Question about Trophy

[DiscoLemonade]

hmmm just a thought... since it has those metal rings on the side...couldn't you add a crossbody strap to it? any simple black strap would probably match... do you think it would be comfortable to wear it this way??

I think the Trophy is too wide to lend itself to cross-body wear. Seems like you'd be constantly bumping into stuff with it.

I'm still waiting on my moss Louvre and black origami...

HH did have a Moss Havana but the Louvre is Olive. Lulu compares the two here:

Yeah, crossbody sounds majorly bizzaro for the Trophy...maybe I've gotta see it to believe it

Thanks for the clarification! The description in the listing said Olive, but I read it described somewhere else as Moss. Don't really care. Just want it.

lol, I'll put my Ibiza crossbody strap on it when I get it and take pics (it's chocolate brown though, not black so it'll look akward but at least we can get the gist!)

I have asked Gingey to see if HH will make straps like on the trophy satchel available for sale separately because I think they will be fine on the trophy bag. Those aren't crossbody, but they would enable you to wear it as a long shoulder bag.

 

[paelaf]

^^ That would be awesome if they would sell them separately. I'm really curious how the strap will work/feel on the shoulder.

 

[jennirane]

Yeah... me too. I keep looking at it wondering if it'll be soft and squishy or hard and round. But I don't think a cross-body would work on the Trophy... the shoulder strap is better.

 

[paelaf]

yeah--it looks really uncomfortable, but they would make something unusable, right?

 

[jennirane]

I'm hoping it's like a loose lanyard (like ANY stoopid lanyard I ever made in Brownies).

Heh now, I loved making lanyards. Although, this strap reminds me more of the long chords we made in Brownies by nailing 6 (?) nails into the end of a wood spool and looping thread around and through to weave a chord of a length in proportion to the time we were willing to work at it. Mine was always short - it was thos d---n s'mores that distracted me.

I knit and there is a specific technique called "I-cord" that can be used to make handles for bags or even edgings for blankets. Very easy to do and good tv knitting. Actually i-cord is short for "idiot cord".

At work they used to call me "Cliff Clavin" after the fellow on Cheers because I have a propensity to come up with stupid useless facts.

 

[eagletmom]

Yes, it's 8". The Corc is WAY bigger, Joy. Because it's deeper and boxy. The Trohpy is slender side-on (so it's wide when you look at it face-on but from the side it's not that big. I've got side-by side pics somewhere... hang on.

Bummer I really need a 9 inch drop, The trophy looks so nice next to the KP Corc in your PIC's

Maybe I should just get the trophy to keep my new KP Corc company

This is not helping me resist the trophy.
