What bags do you consider to be "stealth wealth"?

[Sunshine mama]

Too high end and recognizable. Discount grocery store or bookstore.

I have these! I'm pleased that I have a billionaire's vibe!

Aspinal of London.. I believe most in my area have no clue about this brand and their beautiful bags/accessories.

For me I would say Valextra. No obvious branding, amazing quality and like no one in the US has ever heard of them. Wish they’d do more smooth leather tho.

Asprey and Launer.

Delvaux

Stealth wealth means under the radar and no/minimal logos showing.

I like having quality but not obnoxious logos (and not the same thing everyone and their brother has). I have bags from Smythson and the Row that are pretty stealth. The Row bag is even designed that the tiny embossed lettering is supposed to be held against your body, not facing out. Most of my collection is pretty stealth and you’d really have to be in the know — Mansur Gavriel, Mulberry Bayswater, Saint Laurent Sac Du Jour.

I get compliments because people have no idea what it is (people tend not to compliment “louder” designer bags because they know what it is). The only bag I have that is king of loud and ubiquitous is my Gucci soho disco. I keep wanting to buy something more ostentatious and recognizable but stealth is what grabs my attention as far as bags.

The Row.

Aigner Munich, Jil Sander, Bally, Lancel, Smythson - a lot of below-the-radar Italian brands like Gianni Conti. Quality, practical, no bling or screaming logos, designed to age well ...

Delvaux.

The Row and Valextra.

Great thread and I'd have to say Hermes, Valextra, Delvaux, and The Row.

I think most people in the U.S. wouldn't be able to identify Delvaux, Valextra, or Moynat. Those would be my guesses.

But maybe I'm wrong. I don't know all the people in the U.S., although I suspect DH's family may include most of them.

Delvaux, Moynat, Launer, Asprey, Aspinal of London, some Celine bags, Valextra,

Delvaux and Moynat

I see a lot of Delvaux, Moynat & Valextra in these discussions, and I totally agree. Is there a reason Fauré Le Page and Moreau aren't mentioned nearly as much?

Is the quality of FLP/Moreau lower than those first three, or is there simply less brand awareness?

Just got my first bespoke from Mila Jito … it’s stunning. Lili is amazing and so great to work with. Her craftsmanship, unique designs and collaboration with clients I think is the ultimate under the radar luxury!
