Dear authenticators,
I purchased three small leather items on ThredUp, and would be grateful if you could have a look. I am not sure how to attach sold listing photos from this seller, so the photos are ones I took. Here is the first item. The dimensions of this zip pouch are 7.5” by 4”. Thank you very much in advance!

My apologies for bumbling through this, but I am still unsure of how to provide a seller ID.

For authenticity requests, please refer to the yellow post at the top of each page of this thread for the info we need, including link and seller ID for online items or source of item and pictures of items not purchased online. This includes online purchases of items that have already been received.

What I'll say at this point is that wherever it was that you read about YKK zippers is one site you should avoid. Zipper brand has NOTHING to do with authenticity. Fakes can have real or fake YKK zippers and genuine Coach items can have other brands.

is this one fake or real? thank you for your time

I’m so sorry! I did totally forget the instructions! I bought it at a thrift store. It looked very good quality and the zippers both ran smooth but none are branded. I own probably several vintage Coach bags and they all have talon or ykk so I kinda freaked out. I’m no an expert with vintage Coach bags so I was hoping you could either tell me to trash or or keep it lol Here are better pics

Yes, it's a Shoulder Brief. Thank you for saving us some searching time, @sallellen. And it's also genuine, from the early 1990s

 

[Pursehoarder2025]

Can we have measurements, please?

It’s like 12 by 13-14 (like the base!) it’s super big!
