Dooney and Bourke Collection 2024 | Dooney & Bourke AWL

Today is my Dooney and Bourke collection for 2024. In this collection I have quite a few impressive pieces from the Grafica IT collection and my all-time favorite, Dooney & Bourke AWL. The All Weather Leather collection is some of the BEST made bags, and I can't wait to add another Dooney and Bourke Essex to my AWL collection.

This year I'd love to add more pieces from Hermès like the Birkin size 40, Constance, 24/24 and Bolide. Maybe I'll be bad and get an Hermès Kelly 40! I also recently fell in love with the Chanel Jumbo- so that's kind of a must-have for my collection, along with a Chanel Mini Rectangle and a Chanel Reissue. Aside from those, I'd love to add a few more Fendi Peekaboo bags to my collection along with a Fendi Baguette. Make sure you subscribe to see what I buy this year!

My Dooney & Bourke Essex is one of my favorite bags- do you have a Dooney that you absolutely love or are you new to the brand?

[@Wgangtache8401]

I love Dooney and Bourke Bags and have a Bag I would want to sell. It is a vintage all leather with Brass mechanical attractions.

[@ZaneAnderson1]

Dooney is very much an underrated brand! The AWL is extremely well made. 🦆

[@CalebSnell]

I couldn't agree more- I love my classic AWL pieces!

[@bags_books_and_bowwows]

I definitely feel like I'm babysitting my AWL bags for whoever wants them when I'm gone.

[@CalebSnell]

Right!? It feels like they'll be here long after we're gone!

[@artsandbarts360]

🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 Fabulous Caleb! ……there’s just something so warm, classic, cozy, substantial and heritage about Dooney and Bourke…….this company ‘gets it’ in all facets of luxury and quality decade after decade! You definitely need more pieces, try the Florentine leather ……as well as if you like Disney they have very cool special edition collections ☺

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you so much! And you're so right, I love Dooney & Bourke! I definitely want to add more AWL in the future!

[@ChiGuyLux]

Your D&B collection is fantastic! I know it was hard to part ways with some of them but they went to good homes (I was so close to bidding on one of them 🤦🏻). I love the AWL on these bags (and those 🌈 zippers❤️). Looking to add one to my collection soon…TFS!🦆😊

[@CalebSnell]

Hey ChiGuy! You're right- they all went to very good homes, and that makes me happy! I can't wait to see what Dooney you add to your collection!

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

Beautiful D and B collection ❤😊

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you!!

[@kaylheecarroll3186]

[@luxpetite]

I can see why you love the Essex so much. Beautiful Dooney collection!

[@CalebSnell]

It's such a classic bag- I love it!

[@DeeDee_Bean]

Hi 👋 Caleb you know I’m living for your collection you kept some great pieces. Just think of the fun you will have recreating the collection. Thanks for sharing love 💕 it 👛🛍️🙏🚢🦆

[@CalebSnell]

Haha! I knew this would be your favorite!

[@joshyboy1974]

❤ great video.. my favorite all time Dooney is the small duck 🦆 bag in British tan

[@CalebSnell]

Thanks, Joshy! And great choice- I love the duck bags!

[@rhondamarcelissen2919]

Hi Caleb, I always enjoy watching your video blogs. I to have quite a few of Dooney & Bourke bags. Including the all weather bags. My very first contemporary designer bag was Dooney & Bourke. I still have it, and I just love it. I also have 2 Peter Dooney’s Henry bags. The leather is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for making this video. Hugs from Canada.

[@CalebSnell]

Hi Rhonda! Thank you so much! Dooney seriously makes some of the best bags, and the AWL bags are made to last. I love them! I'd also like to try out one of the Henry bags- I love the designs they used for that line. I hope you're having a great weekend!

[@markalpertlorenzo]

Love the last one! It looks so care free!

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you, Mark! It's seriously one of the best bags, I love it!

[@dcjimr1]

That Essex bag is also one of my favorites that you have. It's practically perfect!

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you! It really is, I absolutely love that bag!

[@FCW75219]

Hi Caleb. I love your DB collection. I’ve been a fan of the DB since I was in high school back in the 90’s. My mother has several DB bags that I bought for her over the years but I never purchased any for myself, until this past Christmas. I have two AWL bags (the Duck Bag and the AWL 3.0 Camera Crossbody 20). Is the new AWL any good? I’ve not carried either one of them yet but I will now that the weather’s getting warmer. I would love any feedback on the new AWL.

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you so much!! Dooney will always have a special place in my heart. And I'm excited to hear you finally got yourself some AWL! The quality is phenomenal. I'm not terribly family with the new AWL, but I could definitely add some to my collection and give a review!

[@octobermoon9]

Such great and fun pieces, Caleb! Thank you for sharing. 🦆♥🦆

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!!

[@ChipChoc00]

LOVE! I just bought a rainbow zipper, black floral Dooney Collins north south bag from eBay - love it!

[@CalebSnell]

That sounds gorgeous! Congrats on your new find!

[@myPursesuitOfHappiness]

Hi Caleb, Your collection is so unique. I love all your fun and beautiful pieces. Also I have always wondered what the “IT” meant and you cleared it up for me. Thanks! TFS xoxo 🤗

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you so much, Ivana! I wish I had some of the bags I sold last year- but I picked up another vintage AWL piece last night that I'll unbox in a few weeks. IT pieces are so fun- I love their whimsy!

[@GiveMeTheLook]

I have had this (cover photo bag) for over 15 years in navy and it’s my fave bag. Definitely in my Top 5 as well . It has holds a lot and always look luxe.

[@CalebSnell]

The Essex is just the perfect bag- top quality and classic design, it doesn't get any better!

[@maryohmaryoh]

I have several awl pieces I almost never wear but I don’t dare part with them because I have some awl-culling regrets. Some of my faves: brown & cedar buckle satchel, Teton drawstring in ivy, navy & cedar, navy & bt camera bag, and a black & bt Equestrian. I have others but those are what I am most apt to carry. Fall tends to be awl season for me.

[@CalebSnell]

Those are all great AWL colors! And I have the same regrets with selling AWL in the past- it's just so hard to part with!

[@TraceyBergum]

Vintage DB is FABULOUS!!! My Essex was in the forest green it was stolen along with my bucket bag in bone, both bags were bought in 1996 (stolen with other bags in 2011) they were my favorite, I wish I still had them. Fun fact....funny now that both those bags retailed for more than my Speedy 30 at that time too. Great collection you have : )

[@CalebSnell]

I'm so sorry to hear about your robbery, that's awful. Dooney AWL are some of the best bags produced, so I'm not surprised they retailed higher than LV at the time! And thank you! I love collecting Dooney, and I just added a couple more pieces of AWL that I'll unbox in a couple weeks!

[@krisabbott6784]

Caleb. I have always loved the Dooney brand . It just reminds me of the hamptons. You are taking me way back.

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you, Kris! And I agree- Dooney is very New England/Preppy vibes!

[@Smilingcats_couture]

🦆 Great video! I didn’t realize you had so much “it” in your collection, love them! I didn’t realize how much leather pieces you sold til I saw what you have left wow! The bone is very classy 🤍

[@CalebSnell]

I have an IT problem lol! It was my MC that I could afford back in college, and I still love collecting it! I know- I hate that I sold all those AWL bags- those are probably my biggest regret from the sales, but I have a couple vintage AWL pieces to unbox in a couple weeks, so I'm working on growing my AWL collection!

[@janisturner2814]

Hi Caleb !! Great collection! I love my Dooneys! I bought one of your Dooneys and take extra special care of it ❤️❤️😊

[@CalebSnell]

Hi Janis! Yay!! I'm glad to hear that you're still loving it! 💕

[@mommymarz]

@8:28 i 💚 your awl essex dooney and bourke & slg’s. 😻 i just found a vintage 1980’s d & b at an antique store i’m having cleaned & conditioned. i’m excited for it to be ready to pick up. the it pieces are adorable looking at them now, but back then i was upset that it looked similar to the multicolore lol.

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you!! And congrats on your new find! Haha, I know what you mean about IT vs MC. I bought IT back in the day because I couldn't afford the MC, and I now I just collect them for fun!

[@sbwright2]

Nice!!! Now I'm on the hunt for an Essex. I can hear myself now..."but hun Caleb made me do it" 😂. I'm also excited to see the fix for DB IT haze.. ❤❤tfs

[@CalebSnell]

Hahaha! I'm happy to be your scapegoat 🤣 You'll love the Essex, it's such a great bag!

[@purebutterflyspirit02]

I have that Dooney and bourke hand bag at the end of this video. I bought it in 1989 it cost me 500 then and in today's market would have been into the thousands equivalent. I've had it still have it and it's vintage . I don't use it but still love that type dooney quality.

[@CalebSnell]

That's wild! Dooney AWL is some of the best made bags!

[@purebutterflyspirit02]

@@CalebSnell I wish Dooney made those again in that quality and I’m looking for a vintage coin purse with the large leather duck .🦆

The Essex holds so many Memories ❤

[@CalebSnell]

It's a fabulous bag!

[@RaquelATX]

Lovely collection. I have one and you made me feel like I should get a new one soon.

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you, Raquel! You definitely should, Dooney makes such great bags!

[@lindap7719]

Uh-oh, now I want a bone color Dooney.😮Your large Essex bag is so so good! My fave in my Dooney collection is my Florentine drawstring in chestnut. The luscious rippled leather looks like chocolate!🍫😋🌻

[@CalebSnell]

You should, Linda! Bone is the perfect warm shade of cream, it goes with everything! And great choice- I love their drawstring bags!

[@5ftNothing]

I love the rainbow zips!! 🦆

[@CalebSnell]

Me too!

[@MyKiltyPleasures]

Yes vintage D&B FTW!!! I have the same Essex bag in my collection as well. I watched your unboxing of the Lockhart last year, do you still have that bag?

[@CalebSnell]

I'm loving the Kilty in your photo btw! Sadly, I sold it in a live sale last year- huge regret- but it's with a good home now!

[@andreabrown3116]

I had a feeling you may have a few regrets...there is always shopgoodwill 😂. Great video !

[@CalebSnell]

Haha- I wish I hadn't sold my Essex Top Handle or the Lockhart- buttttttt... I did get another AWL bag on shopgoodwill last night! The unboxing will be coming soon!

Oooh that Essex! 😍😍😍

Right?! It's so good!

[@CalebSnell]

Yay! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! And I love the idea of getting more Dooney!

[@creamysmoothpopicongod]

Please do more!! I feel like dooney is sooo overlooked. We need more coverage

[@CalebSnell]

I totally agree- we need more Dooney content!

[@beckylou89]

Your Essex is so cute! I have an arrowhead one I use on occasions but the hardware is loose so it generally just gets admired 😂

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you, Becky! And I love the Arrowhead bags, I really need to add one (or many) to my collection. Have you tried reaching out to Dooney for repair?

[@beckylou89]

@@CalebSnell I don't think they cover the UK but I could give it a go! I do also do leather work in my spare time so I could maybe try to fix it 🤔

[@doneshacotton4725]

I personally can not compare the two. Never had a Birkin. But my experience over the last 5 months and grew up stalking the db catalogs my mom and sister used to get. The appeal of the early 2000s and my first 3 bags as of October 2023. BaBy .......Dooney is DOIN' IT!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤IM GETTING OBSESSED. I gotta chill😊 My penrose hobo 25, Denison hobo with the bumpers and the matching wallets and my awl 3.0. Satchel, 3 key chains, i spent less on all that compared to coach and coach outlet over the last two years. The quality, the looks, the compliments, THE AWE❤❤❤❤❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@CalebSnell]

Yess!! Dooney designs and quality are unmatched! I will always have Dooney in my collection. Especially the vintage AWL or Y2K designs- I love them!!

[@teeneeweenee24]

Hi! Which D&B bag would you recommend for an everyday smart casual wear? I always wear navy blue office uniform with some yellow embellishments and I want a bag that is lightweight (not weighing even 1kg)? Pls provide some recs. Thank you and more power to your channel!

[@CalebSnell]

Hi there! I would recommend anything from their Nylon line- they're lightweight, understated and often times they use real gold plating on the hardware for the Nylon collection. And thank you!

[@agentbagreviews]

Omy freaking god I’m so happy right now 🖤

Yasss!! I love Dooney!

[@glendalepaisley9528]

Love my Dooneys, I have several, gifted several. However a lot of my wallets the zipper falls off. Any recommendations?

[@CalebSnell]

I would reach out to Dooney- they used to have a really good repair program!

[@KarinMichelle]

Can you tell me if Dooney & Bourke ever made dresses I found one at the thrift

[@CalebSnell]

They did have a ready-to-wear line for a very brief period. I wish there was more information about it though!

[@ohshedee2020]

I wish there were some free standing D&B stores in canada. Way more attractive then ...coach.

[@CalebSnell]

That would be so cool! We're lucky to have an outlet just 30 minutes away!

[@ohshedee2020]

nice! @@CalebSnell

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Gorgeous bags! I don't own any D&B. As far as I know, they don't have a retail outlet here, nor do they have a presence in the surviving department stores. Sigh! Lovely pieces, I may bet one one day. I don't think they are 'better' than a Birkin, but they are nice in their own way and much, much cheaper! Thank you for the video!

[@CalebSnell]

Thank you, Daniel! They're fantastic bags, you won't be disappointed!

[@miradonfbd]

After losing all my bags in a house fire which included Dooneys from 1975 on, I bought a lot of original Dooneys again maybe 20-25 years ago. I need to get them out and do a video! I don’t know why my IT big zipper pouch got so hazy. It’s been in my drawer since I bought it at Macy’s many years ago. It’s such a flat pouch, I could never figure out what to use it for. I was captivated by the multi colored zipper, actually.

[@CalebSnell]

Yes! I would absolutely LOVE seeing your collection! And it's such a shame that IT gets hazy or yellow- I'm going to do some experiments on an IT bag and see what I can figure out!

[@ErmaJMajor]

Dooney & Bourke is an American luxury leather goods brand founded in 1975 by designer Peter Dooney and entrepreneur Frederic Bourke in Norwalk, Connecticut. Originally a men's supplier of belts, suspenders, and ties, the company now specializes in handbags and small accessories.

[@CalebSnell]

They have such an interesting history!

Thank you, Joe! I seriously love that bag!

[@louisfleurdelis8941]

I’m looking for catalog from Dooney . Do you know of a link that has Dooney catalog for reference?

[@CalebSnell]

I would recommend the vintage groups on Facebook- they have quite a few uploaded, although I wish they had more.

[@louisfleurdelis8941]

I order a duck bag from the Dooney website. The interior suppose to be like a light pink interior that’s what it shows on the video and on the website. The bag I received has a red interior which is I believe maybe an older model. I also order a crossbody bag a month ago and the stitching on the strap are off. The told me they will repaired but I have to paid for the shipping. I don’t know what’s going on with their quality control.

[@JoeyRalston]

Hi! I’m wondering if you have any knowledge of the canvas leather tote with snap removable zipper? If so, what year is it from?

[@CalebSnell]

Hmmm... I'm not sure which model that is. I'm sorry!
