Agree. Does not look like rust to meUgh I have that seasonal disorder that hits really hard in the fall. It’s where I want to see and believe bags like this are really rust. And like I don’t already have a few project bags. SMH
Help me friends. Somebody buy the bag, rehab it and tell me it was not rust. Problem solved.

Will def have time by this weekend for a photo opif not sooner. Just my two rusties. May have to throw in my HG saddle Shopping Bag and BT Carrier, for, well, just because …
Thank you @Lake Effect, I found it !Hi, it is on the main Coach forum page, under the Normal Threads. Sometimes it is far down … but I thought it had been pinned to the top recently. Guess not. FYIHere’s a link.

Great. One time I looked for it and was on the next page!
I’m feeling some russet suede. Could be a good place to start.
Welcome Autumn Equinox and boy, the midAtlantic got the memo. Real honest to goodness fall weather today. So I start out with a russet Berk Zip today. And I love the hint of rust in the late day sun. I know, the light is low, will make sure to get them earlier in the day. Also showing one of my favorites, BT Oliver that I was in most of the week.
Thank you for posting this beautiful bag. Early in the hot, hot summer, I got a Berkeley duffle in russet and succeeded in forgetting about it. I will be getting that out to use later this weekend!
Please do! I have to hold myself off from collecting Berks! I know what you mean. And this summer to boot, right?
Style 9010 Berkeley duffle in russet suede.
Ok, so I NEVER cared for the color russet/rust and dang if you did not just change my mind for me.
The low, setting sun had a lot to do with that came out; it is honestly like BT with a hit a rust under most lighting conditions. If you search for my posts in WCBAYCT, I am sure I snapped it in true lighting. Edited, make that the Holiday Theme Thread. Which probably buried!Ok, so I NEVER cared for the color russet/rust and dang if you did not just change my mind for me.
And, I'm sorry
!I have seen bags of many colors advertised, all labeled BT, but not owning anything in BT, I cannot be a judge. There is a warm light brown which I like and also a warm dark brown which I love. I believe that is called mahagony, but not sure. I have looked at the color swatch pictures in the catalogs, but they are no big help. Often when I look at the rehab pics, the original color is a poor shadow of the final result. In this case I do not know if the result is due to the moisturizing of the leather, or the subtle influence of the "lotions" used.The low, setting sun had a lot to do with that came out; it is honestly like BT with a hit a rust under most lighting conditions.

Coach used the names British tan and mahogany over many years and the dyes were different in different years. You can't really compare one BT to another or one mahogany to another. I like the versions that have some red in them.
Love me some suede rug slouch here!
Good point. And when you get a BT that is very distressed, then rehab with a variety of conditioners, and that puts the comparison off too.
eta, I need to update the BT family!
