It's like a stewardess without the extra pockets and a different kind of strap.View attachment 4070673

Nice. Less chance of spilling contents like with the Rambler it seems.

I just received a Park Tote 4129 this week. I can’t wait to dunk and condition before taking it out for a spin. Lightweight and big, but I hate this style strap. Not very sturdy, kinda floppy straps, if you know what I mean. View attachment 4070675

I have a duffle from 2001 that I love except that the strap is too floppy. If I could just replace the strap, the bag would be perfect.

Nice price and condition on a Light Tote.
NMA.
Brass Hangtag is not original or authenticated.

That is a nice looking bag. Now this listing will be roaming around my head all day!

I'm not looking for one, but if one ended up in my lap, I wouldn't mind. I'd rather have a Ranch bag but I don't need any more bags.

I agree. I don't think I would pass up any hard to find bag at the right price either. And I was not familiar with the Ranch until I bought one in a thrift store last year. The leather is amazing on mine. I have thought about buying another in a different color. But I am holding out for some unusual colors. They come up on ebay regularly on the cheaper side (compared to a Stewardess) because people listing them don't know the style.

Something old, something new - my convertible clutch rehabbed and fully decked out. The bag is about 30 years older than the strap, the tags and the charm. I did not have much appreciation for the old putty(?) color until I saw the strap on sale, and then I just had to get one of those bags. It’s so much more comfortable than using the original thin strap.

I love it! Definitely an improvement over the original strap.

May I ask where you found the strap and what it's called?

Thanks. I wish they’d make the same strap in black - gold hardware, no embellishments. I have quite a few older Coach bags that are digging into my shoulders when carried.

It was on sale at the online outlet. I think it’s called a novelty strap. They have more styles, but most of them have a hardware that doesn’t go with the brass on the vintage bags.

I haven't found the Ranch in any unusual colors, which is what I would want too. I've only seen black, mahogany and maybe British tan. I might like a BT. I definitely don't need any more black or mahogany bags.

I mean, I am holding out for other styles made in some of limited colors offered in some catalog pics I have seen from late '90s, early '00s. Like your Glacier? blue Lagacy Rambler. I know, HG bags. We have talked about how the Periwinkle didn't wear well, but I can dream right? I am actually checking out Coral/Melon Peyton drawstrings.

A lot of the periwinkle bags I see listed look terribly faded but my Soho belted pouch still looks great, so you might find one. I've always been intrigued by those Peyton drawstrings with the cute polka dot lining, but I've never gotten one. They seem kind of small.

I will dream my Periwinkle, Glacier and Mango dreams lol.
They made that Peyton in two sizes, it looks like. I would def get the larger.
