Utility Bag "Virgil Hilts"

[Thomas Koehle]

Another find when reorganising my mancave:

"Virgil Hilts" wannabe helmet bag manufactured my "NON STOCK" in China

I almost forgot i own it - was available for about 3 months only in 2014 in China and was discontinued then

It dangles from a hook in my closet since then - was never used

Besides being "Phantasie" it is - concerning Quality - on the same Level with the much more expensive bags i saw from TRMcCoy

Leather is soft, lining appears to be Cotton, Hardware of shoulderstrap is nicely done also

anyone else got one of These?

I wish I had one. Really Cool and looks well-made.

BD and Bronson / Non-Stock come up with some really nice bags these days....love your mailman bag as well!

Just checked on TaoBao and they Are available again just without the “Hilts” details

Do I understand correctly that this is a fantasy and there were no such bags in reality?
I have never seen them.

I wonder if five star could make decent version

I could make one.
I’d have to hand stitch though and I can tell you it would be more than 100 bones.

The ones from Bronson are good enough for 90 if I ever decided to get one as it’ll only get occasional use

Nice bag but i don’t get all this Hiltz stuff if it wasn’t in the movie.... bit like all the Barbour McQueen range , almost none of which was worn by McQueen in or iut of a movie.......
