• Condition: Very Good. We are listing this fine Dooney Horseshoe bag in our Bargain Bags section (no returns on Bargain Bags; Always 100% guaranteed authentic Dooney & Bourke) as it has seen normal use and retains 80% of its original semi-firm shape. It is not listing as excellent or like new because it contains a few faint marks on the outside bottom and the bright taupe interior has faded, yet very nice & clean with only minor small signs of use inside (spotting/ink marks). This being said, it is a well cared for Vintage Dooney in very nice condition.
