Sling bag / Crossbody bag - Horween leather (prototype)

Carry just your essentials in style with this classic crossbody bag, designed for those times your only want to carry the basics. One main pouch with a snap closure at the top for the larger items, and open pocket for those fast-grab items like your phone to catch those great concert moments, and a secure zippered pouch for the critical items like your ID, cards, or cash. Crafted from premium Horween Rio Montblanc leather in medium natural/golden color, this bag will go with just about every outfit. Inside, everything is lined with a luscious tab calfskin.  The adjustable crossbody strap is in a cotton webbing, to help keep this light and airy on those hot days. Great for hands-free wear throughout your day, whether that involves a concert festival, travel, hiking, or just a day in the park. 

Dimensions: approximately 8" x 5 "

Reason this is a bargain: This is a prototype of a pattern designed by us, inspired by a bag I saw out in the wild one day.  There are a few flaws with this one, so it's highly discounted!  :-(  The stitching is a little uneven in spots (my machine was giving me fits that day...it happens) and it's especially noticeable at the top D-ring holder, but luckily the worst parts are only on the inside and not visible on the outside.  Also, the lining on the middle pocket didn't glue very well to the leather, so it separates slightly, but it's also stitched down so it won't come apart fully.  Overall, I just wasn't happy with lining this leather - it's makes for a slightly stiff bag, which I know will soften over time, but still...when you're not happy with something, it's just hard to get past that.  I plan on making more of these designs, with some adjustments from these "learning moments" because I think there's value to the functional design here.
