Four Shades of Purple Hemp

A request from a customer for a different color interior set me out on a quest to find a gray canvas for my purple hemp messenger bag.  The goal was not only to find a gray canvas but one as strong as the 10oz canvas I have used in the past.  After searching through several bolts of gray fabric I finally settled on a heavy weight 9oz canvas in a medium gray.

My four shades of my Purple Hemp Messenger Bags come in sizes to fit a 15 inch laptop or a 17 inch laptop. Adjustable straps, zippered and slip interior pockets and swivel hook hardware just to name a few of its features.

Messenger Bags for Girls

A midsized messenger bag, perfect for student that makes a great versatile bag with ample interior space to carry books, documents and a small laptop.

I constructed the student messenger bag with heavy brown cotton canvas and a coordinating lining using a print by Denyse Schmidt, "Cotton Duck County Fair Leaves Porch Blue." I also use this pretty print to cover the flap of this messenger bag. This bag has the classic look of a messenger bag, but its medium size makes it great to use as an everyday bag and it's still large enough to hold your valuables and books.

The interior contains a zipper pocket and a split pocket to hold your all your stuff such as keys, cell phone and I-Pod.

The adjustable handle is accented with an antique brass rectangle ring and slider, while the flap is finished with a swivel hook and ring (also in antique brass)to keep your items secure. The color palette consists of Browns, Ivory and Teal making a this a great bag for both men and women.
