Default If Indiana Jones bought a bag at Barneys...
That’s the bag I’m looking for. Something modest in size, with a longish shoulder strap, pocket-y and made of supple, fabulous to-die-for (bronze or cognac or weathered brown) leather. I’ve seen some by Campomaggi that come pretty close. Anybody have any other designer suggestions? TIA!

So nice of you to suggest. It's nice, but not smooshy enough and too resonant of a briefcase. The hunt continues. Thanks!

How about the Hayden-Harnett Conrad? The strap is adjustable from short to crossbody.

This fits perfectly with the Indiana Jones style, perfect choice in my books!

I've always thought that the YSL Besace flap messenger bag had that look.

Man, that YSL is really nice. But $1,800? Not in this incarnation. Sigh.

laurahead108, I am glad I found this thread. I am looking for a similar bag -- cognac, nice new or weathered, with a strap for crossbody wear as well. :) Thanks and I'll be watching this thread too lol :)

I think the perfect one would be the Proenza Schouler PS1 large bag
http://www.kirnazabete.com/accessori...der-bag-3.html
There is also a beautiful weathered brown leather version.
This bag is functional and definitely chic.
