The Conti pouch name comes from the Conti-Dragons, an infantry and cavalry regiment created in 1776, whose sword was held by a "dragonne" (wrist strap). Created for these soldiers, the "dragonne" is the distinctive element of the Conti pouch.
The Conti pouch is the ideal companion for keeping one's everyday personal belongings. It features a strap so it may be held by hand or around the wrist, and can indifferently be sported during the daytime or as an evening bag. It can also be used as an organiser for a bag.
