Ordered myself a Duffle Shoulder bag in dark denim online and received it today. Unboxing it was exciting, I’ve only ever bought pre-loved bags or outlet bags so I’ve never gotten to experience unwrapping a brand new bag before. It’s a beautiful bag, I loaded it up right away and have been carrying it around the house. I wish the strap was a little longer for cross body wear but it works excellent for a shoulder strap. (I have a long torso though and long straps are rarely ever long enough for me). I really like the suede lining and the little details throughout the bag. Took a couple pictures, thought I’d share in case anyone wants to see what this one looks like. There’s not a lot of pictures of these duffles on the forum, I have been obsessing over this bag for almost a year and it finally went on sale.

Hi there
We can't see the photos because they are private.

Congratulations! Love this bag - in fact, carrying mine today. Such a nice break from my heavy Rogues.
I've been thinking about the steel blue for weeks - after the comfort of this one, time to go for it!
I wonder if one of the wide straps would make it longer to carry crossbody?
Enjoy your new bag!

Great bag! I've not paid much attention to this bag before, but your photos make it look more interesting.

Thank you! I don’t think it’s a very popular bag in the 1941 collection and from my research in this forum, it appears most people who bought it ended up returning it because of the shape. It caught my eye though back when it was first on the Coach site although their photos don’t really do it justice.

Thank you! I’m enjoying it so far.

I looked at some of the new straps thinking the same thing. Unfortunately, none of them seem to have brass hardware, which is funny to me because this is my first time not having silver hardware and I didn’t think finding gold toned clips would be an issue since that seems to be the trend lately. I’ve used rings before to extend my straps, I’ll have to see if there are brass versions. Or maybe Coach will come out with a brass hardware tea rose statement strap, I’d probably have to get that.

I like the look of the steel blue as well, I was worried about color transfer from my dark jeans though. It looks like a beautiful color, hard to tell how light it really is though.

Congrats on your new bag! :biggrin: My black link duffle is one of my favorite bags! I wish I bought the denim one as well. It is a great bag.

Thank you! I had a hard time not buying the black link one, but the denim is the one that spoke to me and I already have a mostly black Kelsey with contrast trim (white and brown) and a berry Alexandra that was my first ever Coach bag (used) so I thought the denim would be a nice addition and different enough from the other bags I have.
