Hi Guys, I need Your help once again. Thanks to You I've had my first original vintage Coach bag and now Im looking for another one. Do You thinks these two items are genuine? Thanks!
1) http://allegro.pl/coach-torebka-skora-i7024789218.html#thumb/8 (this looks like Coach New Hippie bag)
2) http://allegro.pl/coach-mala-czerwona-torebka-vintage-i7015953460.html#imglayer (I've no clue :o)
omg, that red one is gorgeous! It was called a shoulder purse and was made around 1986. The black one was called a hippie flap and was made in 2001.
 
Hello ladies.
No hurry about this, just curious LOL
I bought a bag on Ebay that had no hang tag, the seller messaged me to say it was mailed, and she had included another one that didn't match the bag, but at least I had one.
When I got it I didn't know what to think, because I had never seen a rubber Coach tag before. Is there any purse that has these type of tags?
As I said, only curious. TIA

I have an outlet backpack from a few years ago that is nylon that came with a rubber tag like that.

Hello! New here and new to the brand so thanks in advance for the help. Is this a city bag? I notice that the strap on this one is non-adjustable and google images shows city bags with an adjustable strap. Am I way off? I can't figure out the serial numbers either. I'm assuming it's pre 90s? Thanks.

It's not a city bag. City bags don't have removable straps. That one looks like the strap is attached with buckles on each side. It could be a spectator bag from the late 80s. We need more measurements and information about the pockets in order to confirm.

Right on, thank you for your knowledge! I ordered this last night in a wave of excitement after I signed up for Poshmark. I'll post the remaining info when I have the bag in hand.
Thanks!
 
I am curious about this bag. Which I really like, but the price is prohibitive for me. It would be a great companion to my Market tote . . . Anyone see it their vintage catalogues?

There's a larger version that's about 12x14 inches listed from at least 1976 to about 1982, style number 9565. One catalog lists it as a Shopping Bag Large so this is probably a smaller version that was only available for a short time. I don't have any pics or style number for the smaller version but here's the Large from Fall 1982.

Thanks Hyacynth. I did not recognize it as the Drawstring Tote with the sides folded in!
And thank you for the Shopping Bag info. I love that name :smile:

A few other Lightweight tote styles were usually photographed with the sides folded in but could also have a more east-west look with those top corners pulled out. It gave the styles a little more flexibility. And it makes them easier to use with modern electronics like tablets or smaller laptops, although on this style it looks like the drawstring pulls the sides in naturally. Here's the Coach pic of the sides-tucked-in variation:
