This actually has nothing to do with outlets. Canvas bags tend to have their handles wrapped like this even if the straps are leather (clear plastic sleeve). Most don't come with dust bags either. This latter point seems to change seasonally. The minimal packaging on canvas and nylon totes (excluding Ella bags) makes them that much easier to fake. The plastic tag is fine on this.

Please don't use dust bags and packaging as a starting point for authenticity. These shouldn't be considered until after a bag is authenticated. Exception of course is if thepackaging is especially bad. Many retailers retag bags. I know Bloomingdale's does this a lot.

In addition to the bolded part I think it was discussed on another thread to not divulge too much information about details that could help those creating counterfeit pieces. It just complicates things for authenticators when superfakes begin to pop up. Also, agree with bags being retagged that's normal for all retailers.

By sample , do you mean it wasn't available for sale ? Here are some close ups of the hardware..

Exactly. This looks like a sample that was never for sale at retail. It possibly went straight to outlets. My memory is a bit fuzzy but these weren't put out for sale because the leather was peeling off on the corners for most of them.

In any case, this looks authentic to me.

Hi All

I was wondering if anyone could tell me how a Tory Burch Britten Combo Cross-Body bag (or any similar size crossbody or clutch in the same leather) wears over time, particularly if it tends to sag or lose its shape. I'm tossing up between that in 'French Gray' and a Kate Spade Cedar Street Cami, which is saffiano black/pebble (or potentially both at this rate!).

I won't really wear it as a crossbody, probably more as a clutch.

Any advice would be appreciated

Thanks!

I'd go with the KS Cami - the quality of their Cedar Street line (as well as the rest of their bags/wallets/accessories) is impeccable. I've personally never faced any quality issues or concerns with KS whereas with TB I've had a fair few, although that's just my experience. My sister has the Cami and it's great as a clutch as well as a crossbody, not to mention the saffiano leather is durable and extremely low maintenance. Let us know what you end up choosing!

Thank you! That's actually really good advice.

In the end, I bought both! I figured the colours were different enough to justify it (I have managed to justify some truly ridiculous bag choices of late). Plus I find an awesome team on the particular TB I was looking at - theoutnet had it at half price and then another 20% off with a promo code...too good to refuse clearly!

Based on your advice though, I'll inspect the TB carefully - luckily theoutnet has a good returns policy

I took advantage of the additional 30% off sale and purchased the Ivy Patent Tote in red (though I'd sworn off patent leather long ago)! I was deciding between the Ivy Patent Tote and the Perry Tote, which I also liked a lot. I was a little nervous since there aren't a lot of reviews for this one vs the overall positive reviews for the Perry Tote so I hope I made the right decision. The sales associates all said the Ivy and I do really like the red. I also used the $50 gift card, which made the bag much more reasonable. The tote is really pretty.

Can anyone tell me if I'm correct in noting that the Fleming has come in Magenta and Bright Fuchsia and that these two ARE different colors? I am usually great at determining differences in shades of the same color, and the Magenta seems to be a duller dark pink with the Bright Fuchsia being bright with a bluish undertone. QUOTE="littlerock, post: 20016189, member: 51383"]Feel free to keep the general chat, and day to day catching up, in this thread!

Hello, new here!
When would TB's next release of bags be? I'm after a new tote but nothing currently grabs me. I with they had a saffiano leather version of the Gemini tote!
