So I got my first commissioned order; two large bags, one for a birthday, the other for Christmas. This is what I came up with; they are basically the same pattern as the black gator bag, but in a rich caramel brown.

    They are about 12″ deep, fully lined with 100% cotton fabric.    

The hardware is solid brass.

They have 4 inside pockets and 6 outside.                     

The outside pockets are a generous 6″ deep; great for stowing keys and sunglasses within easy reach.     The gator top flap closes with a heavy-duty magnetic closure.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  

These bags are generously sized, but smaller versions are also available. If interested, I can be contacted here or at tc.marceaux@yahoo.com for pricing and specs.

I’m working on a couple more shoulder sling style bags in gator and in leather/wool saddle blanket designs. More posts when I finish them.
