I personally like the MK look but was on the fence due to the part about it being bonded leather. I have been told numerous times its pebbled leather bonded to saffiano hence the term/wording "bonded" to give it more structure
I will revisit the bag and maybe purchase it when I see it on sale, I don't like paying full price then a week later see it on sale and as I have seen other brands and premier brands use the term bonded

Kinda off topic but the bolded section is the story of my life when it comes to a couple contemporary brands[emoji23] Anytime I make a purchase, it'll get marked down the next day and then there's an additional percentage off sale items by the weekend.

The girl at store explained to me bonded is because it is saffiano on inside and pebbled leather on outside. Is this true?

I personally like the look of the MK more. If the above is true, it wouldn't stop me from purchasing the bag since I love MKs saffiano and pebbled leather bags. It seems that bonded is an ambiguous term, so pick the one you like best....

Coach for sure!! That's without a bias to any brand. I like the slouchy look of the Coach bag plus the hardware combo with the color of the bag gives it a very nice look.

Here's the deal with the Mercer. You're right, it's bonded with pebbled and saffiano leather. So that means it's not the pvc that they use on the logo. It's supposed to last longer as it keeps its shape longer. The bag is based on the Gracie from MK collection last year and comes with a convertible strap to hold wear on your shoulder. I usually tell my ladies if you already have organizers and need space, then it's the one for you. But it does not come with as many pockets and compartments like the Savannah or the huge Marlon. Like others said, it depends if you want slouchy or structured. But I will say this was a nice surprise when we got it. It's not a top seller though. Check out the Brooklyn Grab Bag in plum or luggage (or the appliqué if you want something with more pizzaz) if you want something softer and more boho.

Btw, I will say that Coachs leather as of late is feeling superb.
