Shoulder Bag Ideas

Other small shoulder bags that I use:

  • landscape design
  • 6.75 in wide
  • 4.75 in high
  • 2.50 in deep
  • 3-piece construction:
    • small front rectangle
    • u-shaped piece for sides and bottom
    • larger rectangle that covers the back and the fold-over flap that stretches to the bottom of the front
  • magnetic button flap snaps to bottom front.

• green canvas medic bag purchased at Army-Navy Surplus store
  • landscape design
  • 12.5 in wide
  • 10.50 in high
  • 3.25 in deep
  • 3-piece construction
    • front, bottom, back, and fold-over flap is one piece.
    • left side
    • right side
  • 4th and 5th pieces would be the strap, which is 1.50 in wide and attached via an adjustable buckle-type metal piece.
  • the front flap folds over 50% down the front.
  • front flap fastens to front with two leather buckles.

• green canvas ammo bag purchased online from an Army-Navy Surplus type of store
  • landscape design
  • 10.00 in wide
  • 7.75 in high
  • 4.00 in deep
  • 3-piece construction
    • front
    • sides - u-shaped
    • back and fold-over front flap
  • 4th piece would be strap that is adjustable with a metal, buckle-type of device. but it appears to be only one-piece strap instead of 2-piece like with the medic bag.
  • strap is 1.50 in wide.
  • front flap folds over about 50% down the front and fastens via a buckle.
  • two pockets on the front.

To hold a basic field guide or paperback book, the shoulder bag needs to be at least 8 to 9 inches wide in landscape design.

Needs to be about 10 inches wide to hold the larger version of the iPad.
