One of the strongest apparel markets in the world is that for handbags of all forms. This market is primarily dominated by major design houses and then mass market manufacturers who try to imitate the main house products. It is, therefore, not surprising that there is special interest in channel handbags of all forms. The most common form of these bags are made by Channel and are designer bags that can be found in specialized retail stores, duty free’s and upscale department stores. These are very highest quality of channel handbags and although they may not completely be handmade, most likely they are exceptionally well made and stylish. They can be of all designs and are often sought after for their particular look and style that is known worldwide as a product of the House of Channel. There are other forms of channel handbags and we will classify the least known of these as animal lover handbags, and other specialty bags.

The Animal Lover Handbag

The least well known of all channel handbags are those known as channel cat handbags. These bags are indeed custom bags that are made for the fisherman or at least the fisherman at heart. These channel cat handbags are used to hold the bait and then the resultant fish. Typically they need to be made out of a kind of material that is easily washable. Most catfish bait is rather smelly and, therefore, before putting your caught fish in the bag, you probably should at least rinse it out. Such forms of channel handbags may be stylized with a large picture of a channel catfish on them as well. This helps the owner recognize this very special handbag for what it is and not use it for their fancy dinner occasions. Channel cat handbags are hard to find and one may have to custom refit a regular handbag if one cannot be found in your local store.

More Specialty Handbags

The English Channel handbags are also quite unique. The primary form is a handbag that may have a picture on it that depicts a scene around the English Channel. Such scenes might include the Cliffs of Dover, the port at Calais or the beautiful fields of spring flowers that are seen in the Flanders fields. These bags are typically beautifully made and may be sought after by collectors as they are a truly unique form of custom handbag. Such channel handbags may be made out of almost any material but the best are more than likely made out of European hand woven materials should you locate one of the bags.
