[@catherined7545]

I own older Dooney bags, mostly their Florentine leather, and they are beautiful, high quality, bags. Have not purchased a Dooney in years, so can't speak to their current quality. I also own several Coach bags, both boutique and outlet. Obviously the boutique bags are better quality, but I have no complaints about my outlet bags. I'm also not afraid or worried when I carry my Coach & Dooney bags, as opposed to my LV bags. I carry them with joy in my heart, because I love them so much, and am not worried they might get a scratch, stain, or God forbid water mark. Also, I think Coach's SLGs are better quality and value. That's my 2 cents, for what it's worth. 😊

I think that’s exactly right. I have Coach bags as old as 40 years that still look great. Particularly if you stick with their leather options, they are quite hard-wearing. I can’t speak to their current customer service, but when my briefcase was damaged a few years ago, they did the repair for free and charged $20 for the return shipping. Given that an exterior D-ring attachment had to be replaced, you couldn’t see any sign of repair at all. If I see someone with a coach bag, I assume they have taste and common sense. 😂

LV at least is BEGINNING to catch the hint that the shut up and just buy our stuff mangled or not tactic is no longer working and customers across product lines are demanding more and shunning for the greedy price increases and insults(aspirational). If you want to charge us an arm And a leg then the product needs to match the premium price tag.

[@sammiecheco6239]

So I’m gonna go deep and I’m going to say because I have experienced some family loss this year and the past year, that anything material that brings a smile to your face can be considered luxury whether it comes with a hefty price tag or not. Price and affordability is subjective to different people in different areas and different walks of life. Having said that, I’ve never owned Chanel or Hermes, but I have owned quite a bit of Coach in my day, and there hasn’t been one time I’ve opened a package that it hasn’t brought a smile to my face. At this time of my life, THAT … IS luxury.

Amen. Wish you much strength. I'm thrilled with my recent Coach purchases. I was able to buy an additional chain strap with the bag without losing sleep over the price. Once it arrived the joy increased exponentially.

I have bought from nearly all the big designer houses (Hermes, Chanel, Dior, LV, Bottega, Fendi, etc.) and I also own three Coach bags, the most recent one being the Quilted Tabby 26. I LOVE my new Quilted Tabby. I have five Chanel bags (four of them classic flaps) and no longer feel safe wearing them out, so I bought the Quilted Tabby since it gives off a similar vibe. Turns out I love it even more because I don't need to be precious with it and the leather is buttery smooth. If people like me who own Chanel flaps are buying this bag, and people who could never afford a Chanel bag are buying this bag, Coach is hitting that perfect sweet spot where different types of consumers are buying their products.

[@AnUrbanGypsy]

It could be argued that the delicate nature of the Chanel classic flap is what makes it a luxury, in contrast to Coach having better functionality. Both good leathers but one is delicate for an occasional wear bag and the other is supple and soft, yet hardy for a great day-to-day bag. Luxury is usually something you don’t have or use often, due to its high expense.

[@jayceeb3142]

I was gagged when I went into a coach OUTLET, yes OUTLET and the leather felt so good, way better than LV. I went into LV for a backpack and I was treated very poorly, not even acknowledged. I walked out with nothing. Went to the coach outlet the following week just to look around, gagged at the amazing quality.

[@Neetabeeta1972]

Coach was very passé and cheap feeling and looking in the late 90's to early 2000's I want to say. Then around 2015 with new creative director they reinvented themselves and I've been addicted since then. I have Chanel, Gucci, LV, Chloe, and other "luxury" bags but my coach bags are my go to...I feel comfortable and safe carrying them at all times. This is true for Coach retail only IMO and the leather versions not the canvas and logo stuff. Although the canvas is good quality it just reeks of that cheap late 1990’s-2000’s Coach that I hated. Coach is definitely higher than Michael Kors level.

[@hopeseymore5038]

Coach outlet bags are coded with an F in the serial number. Those are like Michael Kors. Coach Boutique bags are of a different quality. I'd personally rather buy 10 Coach bags of different styles than waste money on a single bag. So, I think if you want "Many" bags of great quality Coach works. They had 10 years of WTF, but they found their way back.

[@jasonpenn3694]

I recently purchased Coach bags and shoes for my wife and daughters, and they absolutely love them. My wife has an old Coach backpack that she uses every day and treats like a $20 bag, but it's incredibly durable. Despite being at least ten years old, it still looks great. I must say, when you buy from a luxury brand like Coach, you receive fantastic customer service from their stores or online. I highly recommend Coach products. I know a lot of people focus on discounted bags, but it is nice to have great customer service. And they do not cost as much as a small car.

Same with me. My Chanel bags aged super fast. I have several Coach vintage bags I bought on Ebay and they look ageless. One is the small convertible belt bag and must be over 20 years old and no loss of color, no scuffs and hardware looks great. It really makes you rethink what luxury should be.

For the longest time, Coach wasn't appealing to me... it seemed kind of ghetto to be honest. Then I started watching those leather review videos from Tanner Leatherstein on KZbin and was completely captivated by this man ripping high-end bags apart to see what we're really paying for. Over and over these ultra "high-end" brands underperformed on quality and carried exorbitant price tags. It was a reality check. To this day I don't believe Coach has performed poorly in his product testing. In fact, Coach is so confident in their products they now voluntarily send him bags to analyze. It took a minute to breakdown my bias against Coach, but I'm now working with an open mind. I'm buying and gifting them now and it's been a remarkably pleasant experience. I was wrong and I'm happy to admit that.

[@stephaniec4766]

Vintage COACH, early 1990's was a brand that if you know, YOU KNOW. What I would consider "quiet luxury". Excellent leather craftsmanship with a great history. Apart from the hangtag that said COACH, (if you knew the brand), you recognized the styles and knew it was Coach. My very first "luxury" bag was the COACH Wallis. Not Willis, Wallis. It was a simple all leather, dark navy crossbody half moon flap bag (postman's lock) with a back slit pocket, all brass hardware. Made in the USA. I still have it to this day. My next 4 Coach bags were all made in the USA. Fast forward to early 2000's when Coach switched gears and started plastering their "C" logo everywhere and suddenly production was moved to China. They LOST me as a customer and I never shopped Coach again. Whoever took over back then, ruined the brand (to me) with quirky logos that catered to teen-somethings equating the brand to Michael Kors which I detest. Coach had lost their way. They should go back to their roots, bring production back to the USA and get RID of the "C" logo

I bought the coach Selena Grace bag in red brand spanking new and I still cherish it to this day. It was after I hit a huge milestone at work. I saw the bag before I ever even knew it was Selena’s. That was just a huge bonus.

Purchased Brooklyn 39 full price. Certain new drops sell out quickly if you wait. The Rowan satchel in leather is gorgeous. I love my Speedy bags but the Empriente is so expensive now. The Rowan in leather is a great alternative. Enjoyed the video.

Coach is making a come back! I bought the soft tabby in CC denim, and it is super cute! I love the quality, they always arrive in factory packaging and the leather on the pillow quilted bags are so buttery. Love the quality vs price.

I LOVE COACH...its a quality HANDBAG..❤❤❤❤

[@missswiss7538]

I have one bag (tote willow) purchased last year and I'm very happy with the quality and design... I have Chanel and Prada too, but this one is my every day bag for the office.

[@Laurenlilly902]

Dacob!! This video made me bust out one of my vintage coach bags to carry this week!!! Thank you ❤

[@jhiros]

I love the Rogue in the soft pebbled leather it is gorgeous! I also, love the new quilted tabby, the leather and craftsmanship is stunning. I also have the traditional “luxury” brands and am here to say Coach is definitely showing up and giving back to this community.

[@Rachelleluluful]

I love Coach! The quality is fantastic. I only shop the retail boutique. Not the outlet. I feel like I’m getting away with something at their prices. Lol PS I love Winnie B. Glad yall are friends. Of course!!! Cuz you’re both dope AF! I think you would love the coach Rogue in all leather cuz it doesn’t have any logo except on a tiny hang tag. I have paid full price for coach bags that never seem to go on sale. Lol

[@kitschyoyo78]

I had/have Chanel, LV, Celine, etc but my favorite is Coach especially after 2020. I couldn't care less if something is "luxury" or not. Coach is a great brand, I don't have to babysit and handle it with gloves on.

[@clau22431]

The leather feeling might be good and of high quality which is really ok for the price. Tried ma y times an approach to check the Coach bag. But something keeps me off from them, I don't know what it is, the logo " tacky" for my taste doesn't make the bag elegant.

[@christinar8419]

Compare the Coach leather heart bag to the Chanel heart bag. You will be blown away that Coach has the better bag. It's crazy how they have to still prove themselves.

[@pinkybird808]

Love vintage coach and that the brand is releasing bags with a nod to their roots like the rambler or Kip turnlock. It’s def not cringe and the service I receive is more “luxurious” than Chanel or Hermes.

[@amorgladiador8856]

Agreed. Just bought a reissue glove tanned leather bag. Beautiful.

[@brownnoodlez]

Paid full price at the couch store (not outlet) for a Mickey Mouse bucket hat. Sold out in minutes and the bucket hat was never shipped to the outlet. The callab collections are amazing and lucrative.

[@miriamhavard7621]

Coach is a quality bag. Particularly vintage Coach. No drama, no worries. 💗🌺👜

[@rebecamendeznp]

My Coach bags are holding up better than some of my more expensive bags. But the older I’m getting I don’t like the amount of logos on a lot of the bag however they have several options that are just leather no logo. I agree with the person who commented that it’s a great brand to carry around town and not worry as much about safety.

[@workmusic7039]

I bought Coach in the 80's, when I was right out of school. I always thought that they were "starter bags" but I haven't been in coach store in a long time. I guess I'm missing out. NanZ

[@KD-dc2fd]

You make a great point about price versus quality and if paying more means better quality. I have a leather coach bag that I got 20 years ago that I love for when I’m going out for the night. A small simple square that zips and can be crossbody for ease of wear. I don’t enjoy their canvas material or the “CC’s” all over the bag. That looks quite dated and tacky to me. Whenever I pass their store at the mall, the designs look classy and chic and I’m close to picking up a new handbag to them over Gucci, who I also love.

[@KY-ls3kr]

Years ago my ex-colleague’s sister worked in Coach logistics department. She told me that Coach moved its entire production line to Vietnam. Hence, whether it is a luxury brand or not is very subjective, but one thing I am sure is that their bags’ production costs are very low compared to other luxury brands.

[@Giannas1096]

I believe you, I don’t think coach price matches the quality it feels cheap to me.

[@kokoromarudi7717]

You're right, and knowing how dirt cheap it really is to produce these bags in China and Vietnam (no environmental/labor regulations, etc.) their "affordable" price is actually very overpriced for what you get.

[@danceallurlife3508]

I love Coach. The quality is great and classic styles mixed with modern. I have used my medium sized Chanel flap bag 3 times and I bought it 2 years ago. I am scared to use it for fear of it being stolen or damaged! Never again

[@davidmuzquiz1853]

I have never had a craving for a Coach bag even if I always browse my local boutique and boutiques when I travel. I don't know what it is about the brand that doesn't have that FOMO as other brands (personally). I am currently obsessed with Etro (need Vela mini or medium bag, although I don't like the lining which is like raw leather but the style is everything I'm loving right now, but for the price, I'd expect a little more). And what's with almost triple the price for men bag's (what's wrong with you Etro?). Anyway, Coach is not luxury at all in my file. It's like I keep looking for a bag that I feel the need to have but I never find it.

[@dardaliebrooks7554]

Lovely makeup as always! Could you do a luxury makeup video one day?

[@eat.food.not.friends]

I like some of their perfumes, I even love one or two of them a lot. I think they're called "blush" and "floral blush" with the little flower charm on them. "Floral blush" is a floral fragrance with very good sillage and longevity. And that is rather rare for fresh, floral fragrances. But it's true that their bags are always on sale in Austria where I live. It reminds a lot on Michael Kors but nicer and with less bling bling. But I think it's really only their bags and small leather stuff that are always on sale.

[@NothingHereNothingThere]

Coach has it's own history, many of their current styles are drawn from those vintage bags rather than copying LV, Chanel, Hermes though there are those too. Their customer service if not always perfect is not on a downward spiral like the high end brands or trendy companies like Polene. They are trying to add mid-level customization, not quite full bespoke but still possibility to pay for a unique bag, and swapping out handles and straps. I don't like big logos and not one of my Coach bags have big logos, sometimes it's just on the removable hangtags. I have purchased original full price but less than on sale. But these days they are limiting productions to sell out before going on sale. They are value for quality in every day bags.

[@Mirella_MtOlympia]

Totally agree!!

[@josephmauricio9606]

Hey dacob i really love this topic because it hits home for me. I remember shopping @ coach in college and living downtown Chicago going into the Michigan ave store to buy my luxury items. It was such a treat for me, In which I still have 1 piece from then. I think over the years the quality has always remained the same and consistent to date. Yes I believe it has kind of stepped down from being a high end luxury brand to affordable Luxury in my opinion. Which honestly if the quality never changes and the consistency remains, it plays into the consumers favor, because we get it @ sale price for a quality product. Coach does have still those products such as bags and ready to wear which are higher end luxury made and absolutely with quality materials and crafted to last long but over all there products as a whole all are. I can definitely say I am a coach collector, i collect more signature pieces that are as close to one of kind as possible meaning once they sell out u won’t find them again. To me that’s luxury, I have bags that I have had for 3 years plus, and are still in such great condition. I would love to post a video for u showing all my coach bags that I have collected over the years 🎉🎉🎉❤
