Sewed this prototype bag from a repurposed old suede vest. The main pocket dimensions are 6 inches by 4 inches by 1.5 inches to fit the strict bag requirements of Denver's Ball Arena. The front and back pieces have the original tiny pockets from the vest, with simple straps with hook and loop to hold items in. The inside is not lined, but the seams are bound. This bag was perfect for the Peter Gabriel concert last night. Phone, wallet, and keys fit comfortably inside and earplugs were easily accessible in the outer front pocket. The show was excellent, but extremely loud.
