The Dooney & Bourke Patched Plaid Medium Duffle Bag is a true Dooney classic.  It is a patchwork plaid pattern full of great colors for the fall and winter season.  The trim is a chocolate leather.  This pattern is available in all Dooney styles, Barrel, Slouch, East West, Wristlet, etc.

This bag is 100% cotton with a poly-vinyl coating making it durable and easy to clean. 

Like all Dooney bags, the inside is heavily lined and has great accessory pockets.  The medium duffle is actually quite large and can even fit my planner, wallet, checkbook, makeup bag and all my other little odds and ends, with plenty of room to spare.

I purchased this bag last spring knowing it would be great for the fall.  I have waited patiently to use it and now that I am, I really love it.  It goes great with anything.

Dooney & Bourke produces strong, durable, good looking handbags; well worth the price paid.

Unfortunately, Dooney has recently discontinued this pattern.  Dooney discontinues patterns very quickly.  It will still be available while the supply lasts.  I hate that!

Dooney turns their patterns over quickly. :(

I love my Dooney & Burke but it's a spring style. I love the pattern for yours. How sad that they discontinued the print. My sister has a TH purse with a pattern similar to yours.

It is a nice bag. I never pay top dollar for anything! I got this at their outlet store and paid $80.00 for it...more than 1/2 off. ebags doesn't sell this brand, but I do use them alot....I have alot of points accumulated!:)

What a colorful bag! A bit pricey for me right now but I can see how it could be a good deal for someone who can swing it and really loves it. Oh, how about ebags.com ? Maybe it could also be there. Nice review.

If you go to the Dooney site click "specials" on top, then click on "30% Off" and then click "Patched Plaid Specials" you will find it there. Happy Shopping!!!

I saw two of the plaids but they were small and one luggage thing but I didn't see the exact purse you had. I will have to go back and look again. I ended up looking at ALL the handbags and then stopping myself from indulging in one I didn't need (or come to look at).

I want it for $80.00! But that's till a good price. I'm going to go see the purse now. It just really seems to be ME, you know? (I am sure you do since it is YOU too. lol)

Dooney & Bourke online is having a closeout sale with this pattern. You can get it for $136.50. I bought mine at a Dooney Outlet and paid about $80.00 for it. I hate that they close out their patterns so quickly!
