Blue Corduroy Moonbag
With winter on its way it’s time for all the soft, warm textures to come out, and these corduroy bags will hit the spot. Corduroy is super trendy at the moment with so many beautiful textures and colours making an appearance. These bags are available in a variety of colours from sensible black, blue and natural colours to fun bright orange, green and lilac, with beautiful cotton linings in florals and other prints. My favourite part of making these bags is matching the linings to the gorgeous corduroy fabrics!
The main compartment will fit your phone, a small purse or wallet, your keys and a few other bits and bobs. The front pocket fits smaller phones or a card wallet and cash. The absolute best part is that you get to keep all these necessaries close to your body, secure and safe with your hands free. No more handbag falling over your shoulder when you reach down to get something off a shelf or unpack your shopping trolley. When it comes to travelling, there is no better bag to keep your passport and other essentials close through airports and train stations. It is roomy enough to hold what you need but will also fit under a warm jacket.
If you are looking for a gift for a student or young adult in your life you may have found it! Not only are these bags trendy but they are great for nights out and long days on campus.
All moonbags are handmade by me in my home studio in Cape Town. I sew the last seam closed by hand so that your bag is fully enclosed with no exposed stitching. The inside has no plastic binding or gaps.
The straps are sturdy webbing attached with metal swivel clasps. The bag can also be worn with any other bag strap you might already own. The straps are cut long so that there is plenty of room to wear your bag across your body. Minimum circumference of bag and strap together is 96cm, maximum 136cm. If you would prefer a longer or shorter strap, please email me when you order and if possible I will accommodate you for no extra charge.
Bags can get a little tired and dusty after a lot of use, so these moonbags can be washed by hand in warm water with a small amount of ordinary washing detergent and air dried to get them looking good as new.
Please feel free to contact me about custom fabric choices. I make these bags all the time so am happy to accommodate requests for different linings or straps.
