Any love fossil?

Just to add, my DH also loves Fossil. He is European, so was never opposed to carrying a messenger bag, but his fave thus far has been a cognac leather messenger he bought a year ago at Fossil. Not too bag, not too small for him and the organization works so well for him, lot of pockets both inside and out and a secure laptop area too.

He never complains when I buy a Fossil bag (unlike other ones!) because he knows they last!
 
I just bought my new fossil tote last week. It was my 1st bag. I had a wallet last summer and it was the softest leather ever.. This one is suede and fur... Good deal too..

I have a Maddox Satchel that I've carried nearly every day since getting it. I got it at the Fossil outlet store. Walked from that outlet to the Coach outlet and there was no question who was the winner. Quality leather bag at an outlet price vs. cheap bags produced solely for the outlets at twice the price? No contest.

It's interesting you say that you don't feel classy enough for Coach, because classy isn't how I'd currently describe Coach.
 
I think Fossil is definitely an underrated brand. I love some of their bags and they are very durable. And their mens' line is really fantastic--the briefcases and messengers are sharp and the leather is quite nice. We have two Fossil outlets close to us and you can find some really nice styles for a great price.

I am finding I love Fossil bags more than my Coach ones.

Just curious and to play devils advocate - how would your describe Coach? I literally laughed when I read that.. Lol. ;)
 
I don't own any Coach bags and likely never will, but am shocked to learn that they produce bags specifically to be sold at outlets! I've gotten some good deals on Fossil in outlets - seriously good deals considering the quality of the leather and how long everything lasts! My last wallet lasted four and a half years. It's not even broken, just a little tired and scuffed. My new wallet is also Fossil - the Maddox zip around in a lime green.
 
I LOVE Fossil. I think the Vintage Line is great and I have The Weekender with the Cheetah Leather. I had to have it! Fossil Jewelry is so fun and I just bought another necklace of theirs today. :smile1: I also think Fossil bags are way under rated as well.
 
I like them, but recently sold a few of my vintage reissue bags cuz in everyday use they turned out to be a bit huge. I'm starting to wane on the vintage look though. I'm not so keen on their current designs for some reason, but I'm hoping they change it up soon.
 
I just bought my first Fossil bag. I've no idea of the name, but it's a gorgeous aqua and the leather is yummy. Plus, it's deceptively large and I can wear it cross body (that style usually looks weird on me). So, new Fossil fan over here!
