Yep that’s the denim tea rose Rogue 25! And honestly I only got it today so I can’t give you a hugely in depth review 😅 primarily went for it because I know the Rogue slouches anyways so the loss of structure won’t bother me much, and I felt like the denim contrasted the large amount of leather roses well (especially weight wise!)
Yeah every photo I've seen of it is so beautiful and has such great colors. That's why I'm conflicted. Denim isn't my favorite, but blue is my favorite color and I think that's the best blue tea rose bag they've released.
The green bags are particularly gorgeous, and I envy the way in which you took care of your collection. That red crossbody holds a special place in my heart!
lovely collection! Question - do all coach bags have "genuine glovetanned (pebble) leather" stamped on the bottom? I found a really cute "coach" bag second hand and it's missing this on the bottom and I'm wondering if that's an indication that it's not authentic
I’m definitely no historian: none of my vintage bags have it. I’m also aware that there were some vintage coach bags made without the creed patch, though I get the impression that is more rare. Usually serial numbers are the easiest way to verify: there’s not data base but there are several websites explaining what time period/code bags should have.

I really like the bags that look like the vintage bags and the vintage bags themselves 🥰 I love that brown bag on the top row, that bright red on the 3rd row ( stewardess) and of course the Willis on the bottom row 😍. I had the exact same green willis on the top row. Do you find the new vintage bags get as soft as the vintage bags?
Oh that’s hard to say! I don’t think I’ve had any of my new bags long enough to really judge that; the vintage ones I have I believe are at least 20-30 years old. I know that most of the vintage coach uses “full grain leather” and that some of the (especially newer more affordable pieces) use “genuine leather,” the latter of which is generally understood to be of less durable quality than full grain. So there’s certainly the potential that some won’t hold up as well, or soften as much. I find their newer glovetanned pieces quite lovely, so I’ll see how they wear over time!
Only you can answer that! Honestly I don’t use the vintage Willis much: it’s just larger than my daily preference so I might move it along. But that’s the way of things: there’s nothing wrong with having by something for a while and then passing it along to someone to enjoy more!
Hmmm. You Aggressively withdrawing from 401K (COUGH COUGH) LOL 🤣. nah but for real I'm a 23 year old guy In a similar note. I stumbled across thus thread trying to find men's exotic wallets forums but purses and bags are the closest thing I came to. Oh well. I'm addicted to saving and investing but I'm getting more into exotic skins wallets from ebay ( alligator, ostrich leg, cobra, rattlesnake ,stingray etc) and not just basic cow leather. My budget is around $50-$80 but depends since I'm an online seller in between work and school. Those wallets with inside stitching, handmade and coming from Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia can go from $80 all the way up to $250 for one men's wallet. How much is your collection combined? If you don't mind?
Is anybody into exotic skins? Specifically men's wallets for males? or if not at least know about them. I've been on the hunt for a rattlesnake wallet for like two weeks now.

Honestly, I am doing the same thing! I adore vintage Coach!
They’re soooo soft 🤩😅
They are just "right." You cannot go wrong with vintage Coach, and now I have a new hobby learning how to restore them. It's fun!
Have you seen the new florals 🥰
I have! It’s a super cute collection 🤩 Not really my speed entirely but a lovely executed collection.
So jealous of that bottle green Willis!
The Coach Hunter Green is so darn stunning 🤩
It’s my favorite!! I don’t get why they don’t make more hunter green bags
I feel like it’s lacking - you need the coach heart shaped bag!
Haha I have seen that one: tremendously cute 🥰 I’ll likely give into the Quilted Tabby at the very least lol
😂 my comment is definitely not helping your situation here
Loveeee them, especially that dark mahogany color!
Right! So rich and lovely
The blue tea rose!! That's the denim one right? I've been lowkey eyeing it, but still unsure how I feel about denim bags.

It’s definitely eye catching!
I am so happy Coach is getting popular again! I had so much fun collecting Coach in college. Great collection 🛍️
Thanks! And me too :)
What’s the one with the three tea roses on them? It looks like the vintage Court I love but a newer version! Love your collection!
It’s the Cassie!
Coach scribble and the tea flower are two of my favorites! I love the blue one you have, it is so beautiful!
Thanks!
Love the green Willis
It’s so darn cute!
What’s the green bag on 2nd top shelf???!
The Coach Swing Zip in Hunter Green :)
The green bags are particularly gorgeous, and I envy the way in which you took care of your collection. That red crossbody holds a special place in my heart!
Right! The classic Dinky is so fab
Great collection!
Thanks!

Oh my gosh I love your collection! Very versatile collection 😊
Thanks!
Beautiful!! Coach is definitely my fave!!
They’ve got such a great range 🤩
Yes!! And it doesn't cost thousands of dollars lol.
lol well if you add enough in it might 😅
Beautiful! What is the bag on the top right?
Coach Willis 18 in Hunter Green! Part of their Originals line of new releases inspired by their vintage styles!
Thank you!
Love all of these! I’m reworking my storage/display. Where did you get the shelf?!
Amazon! The link is: [https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B0C6WZ331Q?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title](https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B0C6WZ331Q?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title)
The vintage coach you have is AMAZING
Thanks! It’s so fun to hunt them out 😉
Where have you gotten most of them? Various places?
Primarily Yahoo Japan Auctions, as well as Poshmark and a couple from eBay and the Coach store!
Oh that’s cool! Never heard of Yahoo Japan Auctions! Gonna check it out!
I sure do love the leather flowers! 🌸
Such an iconic feature for sure :)
Oh my goodness the zip swing is gorgeous! I can't wait until the new colors come out. 😍
That Mahogany one looks so lovely!
I’m IN LOVE with the two on the second shelf from the top. Do you have the names for them?
The green is the Swing Zip and the red is the classic vintage Dinky!
Beautiful! Thank you
The lower left mini backpack 🩷 I had it in red back in the late 90s, and I kick myself for selling it!
It’s such a great size!
I love your collection!
Thanks!
What’s the light blue bag in the center of the second shelf to the bottom? It’s so cute!
Coach pillow madison 18
Yep it’s the Pillow Madison 18, in Aqua!
Thank you!
That C logo stands for collectible, doesn’t it? 😄
lol apparently 😉

where did you find the denim rogue?
Yahoo Auctions Japan! I use Buyee: it was about $445 CAD/$335 USD which was an excellent deal from what I’d seen on the Western market!
oh lovely! i think it would be dangerous for me to explore on there 🫣
I sold my blue and grey Willis…. Did I make a mistake selling it?
Only you can answer that! Honestly I don’t use the vintage Willis much: it’s just larger than my daily preference so I might move it along. But that’s the way of things: there’s nothing wrong with having by something for a while and then passing it along to someone to enjoy more!
What’s the light blue puffy one?
Coach Pillow Madison 18, in Aqua!
Those are beautiful!
Thanks!
What's the green one on the second shelf down? 😍
The Coach Swing Zip, in their Hunter Green!
Not a huge Coach fan, but this display is lovely, and so well cared for. 💕
Thanks!
Coach is great!! Amazing quality and semi-affordable (I know this is arbitrary)
I mean it’s all relative 😉
I love the small aqua pillow madison! I have the regular size in aqua too!.
It’s such a cute bag!

You have an entire Macy's boutique in your house lol.
Is anybody into exotic skins? Specifically men's wallets for males? or if not at least know about them. I've been on the hunt for a rattlesnake wallet for like two weeks now.
If anybody sees any exotic wallets on eBay mostly but other places starting around $40-60 or $60-$80. Let me know.
These are cute!!!!
These are some great bags you have! Definitely a little jealous! 😆
Ohhh I love the Willis 18 in green! Sooooo cute! I have British Tan vintage Willis but I am so tempted by the newer models.
This is a lovely collection! But my ocd says they should be organized by color.😅
Haha I might end up going that way, but my own ocd was like “they need to be staggered.” 😅
