Product Description
I call this bag "Coney Island" Take one look inside and you'll know why. It's comfortable on the shoulder, completely machine wash and dryable on med/low heat, and super slouchy. A deep Navy blue with a pop of red make the Coney Island Hauling Ass Hobo a real eye stopper and "got to have it" bag. All the cargo pockets make it functional as well.
Bag measures 17 inches wide X 1 1/2 inches at the bottom X 10 inches tall. The zipper placket is 3 1/2 inches wide.
Everything about this Hauling Ass Bag screams Coney Island. The red and blue colors, right down to the vintage inspired scarf used to line it-depicting sunbathers in their old fashion bathing suits and Sailors in their uniforms.
My Coney Island bag is hand crafted with a pair of reclaimed denim cargo shorts. They are in preworn condition with out any stains or marks. I have deconstructed and completely reconstructed them the tropAcool way! They are Slightly faded. I've also used some other denim,so not all the denim is exactly the same color, but the colors are all conducive to the bag.
A 16 1/2" red YKK first qualiyy zipper secures your bag. Soft red suede was used to make the zipper stop and super soft red leather for the zipper pull.
An approx. 38 inch Adjustable navy blue shoulder strap - a reclaimed nylon belt. Silver tone hardware, with an added (removeable) silver tone slide. It will hold the end of the belt when you shorten the strap. You can remove it when you like. There is a little bit of wear on the buckle.
The front of the bag has two 5 1/2" square accordian cargo pockets with velcro flaps. On top of each is a very small slip pocket. I would consider them decorative due to their size. Behind one of the cargo pockets is a larger slip pocket. It's 7 1/2" square. I have added some velcro to secure the pocket's contents..
The back of the hobo bag has 2 zipper pockets.- It's constructed using 2 tones of denim and 2 first quality zippers. I also lined the pockets with addition denim. One pocket is 5" w X 8" Tall, the other is 4 1/2 W x 8 1/2" tall. The zippers zip up and down and have red leather zipper pulls.
The lining of the bag is a new vintage inspired cotton scarf. The scarf depicts a major party going on at the beach. You're going to want to go! I made a divder/pockets for the inside of the bag. It's higher on one side and slopes slightly down. It forms two slip pockets. they are lined with denim. They're pretty large pockets.
Included in the price is two accessory bags, a key chain, purse scarf, and a small hanky (to wipe the mustard from the corners of your mouth).
Large accessory bag - approx 11 1/2 at the widest point X 5 tall. Small handle, red leather zipper pull, lined with the matching scarf, and the outside is accented with the scarf as well.
small accessory bag - approx. 6" w X 7 1/4" tall at the talled point- This bag angles down to 5 3/4". Red zipper with gold tone zipper pull and lined with the scarf. I have also accented the outside of this bag with the scarf.
key chain, purse scarf, and hankie.
Bag measures 17 inches wide X 1 1/2 inches at the bottom X 10 inches tall. The zipper placket is 3 1/2 inches wide. This will allow the bag to carry lots of stuff without putting tension on the zipper. When your bag is not stuffed full the placket is made to drop down a little - slightly hiding the zipper.
I consider this bag to be Extra Large.
This is a quality one of a kind hand crafted item by me. Thanks for reading all the way down to here!!
