4843 swing wallet from late 1993 - 1994. There is no indication that water buffalo was used. There was a later similar style, #4873, that had a removable strap.

Thanks you Wateve! I remember these but you don't see them much and they are perfect for all the places you cant bring bags into any more. Why do folks think Coach used water buffalo? Was there a Coach line that did? What am I missing (that I might like :hrmm:?
Than you again!

Water buffalo was used on accessories such as belts, wallets and card cases.

It was also used on some recent (2001) bags:

It looks like a light camel in this picture.
Thank you! Can you help me figure out what color this post pouch was originally? The bag looks gray-olive-brown. I'm confused. The catalog pic does not say it came in gray/flannel. Unless there's another pic. I found two catalog pics and neither day any thing close to gray. I thought Forest green was pretty obvious green. I used to have a green post pouch I sold long time ago. I no longer have a pic of it. IMG_20190420_171558789.jpgIMG_20190420_171622162.jpgIMG_20190420_171657828_BURST000_COVER_TOP.jpg

That's hard to tell! I think it would be easier if you washed it first. Bottle green was pretty dark, not as obvious as forest. I see both in styles from 1993. It could be mahogany.
