"Tropic Thunder" Hauling Ass Camo Duffle Purse with 5 exterior pockets. At first glance this purse looks like a traditional camouflaged print, but it's not! The print is actually made with a hibiscus flower and palm trees print. This camouflaged purse is part of my Peace Keeper series.

The bag is made with 100% cotton reclaimed cargo shorts in an army green, a dress remnant, a reclaimed belt, linen from a skirt, and a cotton/linen blend on the satchel handles that was once a skirt. The leather is first quality scrap from the garment industry, and the zipper from a factory that closed. New thread is always used.

A one of a kind, made by me. Additional photos are always available, just ask if you need them.

bag measures approx. 15" w X 8 1/2" tall X 6" on the side X 2" across the bottom and top. It's a little bigger as the bag does have some gathered areas here and there.

The back of the bag has a zipper padded pocket that measures pretty much the entire back of the bag - 13 X 8 with a 7 1/2" zipper.

34 inch adjustable shoulder strap made with a reclaimed belt. The belt and the slide has some rust on it where the slide sat for a while. It's minimal, please see the photos. On the shoulder strap I have attached leather and created a sunglass holder. The arm of your glasses slides down and is held in place. It's a snug fit. A dog clasp on one end. 27 inches on the shortest length.

approx. 15" satchel handles made with satin rope covered with a sage green cotton/linen blend - comfortable in hand.

Each end of the bag has a padded slip pocket approx. 4 X 5 (slightly larger)

two 5" square accordion cargo pockets on the front that button close.

Glove leather on the bottom

purple zipper

beautiful bold tropical print on the inside.

You'll love this bag! machine wash to keep it clean. Please don't soak your bag, never use bleach, never wash in hot water, NOT machine dry-able. Washing this soft leather can give it a stiff feel. It will soften up with use.

sunglasses are not included, but the peace sign is!

Hauling Ass Bags are designed to carry all your stuff! Each is a one of a kind tote, made from reclaimed and reconstructed blue jeans and shorts. Lots of pockets, fully lined, each with their own matching accessory item. All my supporting seams and handles are reinforced.

There is a lot of man hours involved in reclaiming fibers. They must be laundered/sanitized first. Eco friendly cleansing agents are always used. I use a he Front loading washing machine. Then they are deconstructed and reconstructed into a one of a kind item. I hope you enjoy them.
