Antique 1893’ Swiss Cavalry Saddle Bags

Antique 1893′ Swiss army saddle bags

These rugged saddle bags were issued by the Swiss cavalry in the late 19th century. They still show the original leather stamp with the year 1893.
They’re a fine example of the craftmanship the Swiss got famout for and are made of very sturdy saddle leather that will last forever.

They used to be worn on each side of a saddle, now they can still be used while riding a horse, but they would also be the perfect addition to any classic motorcycle!

After more than a century the bags are in worn condition and show signs of use. Over the years they acquired a nice patina which only adds more charm to them. In some places the leather shows some cracks but hasn’t ripped.
Eventhough they’re about a 100 years old they’re still very strong and useable; they stood the test of being used for years and will last just as long!
