Coach Legacy Pieced Leather Hobo
Whether you’re a fan of the All-American brand Coach, or not, you can’t deny your curiosity towards seeing their latest designs each season. I always look forward to seeing their nice (and not-so-nice) pieces. For the past couple of years, I’ve seen drastic changes done to their brand, basically it seems like most of their goods are less classic in design followed by outrageously expensive price tags. Take a look at one of the many newbie’s by Coach; the Legacy Pieced Leather Flap Hobo is its name. I’ve never been crazy over the brands infamous patchwork bags, and this hobo leaves no exceptions. I’m bothered by the collaboration of suede, leather, haircalf, nubuck, and soft-pebbled leather patches, it just doesn’t appeal to my likings. The only details found on this piece that I’m fond of would be the hobo’s design and that nice shoulder strap, other than that, this bag is way to medieval-themed for my taste. Stiff, heavy, and trendy is what I imagine this Coach bag to be and the outrageously overpriced MSRP of $1,200 is enough to make me turn away with no doubts. A classic leather Coach bag sporting a rich hue is a yes in my book… while this bag is definitely a nay!

I don’t like Coach’s patchwork.
I think the hardware looks really weird to me. Other than that, this bag is just okay.
This bag is so cute! I want it.
I like this bag. I’ve always been a fan of the mix and matching of the patchwork bags.
The bag is a little too busy in that it trys to mesh to many different colors and fabrics. Conceptually it works out for the fall but you’re right in that it seems midieval and heavy. Obviously the price is way off as well.
Yuck, I don’t like patchwork.
Ugly. Hate the patchwork from coach.
I am not a big fan of the patchwork. This bag has a lot going on.
I thought the same thing when I first seen it, but when it appeared in the recent issue of Elle (Jessica Simpson cover) I was able to see it with an outfit and it looked very chic.
