    Starting in 1937 H-D sold "De Luxe" saddlebags with a one year design, they made a point out of altering the design somewhat each model year. In '37 they offered "De Luxe" saddlebags in two different styles, one black and one brown. I bought my black ones from Worsham Castle (Mike Paquette) in the U.S. See attached images.

        The ones Worsham Castle makes are very poor quality and start coming apart after little use, we had both Heathers Leathers and the Saddle Shop make them after sending them nice originals and both are good quality, but the Saddle Shop is a little nicer. We used to use Worsham's, but he became hard to work with and would not stand behind his mistakes. I wish him the best of luck in turning out a better product, but he will have to prove himself again.
