Recently, Coach announced they would be collaborating with Alabama-based designer Billy Reid on their Capsule collection. Both are recognized for their all-American style and dedication to superior craftsmanship, so it seems this collaboration is only natural. Personally, I am very excited to see this collection. I have always been a fan of Coach, even when many bagistas were getting a little bored with the sea of Coach handbags everywhere they went. Coach is certainly recognizable, but I don’t think that is necessarily a bad thing. After all, Coach has produced some awesome handbags over the years. So I think this collaboration can only add to that awesomeness!
The collection will include a variety of women’s and men’s accessories. Prices range from $250 to $800. However, a $20k crocodile piece was also thrown into the mix. Interestingly, some unique items were also included with this collection such as a leather-trimmed portable bar set. There are even father and son sized baseball gloves, which is fitting considering how it was a baseball glove that inspired Miles Cahn while creating a new way of processing leather for Coach handbags.
The collection is set to hit select Coach stores (and online, Nordstrom and Macys) in September. The anticipation is killing me! But until then, here is a little sneak peek!
