Hello Hyacinth :smile1:

Would you help me ID this bag, please? It seems to be a small version of The Original Flap.

It is 7.5" x 5.5" x 4" and has one interior slip pocket, no zipper.

I found this catalogue photo that you posted on one of the threads awhile back. It looks exactly like this, but without the turnlock, and it seems to be ever so slightly smaller. So...is it simply a "Small Shoulder Bag" ? Thank you, thank you.

I was hoping someone could ID this bag and give me any information possible.


Thanks :)


Cait-o

If you own the bag, please post clear readable pictures of the creed patch and serial number from inside the bag.

There are a few things that make me think it's counterfeit - the Carriage emblem is pretty crooked, the strap clips are NOT the kind Coach uses and that clip design is only found on fakes, and the price tag attachment isn't right either. I'd like to see photos of those areas too, please, along with both sides of the price tag and the strip of plastic that's it's hanging from. It's hard to see because of the shine, but the C pattern isn't centered either. In fact none of the hardware looks right and neither does the strap.

Where did you find that bag?
I agree with Hyacinth. The bag doesn't look good.

We've never found a name or number for that style as far as I can remember. I don't know if it's just a Small Shoulder Bag with a turnlock or if it had a different name and number. Maybe someone else knows?

I hope I'm posting this in the right place, does anyone know if this bag ever came out? It was in the fall 2013 preview but I never saw it hit stores.

It's always a good idea to try the Search feature. There may be more information there on that particular version of the Flight Bag. I don't think yours is quite old enough to be Cashin-era though since it has what looks like a 1980s creed stamp and serial number.

I checked out the links. On sacs manufique page on flight bags, mine is identical to the picture of the flight bag from the 60's-70's era. Thank you for your help!! :-)

I have exactly the same strapless Flight Bag as yours. As Hyacinth said, the creed and serial number indicate that it is from the late 1970's - 1980's. The Flight Bags from the 1960's -70's had removable handle straps with buckles. Ours does not.
