I bought a really worn Bleeker bag, the style that is the smallish brief size. It could pass for gray because of the wear but the interior bits tell me is is black
Here is my recent addition to my 9303 Bleeker satchel collection in grey (G0D) posed next to the one I thought to be dark grey but is instead faded black (F9D). Just for comparison purposes.

How are you feeling? I hope everything is going well with your recovery.
Thanks for asking; surgery went well and I am also doing well after a chest port was put in earlier this week. Chemotherapy starts next week :shocked: for twelve weeks. I plan on breathing in, breathing out, right foot, left foot. I do feel like I am well prepared as to what to expect and have a lot of support :tup:
Let’s see what I end up bidding on (or posting haha) when brain fog hits.
Seriously though, I keep reminding myself how quickly 12 weeks can go!

I am so glad that your surgery went well. My sister had radiation treatments and she has come through to the other side and is doing great. It is extremely important to have a positive attitude and a great support team to help you through the rough spots. Twelve weeks will go by in a flash. If you ever need to talk (Coach or anything your heart desires) we are here. Now no bidding on the Winnie, if it reappears.
 
I love the look of it, I have kind of had my eye on some, but I am afraid it maybe a little too vertical/north/south for my taste, but man what a gorgeous backpack.

Hi there. I recently purchased both the British tan and black in this handle backpack style. You are right about it being a tall bag, but it’s too pretty to pass up. I put a felt organizer in the bottom of it and I’ll be using it for the 1st time this week - I’m so excited! I’m still waiting on the black one to arrive, but I’ll post a pic of the British tan one here.

Yes, I have this bag in Black, British Tan and Mahogany. I love mine. I like the options of having the handle and also being able to wear it as a backpack.
I purchased a black one last month. It was between that one and the larger daypack 9791. I’m glad I went with this one because it’s so unique looking, and I haven’t seen one before. I have to do a little stitching by the turnlock area, other than that the bag is in amazing shape. And I like that it carries higher on my back, instead of dropping down.

Another color question. I know it's so hard. Bag is enroute, so I don't have any up close and personal photos. Seller called this "burgundy" in one part of the descrption and "mahogany" in another part of the description. It also refers to a "red" strap. Does this look like burgundy or mahogany? Even though I'd prefer burgundy for resale value, I'm happy either way, because I think it's a beautiful bag and I've never had one of this style.

That looks like mahogany to me. Such a gorgeous color and bag!

What style bag is that?
 
Hello, looking for some opinions (at your convenience). TIA

I was wondering if perhaps there was a typo on the 1992 Coach catalog, that shows the Charlotte satchel, and in the description says detachable and adjustable 45" strap.

I have one and the strap yes is detachable and 45" but not adjustable. There are not that many out there to compare, I found only one other that also has the same strap, not adjustable.

Binocular bag. :smile:
what color did this bag end up being?


I think I need to stop collecting. The green is reading more Kelly in this pic but it’s more of a jade (?). I was eyeing a luxury brand bag but then I look at these. Great leather and classic styles!
such a gorgeous collection! i have the black backpack too! I really like it, and it seems to hold quite a bit.

And do my eyes spy a Winnie?!?!?!?!?!

Hi KiltyR45,

Thank you for the compliment. Yes I have a black and a red painted Winnie. I know there is controversy with painted vs non-painted restored Coach bags. The reseller did a good job restoring the red one so it doesn’t really bother me.
