Post 29 has the MFF Brooklyn which has turnlocks. It may be fake but let me see if I can find one that was on eBay or Bonanza. The studs do look small on the one you are asking about. They came in black berry and a steel pebbled leather

Here is the black:

There are a couple of things that don't look right, just based on the details Coach normally uses:
The Dog-leash clip doesn't seem to be the right design

The O-rings on the clip and the one that the clip attaches to look pretty thin and flimsy compared to most Coach hardware

The rivets at the top of the leather pieces the oval metal pieces are attached to also look pretty small compared to the normal hardware.

I'm not getting a good feeling from that bag. Off to try and find photos...

ETA - That was easy - Brooklyn Shoppers have buckles on the front pockets, not turnlocks.

Coach's official name is Legacy Leather Large Pocket Tote, style 7466.

It doesn't seem like they would have made a different pocket closure for the MFF versions, and you can still see the differences in the quality and thickness of the hardware. The one AlbertsLove asked about is fake.

Thank you soo much. I was pretty convinced it was real because she said it was heavy leather. Oh well.

Thanks everyone.

Shoe, looks like you're right. I only searched for Brooklyn under Current, not Completed. I apologise. The hardware still looks wonky to me compared to what I'm familiar with but apparently it's genuine.

This is why I try to stick with authenticating only older styles.

In bags made in 1994 or later, the style number is actually included in the serial number. It makes it MUCH easier to look up a style name when we have the number and the year it was made.

There are three slightly different names listed at Ebay so I'll pick one - Soho Mini Signature Large Flap Satchel seems to be the closest description to the actual style.

Does anyone know anything about this little coin purse (from Italy of real Python)? I can't find much out about it, particularly its age or even what they retailed for. Considering how seriously pricey Python bags are, I imagine it was a pretty little penny but haven't found another one posted on tpf before. TIA!

The shape of it is similar to my Madison card cases, but the dustbags that they came with say "The Madison Collection" on them. I would guess that it is from around the same time period, both because of the shape and because that is when they were making things in Italy, although I think they still make some items with exotic skins in Italy.

Hello!

I saw a Coach bag on a pop-up this morning with a link to coach.com. When I went to find the bag, it was not on the website and now I can't find the pop-up.

The bag was all leather, a deep tan or "luggage" color, and the leather was gathered and folded in a chevron like pattern.

She was beautiful and I want her. Please help! :yes:

Just a quick question...I'm thinking of buying a glam tote...finally. LOL I've seen many in the boutiques, Dillards and Macy's in leather and sateen but am not familiar with the canvas as in the Poppy Signature C Crosshatch Canvas version. Is the canvas nice, easy to keep clean and is it as durable as the sateen?

Thanks...I appreciate your opinion.

The python items are much more recent. It's probably no more than 5 or 6 years old, which is the earliest I can remember them using this style of python. They weren't using any snakeskin during the time the Madisons were being made.
