Coach Leather pleated hobo
Its been awhile since I've seen anything interesting at Coach. I'm so sick of the signature canvas, and I'm undecided on this new patchwork line. It seemed like the designers at Coach were asleep at the wheel, not coming out with anything new or different.
But I did a double take when I saw the Leather pleated hobo. Simple, but not boring. Classic, but a little funky. I love the chain that crosses the front and the lovely pleats. My only complaint is that that hardware only comes in brass, where I would prefer a silver tone.
Honorable mention goes to the Chelsea Turnlock hobo.

I have always loved to show the signature off on my latest bag, but you are right as it can get a bit boring after a while of same old same old.

I just bought a white Chelsea Turnlock. It's much cuter than the picture.

I too am sick of Coach handbags. They have gotten away from leather in favor of canvas, cloth etc. For the amount of money that a coach handbag costs I expect leather. I think they are trying to get the young kids into their line by offering bags that are a little more inexpensive and the parents will be willing to pay for. I wish Coach would bring back leather and come up with some mid sized bags.

My sentiments match yours. I haved loved the coach style for 15+ years. Finally, I am able to afford a coach without skipping dining out and this canvas stuff consumes the market. Please remember classic is elegant, fashionable and never out of style. Put the real stuff back out there and get rid of your young, aspiring designers or teach them that classic styles are timeless. smile
