Happy Saturday night! I’m i
Im here in Manhattan and I went to Hudson Yards and took a video and several pictures. It was amazing!! As you ride up the escalator you see the left side of the wall covered with bags on shelves up to the ceiling!! They have a little plaque about the bags in display with several of that same bag. I have a 30 second video and 17 photos. What’s the best way to post them?That’s so cool! My step son will be entering his senior year of college this fall at Kent State in Ohio. He’s been working for 3 different Coach outlets since he was 18 and he’s such a great salesman as well as rep for the company. He hopes to have a career with them as well. I will definitely take as many pictures as I can and share them with all of you! Thank you so much for the “chats” about this topic.
You'll have to upload the video to a video site like youtube. Then post the link here.
The photos can be uploaded to this thread by using the button to the right of "post reply" labeled "upload a photo."
I loved walking the High Line & seeing the wall of bags at Hudson Yards!
I'm back looking again lol It is just so cool how the trim is different! My guess from the swatches is putty trim on saddle. Just a guess. Just for fun.Twins! I've never been able to pin down the color of mine. It might be Putty, or Saddle. The trim around the flap could be Tabac, or Putty.
It's one-of-a-kind (as many of these NYC bags are), and I love it too!

Thanks for the instructions . I'll have to see if my son can help me with the video later today. Here’s the pictures....all of the bags appeared to be in unused condition except for one-it’s a rehab all of us would love to work on! will post additional reply—only able to attach 10 photos.
Super posting job! Love this! Thank you!
ETA, I enjoy that fact that while these bags are behind glass for visitors to enjoy, many of these bags are being rehabbed and enjoyed by us (and those we pass them on to ) on a daily basis

LOVE! These bags are so amazing! I love the charm you have on yours too and I have been admiring your two-tone beauty for awhile!
The colors in the photos look more like Putty but as I've mentioned before, those vintage tan and light brown colors are really confusing. I had a Tabac bag and it was darker and more of a brown tone.
Great pictures, thanks!
I've NEVER seen a bright green City Bag, and the color isn't in any of the 1987 catalogs. I wonder if it's been dyed?
VintageIsBest, I enjoyed looking at your photos so much!
I wish Coach would commission someone to put together an illustrated book highlighting their archival collection. It could be an eightieth anniversary project. I’d buy it.

Beautiful! I think that is taupe. I am currently rehabbing a Madison in that color. I love that style too.So, here is my latest photo of my Classic Shoulder Bag. I've tried to figure out the color, but I'm not sure. Saddle? Can someone please help? It looks slightly darker in person but this is pretty accurate. I added a pic of the creed for sort of a date range idea.
I LOVE this bag!
Or actually maybe it is putty? Or tabac? I think tabac is darker though. Saddle I believe has more yellow.

I have the same bag in the same color. It looks like the Saddle swatch in this picture, lighter and more yellowy than another Saddle bag I have.

The back side on mine (the suede) looks closer to Putty, but the front side is more yellow/golden than any Putty I've seen. That's why I'm guessing Saddle, but who knows?
You're right about Tabac, it's usually darker brown than the trim on mine. It's probably Putty.
I wondered that too. In fact a couple of them look recolored to me.
