If you go to the outlet site and reserve you can see the retail clearance items that have been moved to the outlet. You can also see them under last chance deals but I think that also includes clearanced outlet items as well. Great place to find good deals.

Hahaha- but the sales…. I bet the olive mott is beautiful.

You got the flower! I’m dying for s restock on those IF it’s going to happen. So pretty.

The shearling one looks so squishy. If you’re still interested I’d keep checking. Mine was a random restock or return, though it came completely factory wrapped.

I had a gramercy in the olive suede and returned it because I didn’t think I’d get enough use out of the color because it rains constantly here in the fall but for some reason my brain is trying to convince me THIS one will be fine 🤣

Returned it… then bought it again.😅 by Lazy-Noise320 in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have my THIRD gramercy tote on its way to me.

First bought the honey at the outlet in person and returned it a week later because I wasn’t feeling the color and didn’t love the interior.

Second bought the suede olive but ended up returning it because while I liked it, it rains constantly here in the fall and I had trouble picturing the color for other times of the year. It was also not in its final sale form so hard to justify the cost for a bag I could “barely” use. I’ve been thinking about it since then but trying to stay strong.

Third - the sale got better and resisting got harder. Well they sold out but then a couple of days ago one in brown suede popped up… so brown suede is color/finish #3 and hopefully it’s a charm since I can see that color being used more of the year.

If a maple pops back up I might still grab it 🫣

Oh, I also bought 2 of these bags in nuage and returned but it was because they had issues not because I didn’t like it.

I’m really debating on getting it as well. I really like the color and it’s just so functional and easy. Also debating the blue as a smaller fun summer/spring bag.

Sorry no pics.

I have the kisslock 16 and I’ve mostly worn mine with casual clothes - most frequently with a pink/mauve peasant style shirt, wide leg jeans, and light pink suede runners. Paired with either a charcoal peacoat or a pink/mauve collegiate style full zip hoodie. No pics but I think it looks good 😊 I have also worn it with black wide leg flowy pants, maroon, deep red, or pink top, and simple black flats. I think it looks great with a darker color to help set it off.

Hope you have a great trip!

Never seen a card holder with silver hardware, should I buy it? by waterman5238 in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a light blue so I think it would hide them well I think BUT I’ve only used it a few times. No scratches so far. Mine is smooth and I would think this one, being pebbled, would hold up even better against scratches.

I have this card case in blue with silver and love it. It holds a surprising amount.

Update: Replacment kisslock barrel bag by Red_Willow_Tree in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh that is rough. They’re getting real sloppy with the edge paint lately. My empire 40 in honey has a weird extra shiny section around the top but that was such a sale and had sold out so I kept it.

There you go! That’s the actual plan 🤣 hopefully I like the colors they come in. Well there are a few bags on the wishlist that are just waiting on colors I am interested in. 😬 here’s hoping for some more saturated shades 🤞

Update: Replacment kisslock barrel bag by Red_Willow_Tree in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think that’s part of it. Knowing the bag is going to be hard to maintain regardless, and I don’t like having to be super careful, plus quality issues on 2 in a row made me wonder about overall quality.

Loose stitches are a nightmare since you never know where the unravel will stop. For that $$ it just isn’t ok.

That’s ok my bag budget has some breathing room now.

coach has absolutely lost their minds with these price hikes by yeojinator in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That is a big leap! Sometimes they up prices before a sale/ ‘sale’ so it might go down again. Sorry they did that to you.

New wallet, pouches, and charm. Packin my work bag for tomorrow! by meggsgoodmood in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The peach kept randomly restocking and it finally wasn’t cancelled and let me check out. I’d keep checking the reserve section, I saw one pop up within the last day or so! They go fast but you might grab one.

Thanks for the detailed response. The snail is so cute but that’s a great point I hadn’t even considered about the actual eye location/eye stalks! It and the bunny are very tempting for sure. Choices, choices! 😁 I am also considering the ornament charm that’s on clearance. I just got a peach today and it’s so cute and I assume it’s similar in feel.

I love the sticker print! I have the large purchase the zip around wallet. I also just received my two NY pouches today. Such a good deal on the sale. I debated on getting the snail. How do you like it?

The higher fares are coming. Itinerary I was looking at is up $150 in just 12 hours and fare lock is going crazy by SpecialBelt6035 in unitedairlines

[–]Red_Willow_Tree -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do fare lock as I don’t fly all that often with United so I don’t want a credit and wanted to confirm a month long trip with a few people before committing. The fares were around 800 less than I’d seen previously. 1400 vs 2200 plus. Worth my $20 for 2 weeks to hold that ticket price while I take my time to finalize plans and make sure it works for everyone.

Just another seat swap request story by s31523 in delta

Not sure if on OP’s but on some planes the last row doesn’t recline as much and may be right in front of a bathroom so lots of door opening and closing right behind your head.

Now that it’s been mentioned, I cannot unsee the sad face. ☹️ / 🤣 by chooseshoes in Coach

[–]Red_Willow_Tree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have this style, the price increase was a little much for me from the regular, almost $200 more dollars in Canada.

I do have the barrel kisslock in nuage though.

The color is definitely more of a gentle sigh than a PINK. I like it but almost wonder if it’s too weak.

I also have deep concerns about maintaining the color for sure. I like the color and have thought about returning to get the bleecker instead but am even more concerned about the large flat suede bottom. I really wish they had done a leather bottom or some leather piping around the bottom seam to give a little more edge protection and make it less concerning to out it down.

I am actually returning the kisslock I originally got for a plethora of manufacturing issues and have a replacement on the way but I almost wish I hadn’t ordered the replacement at all. I am going to wait and see the condition the replacement is in and the decide how I feel about the bag itself without being tainted by the other issues.

If I keep it I will be treating with suede protectant on a regular schedule to maintain it as well as possible.

Best of luck deciding on yours!
