“Roaring 40s Gear Bag” Vintage Tan Bark Sail
“Roaring 40s Gear Bag” Vintage Tan Bark Sail
For the lover of all things vintage. These unique duffle bags are made from tan bark sail from the “Utiekah III”, a historic Huon Pine ketch built in Cygnet, Tasmania in 1923. The sails aren’t quite that old but have nevertheless seen their fair share of adventure.
She has sailed the high seas from Tassie to SE Asia, everywhere in between and back again. The patina created over years at sea gives these bags their uniquely aged style and, whilst not being up to the task of sailing anymore, the canvas is still highly durable with a long life still left in it.
This fabulous sail bag has a tobacco brown patina and features marine grade hardware, double stitching , hand stencilling and unique original patching/stitching from its’ days on the high seas.
It has a zipper pocket on one round end an open pocket on the other and three open pockets down each long side of the bag.
(59cm long x 27cm dia. round ends)
