Ok thanks!
The one I posted picture of above is sorta plastic looking. But, I got it cheap enough so I am not worried. I can just give it to a family member.
But, the one with the 035-6140
really felt like leather and looked authentic. Even had the little tag on chain arround the straps.
I must admit I got fooled by this last one. The 4C-9911. But it is sorta plasticy and leathery....
Considering that I am new at this I expect to take a few hits. But I did not pay that much.
I think my best option is to call Coach directly. I will have to find that number at thier web site.
I liked the link you sent me for style comparisons of older models, but is that a complete list?
Terminology:
What is creed?
Thanks again!
