This lovely little messenger bag is protected by an octopus that has taken up residence on the strap.

This bag is 12″ wide, 11″ tall, and 2″ deep. It features blue and white wave-printed Obi fabric as the outer, and indigo cotton from japan as the lining, which was dyed using traditional shibori methods. The strap is real leather, and has been riveted in place for security. The octopus on the strap is actually a buckle, and allows for adjustability of the strap length. The strap can go from 42″ all the way to 61″. It has 1 main pocket that closes with a zipper, and 1 slip pocket on the front of the bag, both of which are hidden by the flap. The flap does not snap closed, but if you would like, small snaps can be sewn on before shipping, please just ask.
