Oof. I'm disappointed by those peeks at the men's collection. They're all pretty awful and *so* boxy. :\
This is notable, too, as it's the first time that Coach has EVER reissued the famous "Mail Bag" from Bonnie Cashin's 1968 Collection. The original is one of the most sought after vintage Coach bags in the world. I remember one from eBay in 2013, and I think it sold for around $3,000.

Personally, I don't get the appeal of that huge Mail Bag, which is really just a big messenger bag. I see nothing unique or innovative about it -- I am amazed to hear how in demand the vintage one is. The leather is nice of course, but aside from being ultra masculine, it looks so boring. Yes, IMHO...lol.
 


"Doctor, my eyes...!" ... haha, like someone said "my wallet is safe THIS season -- or with THIS collection, I should say!

This is the first time I feel this new collection is solely targeted toward Teens and/or Tweens. The iconic cartoon characters like Peanuts/Disney/Felix just seem so much classier and perfect for adults -- but not this time!

I wonder if Coach is planning to ever retire Rexy -- cute at first, but pleeeeez....give it a rest!!

Too bad I don't post how I REALLY feel, haha!

Sorry to hear you're disappointed -- personally, I like it! Does "exotic" mean the actual floral embellishments?

Actually I bought the black tea rose Python rogue again, I saw it at the store and Python pattern on this bag looked much better than the one I got. Color distribution of Python pattern was more even, and made quite a difference on the overall look of the bag.
