They do have a leather handbag collection. I have 3 of their leather bags, but ever since I started buying US contemporary designer handbags, I never go back to my kiplings again. I do use their luggage, which is lightweight and durable.

Which Designers do you purchase from? Would love to know please. :-)

I mostly buy Rebecca Minkoff, Botkier, and Treesje. I love them all, RM satisfies my desires for variety, Botkier offers functionalities, and Treesje has the best gunmetal hardware! I also own a few Linea Pelle, and LP has the best customer service that I have ever encountered.
 
I've been hearing about Kipling bags forever, seems like. I was out looking for an inexpensive black leather bag with handles and a shoulder strap today and having no luck - and then my eye was drawn to this black Kipling bag, and I love it! I LOVE IT! I have historically been a leather bag woman, but this Kipling "Sugar" bag has convinced me otherwise - so many places to put stuff, lightweight, leather trim, light color lining - and under $70. And my DH gets the monkey. :D It's 420 Denier nylon which is known to be some strong stuff!!!

Nice one, Indiaink! I was in Kipling wonderland in Macy's the other night. Zappos has lots of them too. I'm sure I will buy more. Great for travel/outdoorsy stuff with the fam. :D
 
I have never tried Kipling's leather bags, but I absolutely love their nylon backpack. They are so well made, light and durable. I could throw them into washer and came out clean and as new.
 
ebags is having a 20%/free ship thing right now ... just ordered my True Blue Kipling Sugar. I swear, I am head-over-heels in love with this bag - I love the trapezoid shape and the organization and the lightness of it!

If you sign up for Kipling's e-mail thing, you also get a 20% off promo code. :D
 
I think they're great for those times when you want to just be able to move around without having to worry about your bag (like on vacation or to the beach). As for daily usage though...maybe it's just me but fashionwise...they're not to my tastes ^^;

I can see how they'd be useful though for students who need to carry around heavy textbooks and don't want bags that weigh a ton by themselves.
 
I love my fuschia Kipling Defea--handbag to crossbody in seconds. Love all the pockets (back, front, and inside). If it came in leather--I'd be all over that version too!
I'm glad you're thrilled with your new purchase OP! :flowers:
