Default Pictures of Coach Denin and Tonal C Denim

I looked all over and do not see a post of Coach denim.
I am thinking about getting a denim Coach handbag, just don't know if it should be Tonal C Hobo or the Ergo Signature denim pleated framed satchel. I like a large shoulder drop.

I also want a denim bag for year round. The tonal looks pretty light.
If you own any of the denim line (even wallets or wristlets) can you add a picture?

I don't own any but I would choose the Ergo framed satchel as it is made of the jacquard fabric. The tonal denim is canvas and get dirty quite easily IMO.

The tonal is definitely lighter than the sig denim in the Ergo line. I also found that the shoulder drop in the satchel was not enough for me, and the straps are so wide that I couldn't wear it comfortably on my shoulder.

Have you considered the Ergo pleated hobo in denim instead? That's what I ended up going with and it has a much bigger shoulder drop than the satchel. Here's a link to another thread with a pic (I don't have any at the moment): Found 2 perfect bags!

I'm afraid I don't know anything about the tonal hobo, so I can't help you there.

Good luck with your decision!

I agree with PurpleRose regarding the drop on the satchel. I love the style, but it doesn't have a long enough drop for me to be comfortable. I have the pleated ergo tote and hobo (not in denim) and they have a very comfortable drop. I also have the tonal c hobo in pink and absolutely love it. It has a great drop and is super light-weight and comfortable. Good luck with your decision and let us know what you end up with.

This is the denim tote from last year. The fabric is the same as on the ergo posted below.



The tonal is a lighter color, and looks a bit more distressed: (eBay photo)




I personally prefer the regular denim, but it depends on the bag. It's not bad on the soho hobo, but don't think I'd like this on the tote or ergo bags.

I'd go w/ the reg denim, not the tonal.
The tonal looks too fragile or something.

Isn't the tonal a cotton bag and last year's denim is jacquard? The jacquard would definitely hold up better IMO. The cotton tonal looks VERY casual. I guess because of the washed out look it has. I prefer last year's as well.
