Hello everyone. Looking for an ID on this bag. 7 x 7.5 x 3 / 18 inch strap.

Looks like the Swinger to me.

It looks like a swinger from the Lightweights collection but those measurements don't seem to match either size. The larger one has a strap like the one shown, but if it is the small one, the strap could have been swapped out. It was made around 1989-1992.

So they actually posted different measurements in various places. They do have 12 inches listed elsewhere and I confused myself with the "strap drop" measurment. I believe the 4040 is the correct bag. Thank you!
 
Hi guys, I have this Coach dreamer crossbody, and I was wondering why the interior liner is different than the full leather interior I'm seeing displayed on the Coach sites...hoping it's not a fake?

Please also include a better and more readable photo of the creed patch if possible, we need to be able to read the words as well as the numbers, and your's looks blurry. I don't know if that's because of the camera or the patch stamp itself.

I recently picked up a light-colored Sonoma Pocket Shopper 4920 that was made in 1996 (see link below) and it was authenticated by @whateve (thanks!). She also kindly posted this page of hangtags from the 1996 Spring Catalog that shows "Wheat" as a Sonoma color and so that seemed the likely color for my bag.


But later I came across this 1997 ad for the Sonoma Pocket Shopper that had been previously posted by @Hyacinth and it lists "Camel" as one of the available colors, so now I'm wondering if my bag is wheat or camel?

It's not a big deal, I like the bag either way, but I have seen many different colors listed for this bag on online sites, so I am curious and I would appreciate your insights, thanks!

Sonomas got new colors at least once a year. If yours was made in 1996 it's probably Wheat. I have one in the same color and that's what mine is.
 
Thanks so much! This is a nice bag, do you still use your bag?

It's in a storage box in my "purse room", the strap is just too short for me to wear crossbody. I'll sometimes use it to schlep small items to and from the garage. Wheat is a hard color to keep clean and I never could get all the original grunge off, so it didn't matter if I added more. It holds glass cleaner and sponges and scrubbies pretty well and is easier to carry than a bucket. :biggrin:

Thanks! I'm short and the crossbody strap is perfect for me!
