"Being a complete Old Bag novice I recently purchased an Ellie Junior bag for a friend's teenage daughter. What makes it all the more special is when I read you give a percentage of the bag cost to an adoption charity.  I adopted my daughter Sophie 11 years ago and its fantastic to find a company doing such wonderful work such as your beautiful bags and accessories but reading that you still find time to support a brilliant charity too.  Many thanks once again for your thoughtfullness and creativity".

"In May this year I celebrated by 60th Birthday. I had been looking in our local gift shop at a bag called The Old Bag. My husband without my knowing was saving for the Old Bag and I had no idea until he took me to the shop and bought it for me. Whilst on holiday I can't tell you how many people stopped and asked me where did I get my Old Bag from. Yesterday, my husband bought me another Old Bag and using it the same day I was asked can you tell me please where you got your bag from. I felt I should share this experience with you and say thank you for The Old Bag Company".
