Thanks Harley. My first saffiano bag (I normally go for pebbled leather) and it sure did not disappoint. I love this bag.
Poorly listed Borough on ebay might go for a good price... listing ending soon.

Hi, I'm a long time lurker on this blog
I'm just wondering if anyone purchased the Small borough bag? How much can it hold? I bought the mini size version with 3 zipper compartments but returned it because it's too heavy for such a small size and really could not hold as many things as I wanted too (just cell phone, wallet, makeups and eyeglasses). Sooo is there anyone has a small borough please let me know what you think about it! They are pretty much out of stock at Macys and Bloomies so Im kinda panicked now. I found out about it so late
Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

I've used mine about 5 times, and I carry everything in there. After the first time of use it started losing its stiff shape. I wished it held up a little longer. I prefer my pebbled large boroughs, they lose shape as well, but they look better worn in. I think i'm done with saffiano leather, all of my saffiano bags have not aged well.

Oh jeeze. I really thought the saffiano would hold the structure better. Tags are still on mine. I have a few more weeks to decide. Although I know my local fp will act like they are going out of their way to let me return it. They try anything to try and keep you from returning. My local outlet always loved my returns and the SAs bought them for themselves before I even left the store but they closed a few days ago. Does your borough have any corner wear?

I have the mini bar stripe borough in the grey/white, black smooth leather; the vermillion smooth leather 3 zipper medium and the open camel napanil.
The bar stripe was a have to have and I honestly think for a little bag it holds a lot - probably more with one less zipper but it's a fashion statement and I love it. I fit sunglasses, wallet, 4 lipsticks, errand list and coupons, etc. - everything from my medium but I just don't carry that much compared to some. I use it on weekends away as it small and lightweight and fun. Can't wait to take her out this year. Match it up with striped maxi dresses for a really cute look. The vermillion was a great price new but I knew it was one too many zips as well but love that size bag. Now for my favorite, the napanil open simply because it works well for me - I like an open bag with some place for secure items. I love love love the magnetic closure in the middle which is where I put my wallet. It looks like a seamed compartment so I never worry and often forget the wallet when changing out - yikes. The napanil is one of the lightest bags I own as well. All three bags serve a different purpose. The pebble ones are nice in that the leather wears better but far heavier. The napanil seems to come to a nice drape making an otherwise structured bag not so structured looking. As for loosing its structure, I have seen none of that. I just don't care for saffiano leather in these bags - I don't care for the look. I'm a fan of saffiano on a work bag but limit it to a Prada tote or a Tory Burch which I love every bit as much. I don't really want more than 2. I'm a soft leather gal. Hope this helps.
I ordered a borough in Nappa leather in Brick on eBay! I am sooo excited. It's sold out everywhere and even at their JAX warehouse. They had a couple in IR but I was skeptical to get it from there.
I only started buying Coach in Nov. of last year. It was actually the grommet Borough that lured me in although I never actually bought that bag. It just made me stop and look and make a decision to start buying nicer bags for myself. Before that I was content to buy my bags at REI. Anyway, I really love the look of the Borough, but I only bought one mini in black. Now the website only has one style and color listed. Did I miss out, or will there be more in the future? Do I need to run to an outlet? How long does a style usually hang around?

I think the boroughs will phase out. The bag debuted before Vever's takeover, and Coach is trying to go in a different direction...so yeah. If I were you, I would start looking into what designs you like, and choose before they're completely discontinued.
