I sold a lot of my high end bags and purchased several Rebecca Minkoff instead and couldn’t be happier. Still has the style without the super high price. I’m happy. ❤

[@lindap7719]

Now in addition to Loewe, & Polene, we have your seal of approval for the more affordable Rebecca Minkoff. Many thanks! 🌻

[@starchildstorm354]

It is great to watch this review of Rebecca Minkoff bags. I bought and been buying RM bags, I love the leather quality, the designs are quite modern, but quite classy, the price point- full price is still very affordable, but they always have a sale and some of the sale prices are actually the same as your price estimate to make their bags. I felt like Rebecca Minkoff is quite honest with her products, and even if her fashion brand is in the level of say Kate Spade, Tory Burch and Coach, her handbags are good quality for the low price point, and that as a consumer who will never spend thousands of dollars for a bag, I really appreciate.

[@dillinrivera91]

The Rebecca Minkoff Edie flap has been my favorite bag for the past 2 years which is why I own 4. I even sold my YSL LouLou and Gucci Dionysus because I didn’t love and enjoy them as much. Great video👜🫶🏽

[@tanner.leatherstein]

Absolutely, they used really great leather in this bag. Thank you for watching! 😁

[@Blake3_3]

I appreciate your comment, because I've been exploring her bags, but wasn't sure about the quality. This helped me make the decision to purchase!

[@tanner.leatherstein]

I'm delighted to hear that my comment was helpful in your decision-making process! Thank you for your trust and support!

[@4378200]

Yes indeed and when I find them on sale...it's a wow

[@Ddonna734]

I own 16 Rebecca Minkoff Edie bags and I think about 6 MAC bags, 2 Darrens, 2 Love bags and 2 Quilted Affairs. I have a few others of hers too. I also have other brands as well (Portland, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, YSL) and I just love RM’s style and quality so much. I’m very passionate about bags. ❤

[@marshawilliamson8602]

I have 3 Minkoff bags over 10 years old and they have held up beautifully!

[@betalove012]

Mine as well. I like her bags

[@mytokajones8374]

I recently found her bag at a thrift store. I’ve first noticed the leather and the craftsmanship from across the room. Way before I even put my hands on it. Once I finally was able to touch it I knew it was a fabulous, well-made leather bag. I had never heard of Rebecca Minkoff. I looked up her website. I was so happy to have found such a beautiful well-made bag for under $10. Apparently they weren’t aware of it either therefore, the low price. It is now my favorite bag. I have a collection of used leather bags because I love leather bags thanks to my mother. I’m always on the hunt at a thrift store for a fine leather bag. Thank you for this video. Actually thank you for your channel.

[@user-kr1zm6uf7j]

Thank you for this inspection 😊I was debating to buy or not , now definitely know it

[@TomatoeBasil]

I'm new to your channel so I don't know if you've ever done something like this, but I want to see a dissection of a poorly made cheap bag for comparison to all of these higher end luxury bags.

[@sarahbritt1234]

I love Rebecca Minkoff's bags! I have 6 different ones that I've bought over the years and all of them have held up so well. It's my favorite contemporary brand due to some edgier looking options and multiple hardware choices

[@finerwomanful]

The leather and construction on older Minkoff bags are waaaay better than the new ones, especially the original morning after bags. I'm still a fan of the new styles though for the price point, especially the Edie Maxi.

[@tanner.leatherstein]

Might have to find an old Minkoff bag then but I'm not sure where I can find one 😅 but definitely, love the leather they used here!

[@Mrstriplejranch]

@@tanner.leathersteinPoshmark has plenty!

[@d.y.e3803]

Rebecca Minkoff bags are excellent ones for the price point. I've been buying them for over a decade. A week or so ago, I bought the Darren Top Zip Shoulder bag in a pebbled leather and it's beautiful. Plus, it's black leather with black hardware. The shoulder strap also extends to a crossbody bag with plenty of length to sit comfortably on the body. Thumbs up! Greetings from Los Angeles

[@chav4666]

Can’t believe you haven’t done a Tory Burch bag review. Please do one. I have several in my collection but have always wondered if they’re worth the price.

[@cynthia_els]

I have two Edie bags and always wondered if the leather was good qualiy. Great video. Thank you!

[@joycoloma976]

My husband bought me my first good quality leather bag 15 years ago: Rebecca Minkoff’s Morning After bag! I own 5 of her bags now and just love them! Also I love watching and learning from your videos!

[@mwedzi]

Thanks for shedding light on what the M.A.B. stands for! I've been wondering that. Hmm, morning after, huh ... lol

[@mistressqueen5482]

We need furla and pinko deconstruction!!!

[@averageamericangirl6819]

I love your videos. Keep them coming. I learn so much.

[@tanner.leatherstein]

Thank you so much! 🙏

[@jeanineireland]

I bought a RM wallet about 7 yrs ago. I've used it every single day since and it's still holding up. It's indestructible. I love it.

[@lanaava]

Thank you. I was wondering why their bags was not as popular as all the overpriced bags. I find their bag beautiful. Great review as always ❤

[@hiawathia81]

I do like Rebecca Minkoff bags. Glad to hear your analysis.

[@blueheart927]

It would be super interesting to see you do Mcm bags. But I mean a leather one, I feel like they have really great real leather despite the hype about their visetos (coated canvas). Although a comparison between their canvas and the LV canvas would be super interesting as well.

[@xiaohonglong]

I love your reviews. Great job thank you so much. Can you please do some French brands like Jerome Dreyfus’s or Lancel. May be Longchamp? I live in France and would appreciate this a lot. ❤

[@verrenyeux]

Beara Beara is a pretty small brand but very popular in some circles - would love to see a review! their leather shop is reportedly in Bolivia which I think sets it apart from most of the brands that go to Spain and Italy for their leathercraft.

[@ingridkiss3402]

Thanks for the video and the comments. I'm yet to purchase a RM bag. I love the designs but have read some concerning comments online so very happy to hear most commentators are happy with the quality.

[@tanner.leatherstein]

You're welcome! I'm glad my video has been helpful. I hope you find the perfect RM bag that meets your expectations! 😊

[@pramilamendes4361]

Hi Tanner, can you please do a video on Dooney and Bourke Alto and Florentine leather? I love these handbags and the price points are great. Thanks in advance.

[@isb5772]

Love your videos I own a Rebecca Minkoff and love that bag. Thank you for your videos. I hope you remain unbiased because alot of KZbin channels sell themselves to brands and we can no longer trust some influencers

[@phantira29]

Thanks for your review once again.

[@thee_nakikke]

I own several RM bags. All of mine a pre-loved and the condition of all is great. They really do stand the test of time and get better with age.

[@el3yonel7azeneh89]

I have always loved my Rabecca Minkoff bags

[@Jennjenn421]

Ive had hwr bags for at least 10 years! Great and reasonably priced

[@rhondamarcelissen2919]

Very interesting. Interesting also to read the other comments. Thank you 🙏 soo much for everything.

[@MarieJesne]

Have you reviewed Givenchy yet? In particular the "pepe" crinkled leather and the "sugar" goatskin... I'm not sure if the brand made up those names or what they're actually supposed to mean but would be interested to see how the quality compares to others in the same price range.

[@leide4688]

Good 👍 to give some credit to brands and designers who deserves it and who delivers great products. Make this and others like this be the winners of the future customer 😊

[@tanner.leatherstein]

Absolutely, I think leather consumer need more brands who deliver quality leather and craftsmanship without the brand prestige so more of us can enjoy great leather without breaking the bank. I really appreciate what Rebecca Minkoff is doing here. Thank you for your support

[@serenityscapes]

Okay. I'm buying this bag now.

[@agentbagreviews]

Would love to see a dissection of a Kurt Geiger bag!

[@lefish5277]

Me too!

[@StonesandSparkles]

I think he had done a video about this brand in the past

[@agentbagreviews]

@@StonesandSparkles thank you! I found it and I am happy to see what he said about cause now I won’t buy one 😅

[@DenisUSA]

this is a great feeling leather brand. also I love the men's brand by her brother Uri Minkoff with the same good leather stuff

[@jessyandthebags]

Hi! I love my RM bags. Can you please consider Dooney and Bourkes Florentine leather bags? I would love your take on these since they’re very classic and popular.

[@biboebbs624]

second this !

[@biologyfrg]

Completely and unrelated comment on this video: you have a burgundy crossbody bag (with front slip pocket) in the background around your shoulder height? Why isn't this available on your store website? Where can I buy that bag? I absolutely love the color!!!

[@sophiamargarettecaagbay1951]

Could you please try to deconstruct Songmont? 🙏

[@coraelizabethconteh6683]

Could you please do a maje bag please? Maybe the "M Bag" ❤

[@TrustGodandDoGood]

I love Rebecca Minkoff products.

[@dikshadalal9450]

Please review aspinal of london bags particularly mayfair bag.

[@ZGreenGaming]

These look nice and i did check other bag and they do look very similar to Chanel for a fraction of the price ... nice!

[@tanner.leatherstein]

I'm glad you appreciate the style and it's great to hear that. Thank you

[@slyk9413]

Could you please make review videos on leather bags by The Bridge and Coccinelle?

[@Sebastian-ft1rm]

We need a Tory Burch review! :)

[@Daisyhaxha]

I have one of rebecca but not the leather very good quality 😊

[@dominicsantiago6506]

Have you ever dissected a Tory Burch Lee Radziwill purse. I'm thinking of getting one for mt wife.

[@dimdull]

I used to love Rebecca Minkoff, Boktier bags.

[@tracyh2297]

Love the Edie bag and own several. Was confused by the title of the video, I thought Rebecca Minkoff as a brand has been around for a while, it’s not a new company……

[@mamad5686]

The title doesn't say that. 🤔

[@safaenafs4682]

Sir, I received a natural real cowhide from Morocco as a gift. Unfortunately, my husband couldn't handle the smell. It is a piece of art and statement. What should I do to moderate the smell please please please 🙏? Thank you

[@dearmarie784]

Goyard please!!

[@Stryker2]

How critical are you of single crafter brands vs outsourced brand? Would you be willing to review a small crafter’s product?

[@lefish5277]

Can you review Min & Mon?

[@lizasoliman723]

would you sooner buy Marc Jacobs or Rebecca Minkoff?

[@LordYakkmyster]

No music or quieter music 😊

[@tanner.leatherstein]

thank you 🙏

[@Andrew-en7vc]

Can you review Tory Burch Kira bag.

[@tanner.leatherstein]

I reviewed a Tory Burch bag made in saffiano leather before and didn't like it. But I'll check this one out. Thank you for your suggestion!

[@rpr8128]

Have you done leatherology?

[@JRspeaking]

You're sure RM didn't sponsor this video?

[@Divinenubian]

I thought her nlnags where vegan leather? I like her bags 😊

[@finerwomanful]

You may be thinking of Stella McCartney

[@redblacklife]

Yep love Rebecca Minkoff. Sadly they wear over time and handles are the point where prone to wear.

[@Cstil18]

Leather is cruel 😢 go 🌱

[@lefish5277]

Vegan leather doesn’t last nearly as long and produces more toxins in the environment. Respectfully, shut up

[@marksayampanathan6517]

RM knowingly donates a lot of money to a nonprofit that is currently a defendant in multiple US judicial cases related to human trafficking. This nonprofit is banned from operating in Germany and many other countries. I won’t be supporting her business.

[@smokinokin66]

RM does not even own the company anymore. She sold it in 2021 or 2022.

[@ulala9898]

What is the name of the non-profit?

[@user-ky9ec9lg4h]

Love the@ *amzrepo*bag

[@SamanthaSalqado]

A very wise choice. recommended to you uzbagx
