Burberry Studded Leather Shopper, Olive green, made in China, bought 2 years ago, very stylish. The magnetic closure is weak.


BURBERRY LANGLEY SHOULD BAG, Black, made in Italy, bought 2 years ago, stylish, Some part of the edge leather started to crack.

I'm glad I read this thread, I almost wanted to order a bag from the website. Its very sneaky of them to put "imported", but we don't know where its imported from, they should just put where its made in exactly. I do like some of their leather bags, but if its made in china, then forget it.

I bought the large bridle house check hobo from the Burberry website and the tag says made in Italy. I have noticed that a lot of the nova check totes are made in China with the "Imported" description when shopping online.
The continental wallet that matches my bag is made in Italy as well.

It seems when they put "imported" on the website, it's made in China. Though I have a crossbody bag that's made in China and a haymarket bag that's made in Italy and both are in good condition.

Untill I plan to buy a wallet to match with my bag and saw it made in Vietnam which cost $500-$600 which I've no clue what the company were trying to justify between the two fact. Got me put off buying their things now.

My tote was also made in Italy, my wallet made in Japan

And I'm so surprised to know that my country made small BBR leather products as you said :smile1:

Hate to burst your bubble, but a lot of the "Made in Italy" stuff is still made by Chinese people. To wit:

...Most brands aren’t so straightforward. To please customers looking for the “Made in Italy” label, several luxury companies now have their goods made in Italy by illegal Chinese laborers. Today, the Tuscan town of Prato, just outside of Florence and long the center for leather-goods production for brands like Gucci and Prada, has the second-largest population of Chinese in Europe, after Paris. More than half of the 4,200 factories in Prato are owned by Chinese entrepreneurs, some of whom pay their Chinese workers as little as two Euros ($3) an hour.

It's not the race/nationality of the craftsmen that gets my goat. I just want my stuff to be made in the country of origin. You can hire Chinese or any other races, just make them in England!

Similiarly, if Burberry had exported an entire town of British craftsmen and physically locate them in China, I still wouldn't be happy.

It's not the nationality/race of the perso that irks me, it's the place of anufacturing.
