Morning,
Purchased this bag. Looks and feels strange to me. The part under the flap is not raw leather either.
Thoughts please on authenticity?
Long strap messenger bag with flap and turn lock closure.
Also, does anyone know the style name of this bag?
Thank you.
I don't know the name but it's authentic.
 
Good morning, I'd love it if you could take a look at this backpack for me. Thanks!

Comment: Serial H9C-9966. If authentic, was it made for factory outlet in 99? Can you tell where?
It's authentic. It was made in a US factory in 1999, not necessarily on the mainland. It may not have been made for the outlet originally but it was sold at the outlet finally.

It's 9960 (not 9966) from 1999 and although that particular bag was purchased at the outlet, it isn't MFF.


Oops, @whateve's faster fingers beat me!

Comments: If authentic, do you think "mahogany" color correct? What year was it made?
It's authentic. It was made in 1999. I believe the color is burgundy or something like that. I'm not sure I ever found an official name for this 1999 color. I have this color in a Rambler's legacy. Mahogany would have brass hardware.

I don't know the name but it's authentic.
It's a lenox bag 9918. It is normal for many flap bags to have a double layer of leather on the flap to make it stay flat.

I found it, in the Fall 1999 catalog. The color was called Currant.

Good afternoon everyone!
Hoping to get an authentication on this bag, hopefully the style name and opinions on candidacy for rehab...

Item: AUTH VINTAGE COACH 9134 BROWN LEATHER BIG MESSENGER CROSS BODY BAG good condition
Listing: 192958725450
Seller: jajanb0
Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/AUTH-VINTA...&itm=192958725450&_trksid=p5411.c100167.m2940

Listing says Costa Rica, but I think that she maybe used verbage from a prior listing and didn't edit properly.

Thanks in advance for any help and rehab opinions!
