Vintage Coach | Crossbody Bag | Shoulder Bag | Genuine Leather | Girlfriend Gift | Devon

A customer recently visited our shop and shared fascinating stories about purchasing luxury handbags in Hong Kong during the 80s and 90s. It was incredibly engaging! She mentioned how challenging it was to apply for credit cards back then, as they weren't as common. Banks required a certain income and financial standing for approval, unlike today, where we can easily get one even as university students without income. So, when that customer received her very first credit card, she celebrated by buying a designer wallet, a gift to herself. She was thrilled, and it held immense sentimental value. - She also shared that Coach wasn't widely recognized in Hong Kong at the time. In Asia, it seemed only the Japanese market paid much attention to the brand. Consequently, there were no standalone Coach stores in Hong Kong, only a counter within department stores. She once bought a leather cover for her notebook. The leather was exceptionally soft and pleasant to the touch. Only after her purchase did she discover the superior quality of Coach leather. That cover proved incredibly durable; even after replacing the notebook inserts several times, the leather cover remained perfectly usable. - The hallmark of vintage Coach lies in its ability to endure for decades, much like this Devon Bag. From the 80s, it remains stunningly beautiful today! - Vintage Coach Devon Bag [Origin] Made in USA, 1980s [Included] Original leather hangtag [Dimensions] (W) 23 cm (H) 17 cm (D) 7 cm [Condition] Excellent overall condition, with normal signs of leather use.
