"The Original" Leather Postal Messenger, Handbag of the Day

Although cutting edge style is always fun and plays an important role in fashion, there are some designs that just can't be improved upon. The original leather postal messenger bag is one of them, and now thanks to JCrew you can have one for yourself. Recreated in true-to-detail oil-tanned leather this bag is styled to be historically correct and match what U.S. postal workers carried from 1868 to the 1970s (when they switched over to blue nylon bags). Hand-oiled, hand-stained, hand-riveted, and sewn in the techniques of old, this bag will not only last a lifetime but it will get better and better as the years go by. $795
