The hardware on these bags are really a step above the regular MK bags.
I agree, the Collection bags are on another level altogether. The leather & craftsmanship are outstanding. I've missed out on several collection bags, it's heartbreaking to miss out for only a dollar. I feel very lucky when I get them. My most expensive collection bag was $60. It's unbelievable that people let them go for that low, but I guess they don't know what they're selling. Check out my collection here. https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/show-us-your-michael-kors-collection-bags.1024198/
Those are lovely. I just bought what is supposed to be a collection bag with a COA and it's very close to this old school michael kors bag that I just bought last week (1st pic) its dry and needs stuffing and shaping, but honestly some of the older bags seem to be just as nice if you can find them in good shape. Unfortunately the new michael by michael kors bags just aren't made that way anymore.
I like the vintage MMK bags too. It's hard to find out any names or info on the old MMK though. I don't think they are faking the vintage bags & they are much better quality. That hardware looks alot like a turqouis shoulder bag I have. I still have not found a name for mine. I'll bet they are cousins!!
What a great color! That's not one you see often with his bags
Thanks! It's a fun color, very spring/summer. It was in great condition, other than the musty odor that took a while to remedy.
The second bag Infinally got that was listed as a collection bags is another pre date code Mk. Pretty out of shape. I'm thinking about dunking it like I've done to my dooneys and coaches. Or I can be patient and just stuff, rub, wait, repeat.
Congrats! I've heard you could clean bags by dunking, but I've always been too nervous to "take the plunge".
How do you do it? Fill the kitchen sink with soapy water, let soak and the air dry?
Depends on what its issues are. The dooney and coach rehab threads have oodles of info. I only have done it on sturdy leather bags with fantastic stitching and good hardware.Congrats! I've heard you could clean bags by dunking, but I've always been too nervous to "take the plunge".
