Mine look just the slightest bit lighter in color overall from the buckles, and there are small spots that have worn to silver. I will try to take a pic when I get home, but I'm not sure if the camera will pic it up. Maybe yours are original just a bit more worn?

I’ve been loving all of the new Cassie colorways that are being released and have really been drawn to this style. There has been fun discussions of Cassie being an updated Court bag and inspired by the LV pochette metis (or vice versa who knows lol). Unfortunately there appears to be some glazing issues being reported for many of these bags, similar to the LV PM.
I guess my hunt for the Court bag has now officially started ha! After receiving my ramblers legacy and being so giddy over the quality of a 20 year old bag I think I’ll really enjoy a Court bag.

I think so too, looks like such a great bag and exactly the size and type of crossbody I love using on weekends.
Not all vintage bags are as soft and supple as the original Rambler's Legacy. Every court I've had my hands on is very nice but the leather isn't as nice as on my 1999 Rambler's Legacy. I think that is because it is a structured bag. Duffle sacs and stewardesses usually have softer leather.
Good to know! I think I’d like the Court to be a little stiffer since like you said it’s a structured style. I stumbled onto some old posts about Stewardess bags so I think I’ll start researching those and Patricia as well. Ever since I bought my Page 27 I’ve been into flap cross bodies, even though Page is like only a 1/3 of a flap lol
Try a Classic Shoulder Bag 9170 made in the 90s. My 90s one has a longer strap that can cross-body. The leather on this style is also super soft and supple.
I love the soft smooshy leather on the Rambler's Legacy! I think one of the reasons I gravitate to the classic shoulder bag is because of the smooshy leather.
Indeed you've a nice example of the second design for the Duffle Sac. The primary changes from the original release version were: the interior slip pocket was added, the buckle tabs were sewn on (versus riveted on), the vertical seams were moved from being in-line with the buckle tabs to locations centered between the buckle tabs, the lower seam changed from finished to bound, the shape of the zipper pull was changed, and the configuration of the binding along the upper edge was modified. The design you have was subsequently superseded by one where the buckle tabs were integrated into bag's body panels and the vertical seams reoriented back to aligned with them.
Hello everyone,
Hi there, any idea the name of this bag, color, and era? Thanks!

Can you elaborate on those three design changes of the duffle sac from 71 thru 77? I have noticed on some very old duffles they had a seam line right down the middle front of the bag.
Do you know the measurements?
Without knowing the measurements, I'd say it's a probably a Devon Bag #9908 from the early 1990s. The color could be Stone, Camel, or British Tan.
