A predecessor of the famous Kelly bag, the Haut à Courroies (HAC) bag, which translates as “high belts”, first appeared in the late 1800’s and went on to inspire the design of the Birkin bag.Originally created for cavalry soldiers as a bag for storing boots and saddles, it’s quite similar to the Birkin but proportionally taller with slightly shorter handles featuring a roomier interior, an interior patch pocket, and a zippered compartment.Carried in the hand rather than in the crook of the arm, today it’s flaunted as a stylish unisex travel bag.
