I’m glad you retuned the bag. We shouldn’t have to settle for things that don't meet our standards. This video was no where near negative - it was informative and extremely helpful. TFS!
I have the green and I love it. I rarely buy coach from anyplace but Coach. Glove-tanned leather is expensive compared to pebbled leather. Yes it scratches easily but it does age beautifully and develops a beautiful patina overtime 💛
@@BossLadyGrady I got this bag in bubblegum pink from Amazon. Coach reps will tell you Coach has a legitimate Amazon storefront. Coach even advertised this on their tiktok videos of swing zip bags. They're legitimate. She just got a returned bag. Mine was brand new, tags attached, no defects. 😊
I’m glad you were able to notice that was not right for you. I know it hard when it seems contrary to popular opinion, but ultimately it’s your money and you have to live with it. I was interested in the bag myself for I felt it was coach’s version of the east west bag trend. But when I saw it modeled I realized it would be too small for me. Plus the colors weren’t giving for me atleast. TFS. All information is helpful. The good, the bad and the ugly.
Thanks for making this video! Not every overhyped Coach bag is for everyone and I think this is a prime example. I’m like that with the quilted Tabby. 😂❤
I got the hunter green the day of the count down. The website had a 10% off discount on bags over $250 or $350, I can’t remember. Total I paid $376.83. It is smaller than I wanted. As a plus size woman I only saw it on petite girls on TikTok and didn’t take that into consideration. It does hold a lot and I love the color. I figured I’d keep it and if I change my mind later I’ll resale it. Love the purse content. New subbie ~Reis
Thanks for sharing this . I love the hunter green color. I was hoping they would come out with a bigger version of the bag even though the small little thing does hold a lot. I just think it’ll suit more people if it was bigger . Also wished the handles were rolled leather or something so they wouldn’t get so distorted lol
Oh good information to know. Thanks for sharing. I have quite a few bags that I had to part with because they didn’t work the way I needed. I don’t fuss with my bags. If it’s fussy, it goes back lol! Thanks for the video! 👜💕
I was worried about getting a return too when I got it from the site this week. It came today and had wrapping and stuffing so I don’t think mine was. Straps in good shape so I hope it’s a keeper. I like this style a lot.
Thanks for doing this video because we really don’t see them often. You just saved me from possibly spending $$$ if I was interested in this bag Sis. I’m considering the Hampton but I’ve heard the clasp is a nightmare to deal with.
I saw a review on the Hampton and I saw that clasp issue as well. I don’t want to struggle or think about my bag 😂 whenever I see the swing zip it’s always a love affair with it . It could be improved for sure .
I appreciate you making this full review of the swing zip because I was so excited to purchase this bag when it came back in stock I unfortunately missed the drop but that’s okay because now that I hear your review I don’t think it would have worked out anyway thank you for being so detailed ❤
Thank you for sharing all these details. If a bag has that many nuances that are annoying, better to return rather than settle for it. Especially for the price. The Rogue outer pockets do that bulging thing with the most minimal items and it’s very annoying. I love how you welcome yourself back to your channel 😄 I do the same thing, mentally. Like, whew!
Thank you for sharing your experience! The swing zip is honestly captivating me as well, buuuut I have some concerns for it. The fact that the straps were giving you so much grief would be a reason for me to return it as well.. especially if it was obviously a return. And you make a great point: with all the strap versatilities that other Coach bags offer, it’s hard to justify this price for limited strap options. This bag is a re-edition to a 1998 model, so I do understand the design. I hope a newer swing zip works for you in the re-launch!!!! ❤😊
I’m honestly still bummed about it not working out I love looking at photos of this bag lol I think k if the handles were rolled leather or something less flimsy I would’ve kept it .
I ordered one during the last release. I ordered the saddle colored one. Once I received it, I was not impressed. It felt really flimsy and the leather was very thin. I agree that it looks bigger on RUclips. I returned it the next day. Coach is outrageous for their prices vs the product. I’m sticking with my Dooneys. I owned 25 Coach handbags at one point over the last year, and none of them impress me quality wise.
@@rikeshafoster I definitely agree about price vs product. I can’t BELIEVE the quality of Dooney bags specifically florentine leather and the prices they are sold at vs the Coach prices for the smallest bags or even the astronomical coach outlet prices for super cheapy feeling “leather” pieces
It's refreshing to see a follow-up video about the bag, and the reasons why you returned it. One of the negatives about buying online (especially bags) is that the size is never quite what you expect. I'm interested in this bag because of the space inside but the those spaghetti straps are potentially an irritation so it's helpful that you shared your experience.
I almost pulled the trigger on this bag and glad I didn’t. I’ve tried it in person at a Coach store. The leather part where the buckle is sewn to hold the straps seemed like it will stretch or tear over time when you put heavy stuff. I think the strap holes would do the same. I’ve also seen scratches on the preloved items. It’s a nice looking bag though. Thanks for this great review.
Videos about why you returned a bag are very helpful! Thanks for doing it. It does look less east-west (more squarish) than what I see on Coach’s website and pictures on the internet. Did you measure the bag to check if the measurements tally with those on Coach’s website? I’m just wondering if it is indeed the same bag, since you had bought it from someone through Amazon. Thanks again for posting the video. Have a great day!
@@AnnettaDarandri not at all. The bag was fully packed when I tried it on in the video so unfortunately the straps still managed to fall off the shoulder
@AnnettaDarandri trust me I still have the swing zip in my cart and even tried a dupe. I just can’t get past the straps and question how often I would gravitate to it.
I loved how insightful this review was. I received my black coach swing zip from coach during the restock and was also thrown off by how huge the dust bag was! I really like my bag and find that it suits my needs since I don’t carry much everyday and can avoid having a lumpy bag. I do think the price point is high, but I loved the silhouette and size too much to let it go!
Thanks for this video! I’ve been thinking about getting this but it’s the hype that’s influencing me. Good to know that although it fits a lot, it’s bulky. That’s a big con!
This just took away my excitement for the bag😭. When you mentioned the size wasn’t how you expected, I’m probably expecting the same. I love the design and all but now that you mention it, it does look small.
@@hobijung1464 I still admire this bag in the shops because it is a really great design. It does pack a punch but you’ll see all the lumps & bumps unless you pack small
@@yamilettealexandra5742 it was just not what I expected. It was smaller than I thought and the leather seemed flimsy. In my opinion it is not worth $400.
Thanks for sharing your point of view. Different perspectives are always useful when it comes to deciding on a purse. ❤ I made a video on this bag as well. Luckily I got mine in hunter green, in brand new condition . Wasn't sure about the size nor price at first, but I figured its a wonderful alternative as an everyday bag, so subtle , so light weight with no branding & gorgeous leather. The more I use it the more I love it. TFS❤
It’s something about the hunter green that is gorgeous! The new “dark lime” color is also really nice. This is a bag I’d have to visit in person and try on brand new before I could consider again. I wish it did work out .
@@AllOverDori I know the feeling of something you wanted to work out but didn't. You made a good decision of letting it go from that perspective. I'm sure you' ll find plenty other options . Coach seems to offer tons of nice choices right now ❤😍
Videos on why you return or sell a bag are just as important as videos about why you love a bag!
Thanks for the support and for watching. Idk why it was nerve wracking putting up a more negative opinion lol
I’m glad you retuned the bag. We shouldn’t have to settle for things that don't meet our standards. This video was no where near negative - it was informative and extremely helpful. TFS!

I’m with you ! If it is a designer bag I buy direct from their website or store. I just can’t trust Amazon on everything.

I completely understand, if it doesn't work for you then return. It makes no sense to try and make something work when it just won't. tfs

This Coach bag reminds me of the soft baguette bag from Marge Sherwood, that bag is actually longer
Yeah I saw this bag in person at the boutique and it just wasn’t doing it for me in person but online I was so into it lol

@@joyLoveC hello! Yes Coach has a dedicated store on Amazon so this bag was authentic .
@@AllOverDori I see. Sorry it didn’t work out for you 💕
Bags with double shoulder strap often have this issue, like the Longchamp tote. But don’t the weight of your stuff will keep the straps in place?
@@AnnettaDarandri not at all. The bag was fully packed when I tried it on in the video so unfortunately the straps still managed to fall off the shoulder
@@AllOverDoriBeen wanting the chalk but thanks to your vid I remember how annoying double straps can be. And I would hate to experience the wonkiness!

They gave you a huge Dustbag as well? I thought it was a mistake on mine lol maybe they do it for the straps idk
@@AllOverDori I thought it was ridiculously big as well so I looked up people unboxing their bags and that’s really the one Coach went with 😭

May I ask why you returned yours?
@@yamilettealexandra5742 it was just not what I expected. It was smaller than I thought and the leather seemed flimsy. In my opinion it is not worth $400.
Too bad you got a bad version of this bag. I have the black one and I love it. I have no issues with my bag.
So sorry it did not work out
I returned mine as well!
I wish the straps weren't so long
Who paid $400 in a coach not from the direct coach .
Even TJMax have replicas. Is you don’t know how to recognized it They would fool you .
Coach has a legitimate Amazon storefront. They've even advertised their Amazon storefront on tiktok videos of their bags.
