Bonjour---

French cyclotouring dual bags/panniers, in a nice petite size for use either on the front or rear rack. Good storage capabilities for day randonneuring runs, or to supplement larger rear panniers for touring. Probably date from the '50s.

Cotton duck in a bluish-gray color with tan leather straps. The cotton has a bit of sun fading from use; the tan leather straps are robust and in excellent, nearly-new condition. Underside adjustable loop attachments, and the top straps are adjustable and detachable for fine tuning to your rack. Leather trim all around.

Dimensions: H: 7.25" x W: 9.75" x D: 3.5" side panels, but the bags bulge out to 6" when full.
