Admiring the details of my whipstitch Dakotah while sitting in bad Thanksgiving Eve traffic.

I would love to see a pic from the front, if that is possible :heart:
I am sorry to hear you are sitting in that. I learned that lesson circa 1987 travelling southbound on the NJ turnpike. About two years ago I was asked by the owner of the company to work in one of our offices the day before Thanksgiving, that would have been a really long ride even on a non-holiday. As I was politely saying no, my mind was screaming "Are you out of your mind?".
 
It's perfect because it was made for the bag. This was Vevers first style, if I remember correctly. I was blown away at all the details. The only weird thing is that the hangtags are blank. Vevers thought they were so iconic that people didn't need to see the name to know it was Coach. I would have gotten more colors if they had made them in the regular size.
I love all of the Coach history that you share! :flowers:

I wish that "edge" would come back. A mix of that plus Originals would be perfect. Very little catch my eyes these days!
 
I'm glad you had something beautiful to look at. I rode with my DD, and oldest GDD to Oakland Wednesday morning. My DD planned to return home before 1:30pm to beat traffic. We headed back around 1:15pm and traffic was crazy! The window closed early because lots of people must have only worked a half day, and others were taking off for the holiday.

Thanks RN :). I was so busy with last minute stuff that I did not think to check traffic until 10 minutes before. Enjoy your Thanksgiving with your family :)

Just took this pic of it from the front :smile:. It’s hard to capture the color. It’s an unstructured flap bag (no secure closure, just a flap over the top).

Beautiful bag Minda! Is it heavy when empty? I have found that Coach went thru a phase were they seem to add stuff to make their bags even heavier years ago. :nuts:

Happy Thanksgiving to you and all the Coachies :heart:

Thank you ATB :). I don’t think it’s heavy. Using a kitchen scale :lol:, it’s about 1 1/2 lb empty. You are right that some Coach bags are heavier than others depending on the year and style. This leather feels sturdy to me but it’s not heavy. I hope you have a great Thanksgiving weekend too :). (Missing our friends GL and SBD and wishing them well).

Some Coach bags are incredibly heavy! You should avoid most bags from the 2006 Legacy collection. All the brass hardware of those bags made them almost impossible to carry without getting a very sore shoulder. This bag, even with the chain detail, isn't heavy at all.
