Inspiration Behind the Name
The Augusta honors Augusta Van Buren, a trailblazer in travel in the United States. Born in 1884, Augusta and her sister Adeline set out on a cross-country motorcycle journey to prove a point. They rode 5500 miles in 60 days, from Brooklyn to Los Angeles and down into Mexico, in protest of not being allowed to join the military dispatch service during World War I.
The sisters dedicated their motorcycle journey to proving that women were capable of doing any job as well as a man. While considered icons today, Augusta and Adeline were arrested several times during their journey for wearing “men’s clothes” and were often criticized for their feat. This bag celebrates Augusta's dedication to advancing women’s rights.
