Ohhh thanks Jan! The indigo suede is the one I've been waiting for!!!
 
those are smoking - but suede? has trouble (at least for me) written all over it...
I really think if you spray it with a suede protector, you'd be fine. They make shoes out of suede - and they get a lot more wear than your purse would, don't you think?
I don't baby my bags - but I do take, what I consider, normal care of them. (like on the seat, not the floor, and never on the floor in a restaurant etc).
 
Welcome! Me too.....When someone posted that it was in the FNO pix on the website, I figured it must be coming soon. CS told me to "check back"... so I'm hoping that means any day now.

Yay! My large black cherry duffle is supposed to ship next week..and hopefully this will be available to order soon! I need some Legacy bags!! I've been dying! LoL

I love suede....and I live in Nebraska...home of rain, sleet, ice and blizzards!!! The most important thing about suede is to brush it on a regular basis. My Coach SA told me that you don't even need a brush....a washcloth that feels a little "rough".....and brush it after every use! No problemo!!

No problemo is right! Wow, that's good info.... makes sense, suede shoes they tell you to do the same.

I looked at the Fringed Suede Duffle this weekend - It was beautiful - so unique - but I was so afraid the fringe would tear off. The one I looked at, fresh out of package, some of the strips weren't cut all of the way through at the bottom - for $700 - I shouldn't have to be the one doing quality control. I think solid suede is a safer bet (if you caught a strip on the fringe one it would ruin the bag).

Crimson is supposed to be coming in:
21238 - Maggie
21239 - Carrie
21243 - Juliette
18627 - Lindsey
20484 - Madison Tote

I think Drill Downs are up for most of these, but I couldn't find drill downs for any of the Willis bags.

Patent new Willis - 21229
Patent mini new Willis - 21246
Patent city Willis - 22061

Not sure how to find pics, but apparently these are coming in brass/crimson and silver/cobalt. I saw the brass/crimson out and about in NYC once and almost wanted to chase the girl down to ask about it. I don't know how she got it so early, but it was gorgeous...
 
Also, since I know there are several SAs and drilldown-finders-extraordinaire on this thread...

Does anyone have info about the legacy colorblock in B4/C8 "brass/camel multi"? I am lemming this combination so bad after seeing the clutch photo below... Really curious when it'll be coming out, what bags it'll come out in, and how those bags will look since I feel like the colorblock items can look pretty different depending on the bag's shape and what parts are which color!

Please share if you have any info? :)

I will have to take a look at the Juliette in person before deciding. For you ladies who have been on here a while, remember we were all upset about Sabrina being deleted but most of us grew to love Audrey. Sophia, admittedly, was one of those bags that resonated with the majority of members right away. And I think it is a fantastic shape and like it better than Audrey and Sabrina. But personally I am a little Sophia'd out...I currently have 10 of them so I am ready for a change. Hopefully Juliette is not that bad and will grow on us.

With regards to Juliette's long shoulder strap, I am going to risk being chastised and say that the bag is meant to be a satchel and carried on the arm or hand and not over the shoulder. Same with Sabrina, Audrey, and Sophia. Remember how horrible Sabrina looked when carried by the long strap? Completely changed the shape into that bat wing look! I think Coach adds the long strap as an option if you periodically need to be hands free but it is not meant to be shoulder bag per se.

Bags like Isabelle and Maggie are true shoulder bags. Though they can be carried on the arm they look better carried on the shoulder. The reverse is true for the satchels.

Excellent point!

Yes....and suede spray...it's a great water repellent. I like the fringe bag also..haven't seen irl...but i thought with my luck i would spend $700 on it and next year fringe would be the weirdest thing to wear! Now...just suede hobo...oh yes!!! Excited!!!

I love that fringe bag!! Saw it IRL and it is so much fun! Suede is not my thing though.
