Official Coach CHAT Thread!!!

Random comment: Coach's "chalk" color really is disappointing. I went to pair the bag with an outfit over the weekend and it was so much more yellow-toned than when I first got it 3 years ago.
My Crosby in Chalk has turned slightly off-white, though the handles are still "Chalk" white. How is everyone else's experience with the Chalk color? I really wanted the Grace with Quilting & Rivets in Chalk, but have to let that dream go, as my Crosby has disappointed me so much. I hope my 1941 Coach 25 Rogue with floral pattern in Chalk holds up much better than this...

I have only had my Rogue satchel in chalk for over a little over a year, so I cannot say in terms on long term how it has changed, it's still the same at this point. Could it have to do with either or the leather quality and how much sun exposure they receive? I did own a while back the quilted Poppy slim tote in chalk, and that one I had for at least two years and it never turned on me- but I also didn't wear it all the time either.

Thank you so much for sharing this deal! I was able to get some of the items I really wanted and at such good prices. I got the green spooky eyes totes, spooky eyes accordion card case, and snow white turn lock pouch.

Just don’t tell LT it’s my fault! [emoji85][emoji14]

I only have 1 and have only had it since earlier this year; so time will tell. I keep it in the closet and don't use this one a lot. Mine came as more of an off white, but it's a mff Margot; so it might depend on the leather. I am sorry to hear you're going through that.

I have a chalk Chelsea with all over studs. I’ve had it for about a year and a half. I only wear it in warm weather and used it heavily last summer. When I brought it out for this Summer I did feel it was a little less bright so I cleaned it with leather cleaner and I think that helped. I didn’t realize how much dirt / residue would stick to it. My only complaint with it is that the fabric on the zipper is white and gets dirty from my hand zipping and unzipping and holding the bag open. The studs on the bag are bronze and gunmetal and I think I’d prefer if the fabric part of the zipper matched the studs to hide dirt.

If dirt were the issue on mine, I’d expect the handles to be severely discolored, not the bag. I have been using a random leather conditioner and cleaner brand, but wil attempt to see if using Coach cleaner works better.

I don't know if it's been mentioned but Saks has the green Dark Fairytale rogue on sale 30% off.

Omg. Tried this on in store and was so tempted, but it was a size or two too big and I don't have a spare $1400 But I was so close to being financially irresponsible, so it was a good thing that size wasn't right or who knows what I would've done. Absolutely gorgeous and I love KH, and the quality was impeccable. It really fit in with my outfit of the day too! I'm determined to own Coach RTW one day though!! I also spotted the teeny tiny Roxy necklace I wanted to get - it's so cute and small; I think I'm gonna go for it!

Coachies need your inputs

I bought a Turnlock hobo in black and love it. At the same time, i found a nomad in navy for a great price so i bought that online. But now i feel there is barely any difference between the two.
I know i wanna keep the hobo cus i needed a bigger bag. But i cant figure out if i should keep the nonad or sell. Itss soo luxurious and gorgeous but i am questioning if it serves any purpose in my wardrobe

What do u think?

I think they are very different. One is black, one is navy. One is pebbled, one is smooth leather. The nomad is a lot smaller.

 

[meepabeep]

They're different, I'd keep both.

Sorry if this is the wrong thread. I've tried several Coach card cases in different leathers and they always seem too tight to actually use all the slots at once. I'm curious if anyone has a Glovetanned leather case and how it compares.

Hobo for everyday and the Nomad for nicer occasions. Everyone should have a Nomad.

Are handbags best stored hanging or on shelves? The last child is moving out and I'm trying to put a positive spin on this by thinking of the extra walk in closet I'll have to store my bags and shoes in. I want to make sure I do it right.

I have one in glovetanned leather and was hoping it would be more flexible and stretchy but only the main compartment in the middle is like that. The card slots on the exterior are still tight and they kind of bend my cards outwards. I'm hoping the leather will stretch with more use. My current favorite is a zip card case in pebble leather I picked up from the FOS sale for about $18. It looks like this https://www.coach.com/coach-zip-card-case/22879.html and is super easy to slide your cards in and out. I highly recommend it!
