Hello! I have had the Coach Cassie crossbody in black (original, not the 19) for a couple years and it’s my favorite handbag. It’s starting to show some wear and I recently decided to start looking for a replacement since this particular bag is discontinued. I could try to find one secondhand but I really want to find something new. This style is really difficult to find for some reason so I was hoping for your recommendations! Specifications include:
- Similar in size
- Briefcase style with top handle
- Pebble or some other kind of textured leather
- under $600 if possible. Potentially willing to go slightly over if it meets all other specifications

Thank you in advance for your help!!

Have you seen the coach sammie bag ? It had a top handle but a more trapezoid shape.
Some of the tabby models seem to have a top handle too.
Yes! The leather looks smooth on the current versions and I’m pretty hard on my bags so I’d be worried about scratching. If they come out with a non-smooth leather and a black/brass color way I will definitely be considering it. I have a tabby 26 and I love it but it isn’t nearly as spacious as the Cassie.

J.W. Hulme makes the Hugo Top Handle - they have one left in Romantic Pink on their web site. I had a few of these before going in a different direction and they always reminded me strongly of the Cassie. https://www.jwhulmeco.com/products/hugo-top-handle - and yes, perhaps the finish isn't what you want but the leather is TDF and full grain and will last you far longer than any new Coach you'd find.
Ooo thank you! This is actually really similar to what I’m looking for. If they restock in black or brown I really might get one!

The photo with the back of the pink one towards the bottom looks very creased or wrinkled?
