Need help with buying mens bag!

[Handbag_Whore]

My boyfriends PRADA leather bag has broken at the strap. Its a holdall/weekend away type bag.

I'm looking for a super good deal on a similar bag, can be any brand so long as its designer....can anyone help me.

My budget is £200 absolute max (not much i know....)

Thanks guys!

How about a Mulberry Medium Clipper @ £185?

I really like this one Im not so sure he would though. His prada one is tan leather which he seems to really like. But I guess Im not going to be able to match that with my price range?!

Unfortunately I don't think you'll get anything designer w/ leather with a cap of £200 unless you're willing to purchase used. Maybe Burberry?

Maybe a pre-loved Louis Vuitton Keepall? I don't know if 200 would suffice for a pre-loved one though.

Im totally willing to get one second hand off ebay but haven't had much looking...

How about getting a good cobbler to repair his Prada?

You'd think for Prada prices they would have a lifetime guarantee/free repairs? Coach does that for bags that cost a lot less than Prada.

DH has a nice 'Swiss Army' weekender bag but I don't know if you'd consider that 'designer' - it's black leather and cost around $250 (Cdn.)

^^ I ripped the inside of a wallet a few years back and Prada (via Barneys) did the repair for free. I agree that repairing the original might be a better route.

How about Lacoste or Tony Perotti? Jack Spade has a lot of options, too.
