Awesome Thanks! Here's another with the same zipper. No serial. Approximately 10w x 11t x 5d Navy I have a burnt orange Courier pouch like it with different zipper and a serial number.

Comments: More pictures are attached. Creed patch has an "X" in the upper right corner.

I took some more pictures over here: https://www.facebook.com/srwaller/posts/10100256678880770

The creed patch has been worn down, so I actually took some white matte contour powder from my makeup stash and brushed some on to see if I could see the lettering better. It helped a LOT, and it wipes off easy.

That's a Courier Pouch, #8920. The style goes way back to at least the mid-70s so this one was probably made some time between mid to late '70s and early 1980s.

Yep, we've recommended the makeup trick here before. Light-colored pearlized powder eyeshadow works well too.

Style 9406 was called a Large Slim Shoulder Bag and the X meant it was sold as a Final Sale to a discounter like TJ Maxx or Marshall's.

Nice, thank you! Did counterfeiters ever use an X on the creed tag? I don't see where it would be good for them, but then again, there doesn't seem to be too much logic going on with manufacturing fakes.

So far I've never seen them copy the X, but that doesn't mean they won't. It's not nearly as widely known as the outlet bullseye though so maybe they just don't bother. Even fake outlet marks are pretty rare, but they've probably been used on some of the AAA fakes coming through the Philippines.
