Something wonky is going on with the dust bags. My smaller Shay crossbody and tabby 20 came with no dust bags - the representative said those bags do not come with dust bags. I was like ok....So I asked if they can send me two and they are apparently sold out of dust bags. She explained that if the bag was supposed to come with a dust bag it would have as its already with the bag. So I am not sure whether they are out of it and that’s why some bags aren’t getting it or whether someone is not packaging them properly.
Odd! My Plaza tote & chain hobo both came with dust bags.
I have thought though, how difficult it must be to fulfill orders, when so much stock has to be still at all of the retail stores that are closed.
 
Wonder if the dust bags are made in China? I really don't know but are things being received from China or other countries right now in to the US? Before all this became a pandemic, I purchased a Hammitt bag at Dillards and thought it would come with a dust bag but didn't. I reached out to CS on the Hammitt website and they are more than happy to send me a dust bag even though this style wasn't supposed to come with one but they currently weren't available. I believe their bags are made in China but designed in L.A. So my assumption was they weren't receiving shipments. Seems odd Coach retail bags wouldn't come with some form of dust bag....might not be the nice heavy ones from the 1941 line but you'd think they would at least be those slippery ones - which I hate any way but they get the job done! I keep wanting to make my own in fabric similar to 1941 but never seem to have the time and my sewing machine is in storage several states away. Would have come in handy for face masks and dust bags!

Things are still being imported from China.
 
Was this bag maybe originally supposed to be an Outlet bag and they switched it Retail/Boutique? That tag and no dust bag make me wonder. :noworry:
No telling but they do have these at Dillard's etc. too so I would say probably not. I've also noticed the Emery bag at Dillard's etc. too, which usually only carries the Coach NY line of leathers, so I'm wondering what that's all about if it's a "Coach Original," which usually uses the 1941 leathers....

No, I don’t think so- this is a more contemporary bag design. Just really weird about the tag on it. I was actually eyeing the crossbody version but I would have to see it in person.

Speaking of the Originals, it seems like the rest of the releases were either cancelled or pushed back. Any news on upcoming Originals releases?

It's $262 at Dillard's.

No Intel in any new items :(
 
Here is my white Shay. She is so gorgeous, the shade of white is on point, and the leather is super buttery and it smells so good. I can't wait to carry her out when the time is right. The handle drop is perfect as the bag sits on my shoulder comfortably with no slippage. Very happy with her.

I got mine yesterday as well, and I love it. I’m definitely keeping it. It does stand up on its own. It slouches at the top. Sorry, you didn’t get a dust bag with yours Teagaggle, but mine did come with a dust bag. Just out of curiosity, did you ask for a gift box?
Thank you for sharing your pics! Mine is on the way in the same color, the handle is gorgeous!
