Meet the HARVEYS, husband and wife Dana and Melanie Harvey. In March 1997, while installing seatbelts into their 1950 Buick, they had the idea of making Melanie a matching handbag. Everyone loved hers so much that they decided to make more. They started making them in their one car garage in California but quickly outgrew it. They’ve since expanded to a 12,000 ft2 design studio in Santa Ana, California where every seatbelt bag is lovingly built to exact specifications. The Harveys are committed to producing a bag of superior quality using the finest and most durable materials available. Never satisfied with the status quo, they are constantly adding new colors and styles.
Here are just a few sample seatbelt bags in the harvey collection along with real customer reviews.

“Beautiful bag, one of many in my collection but at the moment my favorite. Big enough for all of your items and has enough space for everything. I love it. It looks more girly because of the ruffle. I just love Harvey’s Seatbelt Bag.”

Harvey’s seatbelt bag —
I love Harvey’s seatbelt bag. In fact they are all that I will carry. I have collected quite a few over the years, but always seem to go back to my very first dark gray tote. The size is perfect for everything, the straps are perfect length and is incredibly durable inside and out. ]
The large tote is my favorite style due to the size and strap length. For going out the medium zip tote and baguette are great options especially in black or red.
For Christmas last year my husband surprised me with the full size wallet and it is great. I carry it every day it looks as it were brand new. I wish it has a few more pockets for cards but I love it just the same.
Each time I log onto their website I find new pattern or style I want.
