Yes, ever so slightly - a deep brick red. I really, really wish it were a true lush dark velvet red, kwim? Like Dracula or rich Goth red LOL


It still looks pretty good but was a slight let down for me.

Yes dark velvet red is a totally different vibe than a brickish red. But....I think the fringe dakotah would look good in a brickish red so i am contemplating completing my collection with one. :cool:

I'm reporting in :p

Nothing will be out on display until Oct 24 and more stock is arriving but so far, this is what I got to see today.


  1. med pebbled turnlock borough - red current
  2. med leather gramercy - oxblood/black 545 cad or 495 usd
  3. med printed stripe hair calf gramercy - 1210 cad or 1100 usd - we think we figured out where the 795 usd (845 cad) JAX pricing came from - those are mini hair calf gramercy bags!? Who knew? We do not recall seeing the word Mini hair calf or 10" wide hair calf in any description but yea; I think this caused the confusion
  4. med croc embossed gramercy - mink 765 cad - SA told me this is Premium grade Italian cowhide which is excellent, excellent quality. I believe it :D


Anyway, I came very close to saying YES to the croc Gramercy, I really love it. It looked great with what I was wearing today etc. The turnlock does get in the way of the internal zip pocket a bit but it's ok. I almost said YES to the Robot key chain too!


I believe that the Gramercy bags could sell out locally because we have tons of Asian tourists who buy up Coach because Coach costs less in NA compared with Asia. The Gramercy bags are truly very lovely - these are light weight as well.


I am really waiting to see if The Bay will stock the Gramercy because if it does, it won't be long before I can get 25% off that's just the plain truth.

Thank you for the photo. Do you know if the croc on the Gramercy is the same as the mink Crosby?

I had a look at the floral print items today. I went in to inquire about the cosmetic bag. I figured they would need to order it for me, but they had just gotten all the floral stuff, so she pulled one from the back. I guess they aren't supposed to go on the floor until Friday? She also brought out the other floral stuff they got in (the Borough, the Crosby, wallets, and wristlets). They're all quite lovely. I ended up taking the cosmetic bag (the smaller one) home with me. I'll post pics some time later.

YES - I was modeling and playing with the croc Gramercy the most; 2nd the oxblood. I have to walk away from the hair calf - I just don't want to go there (not used to Coach bags being so $$$. I know they've put out $$$ limited edition bags in the past but still, at this price point, I'm looking at other brands more seriously).


Back to croc embossed leather (contemporary brands) - oh, is this what your research tells you? I can believe it. I've managed to avoid all croc, ostrich and lizard embossed leather bags even by premier designers BUT when I found the Coach Legacy Harper in croc embossed leather, I really fell for it. It was 50% off at Winners and I went back/forth for it. Bought it, returned it, regretted and bought it again. I'm glad I kept her but now, when it comes to croc embossed handbags: I have visions of the Fendi Peekaboo croc and the Hermes croc Birkin! Neither of those will happen in my life time so...the croc Gramercy is looking pretty good. I have one on hold along with the robot key chain


Again, I'm only concerned that if The Bay receives any croc Gramecy bags, I know I can get 25% off. The Bay already stocks the mink croc Crosby and other ocelet hair calf bags.

My research! LOL :roflmfao:

I guess my shopping is a form of research! :p

Seriously, I do think Coach does a really nice croc embossed--the FP versions anyway.

I won't spend $$$$ on Coach. Coach for me is $$. :cool:

It will be interesting to see what the department store offerings are going to be this time around. I am guessing the Ranger and at least some floral will be in dept stores since it is in the 2nd round of advertising. Not knowing is one reason I won't consider Gramercy quite yet...I gotta see what's what!!

How do you like the floral leather? I can't decide if it looks cute or too vintage

I like it even better in person that I did from pics. I don't think it looks cutesy. Coach describes it as a "moody" floral, and I think that's a good way to describe it. I also think it being on a black background keeps it from looking dated.

Agreed! :smile1:

I didn't think I would like it, but once I saw it in person I changed my mind.

The leather texture is interesting in a good way!
