It's authentic. It was made in 1997 as shown in the creed. Please read the Salearea guides so you can learn how to determine the date of manufacture for yourself.
It is a Sonoma small flap natural grain. I don't have a catalog photo.

Hello everyone, I'm new here! Need help authenticating this bag. It is not on an auction site. Found it at a local resale shop. It looks sort of like the slim feed style. There is no pocket on the exterior. Measures approx 10"x10" and about 3" wide at the bottom. Strap is 55" long end to end.

Genuine. AFAIK Coach has never used the name "Feed Bag" in the last 40 years, if at all, unless maybe in a Cashin style. The correct name is Shoulder Sac, style 9730 from the late 1980s.

It looks like the strap has been replaced. Coach lists the strap as 43 inches long, not 55 inches.

Thank you! .. Actually the whole bag has that color stitching, not just the strap. Is that a bad sign?
