Vintage US Navy Wool "One of a Kind" Waxed Canvas Tote Bag

Own a piece of history with a bag from our U.S. Navy Collection. This one-of-a-kind tote is crafted using wool from an authentic U.S. Navy service blanket. The blanket was passed on to me by the family of a service member who was said to have served overseas during WWII, though I do not have official verification of that history.

This particular bag features a navy blue waxed canvas body, designed for both durability and timeless style. It includes two waxed canvas pockets on the back and two wool pockets on the front, combining function with heritage character. The bottom is reinforced with an extra layer of waxed canvas for added strength.

Inside, you’ll find a secure metal zipper pocket—perfect for keeping your personal items safe.
