It is handmade from a combination of rescued leather and our genuine decommissioned British fire-hose. The lining is crafted from reclaimed military-grade parachute silk with an internal zipped pocket. Featuring a fully adjustable shoulder strap, the bag is unisex and is designed to be worn over the shoulder or across the body. What can you fit in there? Elvis & Kresse like to use this bag when they are popping out or going on a quick trip around the city, it fits: a passport, foreign currency, book, smart phone, keys and an Elvis & Kresse wallet or purse.We are excited to be able to offer so many variations of the Saddle Bag.
