Ralph Lauren Collection Vintage Navajo Hobo Bag

Ralph Lauren Collection Vintage Blanket Hobo Bag. This bag is in good used condition, but there is some strap separation as photographed. The overall wear and distressed look appears to be intentional and part of that is the fact that they used vintage materials to construct this bag . The strap though appears to be from use. Still fully functional and could easily either be repaired by a cobbler or worn as is. This bag is so perfectly broken in to me. There are additional pictures that I have added in a “not for sale” listing in my poshmark closet, if you search for “Ralph Lauren”. In doing some research, this was a runway bag and highly collectible. Here is some great info. I found out about this bag……”I remember the Ralph Lauren Collection Vintage Blanket Hobo Bag strutting down the runway for Spring 2011 and found it interesting. Upon seeing the bag hit NAP, the price also caught my attention – a whopping $2,500. Why is the price so high you ask? That is the same thing I asked myself and it seems that Ralph Lauren would like to charge that because these bags are one-of-a-kind and crafted from antique fabrics, meaning every single one is totally unique. The materials used are vintage Navajo wool blankets and leather chaps and the bag is hand-loomed. Other decorations include luggage tags, metal studs, and glass beads. I actually really like the authentic Americana appeal the bag offers, but I can’t imagine spending $2,500 for a bag that is made of old blankets”
