Hello, absolutely beautiful bag. I was wondering the dimensions and if the rings on the shoulder strap feel heavy or dig in because of the interlaced rings. I was going to get this bag in the smaller flap walnut, but that was on my mind. Thanks!!!
Here are the dimensions for the bag: 16"H x 19"W x 3"D, each pocket measures 8.5"H x 7.5"W x 1"D and the shoulder strap is 17"L x 2"W, with two adjustment holes.
The hangtag measures 3.5"H x 1.375"W, with a large ballchain that is the size of the ballchain on the new bracelet.
The rear patch pocket measures 10"W x 6.25H. The pocket and the back of the bag have a center seam. The top opening has a magnetic closing. A slightly different shade of brown leather lacing goes around the pockets and the top of the bag, on the front only. The retro COACH Horse & Buggy logo is embossed on the front and on the huge hangtag. It's style 11447 @ $748.
This is a slim duffle, but a wallet, wristlet & change purse(all COACH of course!) can sit in front of each other w/o causing it to bulge. It can handle more, but I don't carry too much stuff in any of my bags.
The strap is comfortable even with the lacing & rings because the lacing goes over and under, so it actually adds comfort to the rings. IMO, if the rings didn't have the lacing, I think then it might be uncomfortable. Also, it's one 2" wide strap, so for me it's stays on the shoulder better than double straps.
It's a beautiful bag made of burnished leather. I think the Bleeker Collection will be popular with it's fresh designs!
Thank you so much for the great decription. It is a gorgeous bag but probably too big for me. I have to watch the weight of my bags...back thing..But it is stunning. I will keep that in mind that the strap is comfy when considering the smaller walnut in that color. I had gotten the flap in British tan leather and that bag is very quare, not too much detail , except the stap is very heavy and concentrated in one spot on the buckle that hits the front of my chest and annoys me. The rest of the strap is fine and braided. I will have to compare the two when they come out and maybe get the walnut instead with a duffle in tan...Thank!! Enjoy her!!!
Oh! A Bleeker piece I actually like! I love the slouchy on it and the front pockets, LOVE EM! What a great purse!
I'm not sure if this style will be in INK, but that is one of the Bleeker colors so it's worth asking COACH C/S.
love the elisa...i was looking at that one, but it doesn't come in the color i want, but i like yours!!
LOVE the buggy!I love the embossed buggy logo, too. I initially saw it in photos of the Bleeker Collection, and I held my opinion until I saw it in person. It's so retro, and very subtle IMO.
BTW, in the pic where I have the Bleeker & regular hangtags, that ring allows you to attach the clip charms & keyfobs. It's the perfect size, since the clips don't fit over the larger rings!
Thanks for your comments!

I checked at the store tonight and this is a special order bag. This is the only color it is available in. I would love to see it IRL!
Thanks, some ladies have questioned if this style was available in other colors, but I didn't know.
If you think that you might like it, order it to see it in person because it might not be distributed to all stores when it's released. You can return or exchange it if you're not happy, instead of missing it completely. If you like this silhouette, it might be worth considering! Good Luck!
