I have some older Coach items in my collection and they say PCP leather and it kind of waxy. Anybody know what the PCP stood for? Thanks in advance for any help.
Where does it say PCP leather - on a price tag or the creed? What year are they from and what items are they? There was a waxed leather several years ago but I don't know how that would be abbreviated as PCP.

Are you sure it's not PVC?

Polyvinylchloride - vinyl

Can you please post a picture of the bag and the tag?

PCP (pentachlorophenol) is just a chemical preservative often used to treat leather and other materials against mould and such. It doesn't have a great reputation (harmful to human health) so it's a little surprising they'd have that printed on the bag though.

I think this once BT? distressed to perfection, made in NYC bag would love to meet yours :smile: Until I have her in hand, I wont even know who she is and will have to scroll through the catalogs to try to identify her...maybe a Collegiate ? Anyway, she looked like a good project for winter, when I have nothing else to do hahahahaha.

The color is always a tough call with this amount of distressing. I tend to look hard at the inside panel with the creed as that is often the most protected. Will enjoy the guessing game once you get her, start to work on her … I know my bag came from Colorado too :smile:
Looking forward to a virtual coffee date!
