This seller has a number of them in different colors.
Yes, yes she does. I only have one. Muhahahhahahaha... but I've got that Louisa she has, too.
At a glance I thought this was a set of standard Soho buckets --style 4153. The tan one seems older (and is pre-style # on the creed if authentic). But they are either different styles entirely, or somebody maybe isn't for real. I don't want to rehab the tan one if she's not real. The body shape is pretty much the same. The handles are totally different, and the inner slip pockets vs. zipper pocket and metal zipper vs plastic. I know sohos generally had the plastic zipper. Otherwise, size wise and shape, identical at 11"W x 11"H x 5" D. Help me PLEASE solve the mystery..THANKS!! if they are different bags, I guess if the tan one has a different name/style I'd love to know. if you need bigger or different photos let me know.

I have that bag in Mahogany. I'm not positive, but I think it's the Bucket Bag, which is style number 4075. Mine also has the 7 digit serial numbers.
Wait for Hyacinth to confirm though.

hmmm. there are A LOT of 4153 style #s for sale online which match my black bag-- that's where I looked first. (I"d hope they ALL weren't fakes LOL) So if the tan is a truly different style # that will be GREAT to know. But an interesting twist on a similar looking bag!!
UPDATE : I just went and looked up 4075 online auctions and it is like the tan one. so interesting that Coach would use what seems to be an identical bag body and just change the strap , zipper, and inner slip pocket detailing...
I hope that mine are BOTH real!! I've been having bad luck with that lately
The tan one is just a late 1980s Lightweights Bucket Bag 4075. I don't see any problems with it.
4153 is a Soho Bleeker Bag and the style was introduced in 1995. So one apparently replaced the other.

Did you do a Search of the main Coach forum for the style number? I'm sure that bag has been discussed there several times.

Thank you! It's neat to see the progression. The buckles on the Soho are a nice look.

Please authenticate. I'd like to know the name and date, if possible. It is a little different from a Baxter, I think. Thanks a bunch!

Thanks! I learned about pilot designs!
I think the pleated design in gray leather is awesome. Can't wait to get it.
It's the Broadway Satchel, style 9891. Don't know much more about it. Maybe mid to late 1980's.
I have that bag and mine doesn't have the shoulder strap either, though it does work well as a hand held bag.
