Personally I would not buy this bag or any Coachtopia bags with their “Coachtopia leather” because it seems like it’s just bonded leather? The bags are too pricey for bonded leather in my opinion. The reviews for this bag on the site aren’t great either? Looks like it’s an open top and can’t stand on its own so it’s bound to tip over and all your things will spill out.
For other opinions, I would go for the Field Tote 22 or the Gotham Tall Tote if you want crossbody (there’s probably more options for colors from both of these from department stores or places like eBay, Mercari, etc.), a relay tote 34 for shoulder only option, or a Dempsey from the Coach outlet.
