after “Shumbakadzi”, a Lioness in the Shona Language of neighbouring Zimbabwe.

Our tag line is:

“Embroidery on leather is not Common, but neither are you!”

Our “uncommon” embroidered and appliqued leather bags celebrate the women of Africa with high-quality handcrafted leather bags that radiate exquisite design and unique details. Our collection of stylish bags promotes self-expression, positivity, and hope, and artistically depict different African women on the front of each bag.

The designs also feature the colours associated with Africa such as gold, black, brown, burgundy, and green throughout the collection. We've cultivated a brand that highlights the artistry of fashion but with a story to be told. We invite you to make Shumba part of your story.

These artistically crafted bags are fuelled by our passion for intentional design and turning style into identity. We welcome you to read each uniquely named bag’s story and find one that resonates with you. Each piece is curated to reveal dramatic detail and African nuances that translate into different journeys, unlocking something special for those who wear them.

Our bags are meant to be seamlessly incorporated into all wardrobes, and there’s one for you to enjoy. From the workday to the weekend brunch and everything in between, a Shumba Bag will be a worthy companion. 

We want our leather bags to be a part of your life's narrative and be a beautiful work of art hanging from your shoulders each day.
