The New Yorker Soho

The New Yorker Soho – The Original KOORELOO Icon

Where the KOORELOO story began.

The New Yorker Soho is handcrafted from KOORELOO’s signature woven leather “kourelou” — the authentic Greek rug-inspired weave that gave the brand its name. Carefully handcrafted in Athens, Greece, this iconic shoulder bag blends artisanal heritage with contemporary luxury, celebrating traditional craftsmanship through a distinctly modern silhouette.

Finished with six signature gold-tone flouria coins, inspired by traditional Greek coin ornaments, the design carries a deeper symbolism. The number six was deliberately chosen to represent harmony, love and friendship — values woven into the identity of KOORELOO. Together with the hand-knotted black tassels and chain strap, these distinctive details transform Greek heritage into a contemporary luxury statement.

Inside, the embroidered Goddess Athena lining reflects the brand’s Greek roots and timeless identity, making this piece one of the most recognizable and collectible designs in the KOORELOO collection.

All Kooreloo creations are exclusively handmade with love and passion using traditional and delicate materials which require sensible care.

To maintain the original quality of your item, we recommend the following:                                 

- Store your goods in the Dust Bag provided to keep it dust-free and protected when it is not being used.

- Leather is a unique, natural and porous material. Avoid plastic bags or any other nonporous cases for extended periods of storage.

- Avoid long-term exposure to heat, humidity and sunlight.

- Do not submerge your bag into water and avoid direct contact with hard chemicals as this might stiffen your leather, fabric or fabric/leather item.

- Do not wash your item in a washing machine.

- Due to the nature of the material, only Specialist Dry Cleaning is suggested for leather, fabric/leather, suede/leather, sheepskin and fabric (wool, cotton, etc.) bags. Professional cleaning services are highly recommended to remove any stains or dirt.

- Keep the bag away from any detergents and cleaners as well as any liquids and oily products that could cause stains and damage.

- Do not overload your bag with very heavy or pointy items.

- The woven fabric edges of your bag are delicate and should be treated with care. Yarns, fibers and threads may fray with use. Please do not worry. This is normal and only adds to the unique beauty of the traditional fabric bag you have purchased. Under no circumstances do frayed edges result in your bag coming apart. If you do not like fibers sticking out from the edges, you can remove them by gently snipping them. We always suggest a brief communication with us at info@kooreloo.com to guide you through before proceeding.
