Coach used to sell replacement straps. Now they would rather sell you a new purse!
Sneaky buggers.... Well, I bought it. I'm in deep poo with hubs. [emoji15] It was $36 shipped! I couldn't say no, now could I???
Thoughts on the name/style of this bag? When I saw it at Goodwill, I thought it was black but when I was looking at in the car, I realized there was a slight gray to the color! The measurements are approximately 9.25 inches(W) x 7.25 inches(H) x 3 inches (D). The creed number is 901-7806. There is an open slot on both sides of the bag. Thank you in advance!

It's a Blazer bag #9830 from the late 80s. The color could be flannel grey. The best place to tell is to look at the back of the inside pocket.
It looks like Black that's faded over the years. It will probably darken a bit if it's given a bath and conditioning. Flannel Grey is quite a bit lighter, like the catalog photo below.

Thank you both for the valuable information. Hyacinth, thank you for the photo reference. It is definitely not Flannel Grey, though now I know what Flannel Grey looks like. I feel like my eyes are playing tricks on me. It could be faded black or navy. I am leaning towards faded black.

You're welcome! I think it could be navy. Vintage navy is so close to black you can't really tell unless you put it next to a black bag. I've gone back and forth on many bags that I thought were different colors. I have had bags that I thought were other colors that ended up being black, but I've also bought bags I thought were black that turned out to be gray after washing and conditioning. The gray looked darker than in the photo Hyacinth posted but it was definitely gray, not just faded black. Maybe age and the conditioning made it darken.
I just got one of these. I wonder why no one knows what it is.I think one of these got discussed before, but I'm having a brain fart and can't remember.It's about 9" wide & 5.5" high. NYC bag
Thanks ladies!
I am wondering if anyone knows of a style number for an NYC Coach Swag. It has been mentioned that Coach did not start using style numbers until around 1976 but some styles that were produced before then did have a style number assigned. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks for all you do.
It's from the 2013 Legacy collection. There were several ticking stripe items that were talked about on the forum at the time. About a year before, there was a Hamptons Weekend collection which is very similar.
I'm going off topic here, but I love the scarf print bag in blue that's pictured. I have the pink version! It was my first Coach purchase back when I was a poor college student. Ahh, memories.
