Ferragamo.... the leather is gorgeous

Definitely my LV's!! Aside from the patina they've developed they still look new and I use them all the time.

I've owned many of the bags that are on this forum, but I define quality as being able to use the bag frequently while it still maintains it's original brand new appearance. So, I would have to say it would have to be Jimmy Choo. Those bags are built like trucks, with amazing details. I can see them lasting forever.

Tough one... to me it's Hermes, LV, BV, Chanel, and Prada. I love them all... it's hard to choose which is the best.

leilani01 · Sep 16th, 2009, 11:26 PM

Bottega Veneta (BV) followed by Ferragamo....

Alana1981 · Sep 16th, 2009, 11:56 PM

Ysl and LV.

Wow suzi, that's great to know. I always thought about getting a black Ramona, I love the idea that they are so durable.

The highest-priced bags I own are LV, and I feel their quality is excellent; I could run them over in my car, and they would still be fine. After that I would have to say Botkier and MZ Wallace.

karmenzsofia · Sep 17th, 2009, 05:03 PM

Prada and Marc Jacobs. I haven't owned BV or Jimmy Choo, but I think they're amazing too.

Chanel caviar. My mum gave me her caviar flap from the 90s and it still looks brand new! The leather durability is just magnificent. We never have to do anything with it like moisturising/waterproofing it.
LV. My classic monogramme Speedy has suffered from constant abuse and it still looks as good as when I first bought it.

I own a lot of different brands (Prada, McQueen, Fendi, Miu Miu, Marc Jacobs etc.), but I must say Mulberry bags are the best IMO (although I don't own any Hermes of course) - of the 5 mulberry bags I have I use my bayswater every day for college, and after having abused her for over a year I can honestly say this bag can whithstand just about anything and still look great and distinctively Mulberry. And it's not as highly priced as the other designer bags - I just love this brand!

I'm curious - WHERE exactly are you shopping to get these great vintage bags at half price??
