I'd like to join you on that field trip! Unfortunately the Coach plant there has been closed for years..

Dominican Republic maybe? Are they still open? I admit a visit to a plant in China would not be as appealing to me, I have a feeling it would be like 'The Jungle' Era Chicago, Supersized - & not in a good way :D.. On the newer leather bags, I guess most of the construction aspects are a lot less hands-on labor intensive with the new technologies that exist for cutting & stamping.

There was one long-time poster at the pre-crash Ebay Purses board who used to work for Coach and knew a lot of that background info, but she vanished from the board and apparently from Ebay 3 or 4 years ago. If anyone still knows MySecretGarden and can persuade her to join us here and share some of that knowledge, we'd be overjoyed to see her again.

Will keep a look out for her, what a bonus to have that insider knowledge!

Found this at a consignment store today. The number on the patch inside is CO6B-40019.

Sorry, I can't find a name for it. Probably something from the Legacy or Legacy Soft lines from 2003. You can call Coach's Customer Service with the serial number and they should be able to find the name.

All the non-Asian plants are closed or no longer affiliated with Coach although the Italian one makes a few limited Exotics every year, but that's probably an independent plant that just fits the Coach pieces in when needed nowadays.
