So a few days ago I was THRILLED to find a HG bag for an amazing deal! Well it came today and... I don’t want to be negative but this bag is about the dirtiest a bag can be. I can see why it was so well priced. It’s either coated in grime or (hopefully not) pigment. I will post to the AT thread shortly. I think I’ll give it hand at restoring it, I just hope it’s not too far gone. I kind of want to but it in the washing machine...:whut:

I know that this has been discussed before but I'd love to hear discussion again concerning how people get city bags to stay on their shoulder(s). I love to arm carry mine but sometimes life gets in the way of bags and I must sling it on my shoulder. Plus I do love the look of it that way as well. I adore the city but have to admit that I carry it less than my day bags or even my Firsts, both of which stay put on the shoulder. I have resorted to wearing one of mine crossbody with an additional long strap.

Thoughts, people? Are there certain leathers/years that seem to work well as shoulder carry? Anyone get creative?

I use the longer strap like you. I NEED my everyday bags to go crossbody. I guess that's why I transitioned into Velos and Towns.

Hmmm, so it seems like this is the most sensible option. I will try that. I had thought about adding a Suede patch to the u details of the weight distributed but removing it seems a whole lot easier.

You can remove it with a bit of patience or simply slide it down the part of the strap that’s behind you when you carry your bag.
