Sac&Zip: a customizable, durable and unique bag

Imagined in 2012 by Papa Pique and Maman Coud, the Sac&Zip is a registered design that has revolutionized the way we carry our handbags. Designed to last, it lets you change your style without changing your bag.

The concept? A base, a removable flap, a matching shoulder strap and, for the finishing touch, a decorative clip. In just a few simple steps, you can create a bag that's uniquely yours.

It's much more than a trendy accessory: it's an eco-responsible bag, designed to grow with you, without having to throw away or replace the whole thing. Change your look, not your bag!

So how do you compose your Sac&Zip?

Step 1: Choose the base of your bag from our 3 bag formats

Le Sac&Zip starts by choosing the base, available in three formats to suit all needs. Most of our bases are made from cotton coated on the outside, a soft, water-repellent, waterproof material that's easy to clean. Perfect for everyday use!

Each base is designed to be practical and secure:

The Compagnon has an inside pocket and a small tab for attaching a lanyard.

The besaces grande and petite also feature a zipped pocket on the back to keep your papers safe from thieves, plus an inside pocket to organize your personal belongings.

Here are the three available formats:
  • The companion: The most compact and elongated, perfect for carrying the essentials: wallet, phone, glasses, earphones, make-up. With or without a shoulder strap, it can be transformed into a chic clutch or practical bag, as you wish.
  • The little bag : More rounded, it offers a large capacity and several compartments, including an external zipped pocket for your important documents, easily accessible.
  • The large bag: Ideal for work, this bag has a spacious rectangular format and integrated pockets. You can also add a PPMC fabric pocket for even more organization.

Step 2: Choose a flap from our collection prints or trendy materials

Once you've selected your base, it's time for the flap. Each bag format (Companion, Small Messenger or Large Messenger) has its own compatible flap, designed to zip on in the blink of an eye. In just a few seconds, change your style without changing your bag.

Most of our flaps are made from coated cotton: a soft, lightweight, water-resistant material that's easy to clean every day. But for those who like to follow trends, Papa Pique et Maman Coud also offers flaps in original, textured materials: corduroy, suede, glittering sequins or soft fleece.

So you can vary your style according to the season or occasion. Discover them all on our website or in our boutiques!

Step 3: Choose your shoulder strap or lanyard

Here's a new feature that makes the Sac&Zip even more customizable: the choice of shoulder strap. Depending on your base, there are several models to choose from, combining style and comfort.

For the Companion, opt for the narrow shoulder strap, the large strap or the small strap for a hand strap. These formats are perfectly suited to its compact size!
The Petite Besace is ideally paired with the wide or narrow shoulder strap, for a perfect balance of style and practicality.

As for the Grande Besace, it's often preferred with a wide or narrow shoulder strap, to guarantee optimum comfort, even when fully loaded.

It's up to you to choose the shoulder strap that suits you best, for a bag that's uniquely yours!

Step 4: Add your hair clip to personalize your bag!

The little detail that makes all the difference: the barrette, your personal and original touch. Each flap is equipped with a discreet tab, perfect for clipping on your favorite barrette.

You can choose from a wide range of barrettes, all available on our website or in our boutiques: bow tie, flower petals, star flower, braided barrette, mini butterfly or even the Miaou barrette.

The collections are constantly evolving, with a multitude of patterns and colors to give free rein to your creativity. Mix and match, and give your Sac&Zip a unique personality... or several, as you wish!

This step is optional, but it really does make all the difference for a 100% personalized bag.

What is the Customizable Bag & Zip?

The Sac&Zip is a PPMC innovation created in 2012 just for you. It's simple, practical, pretty... and above all eco-responsible. The idea? Integrate a zipper at the base of the bag to zip up a flap that's removable and interchangeable according to mood and season. Thanks to this zipper system, you can change the flap at will: it's as if you had several bags in one.

It all starts with the choice of bag: small, medium, large? Each bag base is compatible with its own flap format. Then it's up to you to create the best combinations! Thanks to its interchangeable flaps, Sac&Zip adapts to your desires, seasons and events. 
You can, for example, choose a glittery linen bag base and combine it with a tone-on-tone flap for a chic look for a ceremony. Then opt for a navy ivory striped flap for mid-season, a floral flap for summer or an eucalyptus corduroy flap for winter.

Like the concept? We've got news for you... The Sac&Zip has evolved this year!

The new Sac&Zip design, even more clever!

To offer you even greater personalization, we've redesigned our basic bags, especially the besaces. They are now available without a shoulder strap, to give free rein to your creativity. You can choose the shoulder strap you like best, or even opt for a strapless base for a more streamlined look.

We've added little tabs on either side of the bag to attach an interchangeable shoulder strap, thin or wide, to suit your taste. Match it to your favorite flap, play with patterns and colors, or opt for a plain, sober style - the Sac&Zip becomes your 100% personalized bag, following you all year round.

Our tips for a bag that truly reflects your image

It's not always easy to find the perfect bag, the one that follows you around every day and looks just like you. But with the PPMC Composable Bag, you have the freedom to create your own bag. Choose your base, try out different flaps, play with colors: here, hesitation is allowed! 
And that's not all: our collections evolve regularly, allowing you to renew your style or add new touches to your bag as the seasons change. 

But if we had to give you some advice, here it is: 

Dare to vary the flaps according to your desires 

Your bag can change style with a single zip, so make the most of it! Choose several flaps: a colorful one to brighten up your outfits, a plain one for more sober days, and an original pattern to stand out from the crowd.

Take your time when selecting your shoulder strap 

The choice of shoulder strap is important, as it must be both aesthetically pleasing and practical. For the companion bag, the large strap is the perfect choice because it's adjustable, allowing you to wear it both on the shoulder and across the body. For the large besace, the PPMC team recommends the wide shoulder strap, which will help distribute the weight more evenly over your shoulders, so it's much more comfortable for everyday use. 

Vary the style of your bag with the seasons 

At Papa pique et Maman Coud, we love to offer you seasonal collections. So for each season, you'll find flaps, shoulder straps and barrettes in different shades and patterns.
