Hi! Could anyone help with identifying this? I got this online a few years ago, and it was sent to me with all of the documents shown in the second picture. However I think the registration form at least can't be for this bag, since the serial number formatting doesn't match. Thanks in advance :smile:

In the future, for bags with all numeric creeds, we need measurements to ID. This looks like a classic hobo, if it matches the measurements in this ad:

I believe the registration card probably did come with that bag. Prior to its production, serial number format did follow the format on the form. I bet when they changed to the xxxx-xxx format, they may have forgotten to change the registration form, at least at first. Your bag was probably made in the early 90s. Sometimes some of the paperwork will have a copyright date.
 
Anyone know any deets on this bag? The forum I found this pic says the lady is most likely a Coach corporate employee (hence the logo patch on her sleeve), and is test driving this new bag. What do you think?

Interesting! I like the long shoulder straps but not sure the proportions work . Looks strange . Curious to hear what others think

Even to accommodate the shoulder the straps are very long, proportionally, it looks wrong. There were some '00s bags that looked a bit like this, if I could remember who did them I tell you, but even then I don't think the handles were that long. Looks kinda weird. Coach does 'Balenciaga' :D

There was a fad for labels deliberately left on jacket sleeves like that a couple of years ago started by Gucci (referencing bespoke suiting bought by Les Les Sapeur/Le Sape (Congolese male fashionistas) - as traditional bespoke clients removed labels, but LS wore theirs 'large'. I would think it was just a suit from that era).

I've seen other photos of this bag...it appears to be an east/west version of the Empire Carryall.

Hi, just bought this coach bag, but can’t find it anywhere, it is giving 1980s feel like the coach tote with the thin straps but way skinnier, measurements are 35cm by 31cm.
Could it be a dud?

Hi, hoping for some help to identify this bag. It has the metal Coach tag inside. The gold hang tag must have been added by the previous owner.
Measurements: 10" H x 9" W
