I knew I read about the Hudson recently! There’s one on ebay right now, listed as a cognac and black leather bag.

I am so with you on the lease-a-bag phenomenon.

I have both the Trish and Striping Bowler and have had no quality issues with either bag. I can assure you that this problem is not as common with other Hudson-owners on TPF as you have suggested.

If the Hudson is what Jennifer wants then I think she should go for it. It was available for sale in the Bag, Borrow or Steal outlet section not too long ago. That’s certainly an option. Additionally, there is one available on Ebay with a low starting price and no reserve in the chestnut color. The Hudson is a beautiful bag and a Marc Jacobs subforum favorite. One of MJ’s best designs imo.

You overlooked an obvious choice: the Marc Jacobs Dash! It has the same profile and the same pleats. It is also on sale at Net-a-Porter, so it ends up being cheaper than the Hudson!

Just to let you know. I have the Trish duffel in this same collection… And the bag has had problems. The top stitching came apart and the gold hardware is lose. Everyone I know has had problems with this bag. I would highly advise against it because it has lots of problems. I know it’s sooooo Pretty! But trust!!!

Why not treasure this bag in your mind as a gem and buy something new, now that there are so many to choose from? Personally wouldn´t even consider none of the ones pictured above. All MJ bags IMO are terrible and recently I have seen many of his designs that look close to some other designers presented earlier.

I figured there were some great ones on eBay! I just do not authenticate eBay items for people for a few reasons… thanks for the heads up!

As a matter of fact, there is a beautiful Chesnut Hudson listed on eBay right now from a lovely tPF member who frequents the Marc Jacobs forum here. I purchased a Venetia from her in February and have nothing but good things to say about the experience. Jump on it!
