They're making me new shorter ones, they asked me how long I wanted them and I said 9 inches would be great. I had already done a little measuring and figured out that for my taste this would be the perfect length. If you want to order them call it in to Cory since there isn't a way to do so via the website. I can't wait! I love everything about the bag except the tassels are just too long for my taste, I also find that they get in way when I go to set the bag down.
Zombie Girl, it's hard to say, I'm sure they would look great with the new hardware but the new hardware also has the zipper pulls and I don't know how you'd attach them? On my zippers the tassels are looped through large rings.
