No matter your gender, Coach’s men’s bags are a collection worth paying attention to, and that’s especially true when the brand reaches out to one of its favorite artists for a collaboration. Earlier today, Coach debuted its Men’s Spring 2017 1941 collection, and for a very limited time, you can buy a selection of the bags, accessories and ready-to-wear straight off the runway, including many pieces hand-customized by celebrated Los Angeles-based artist Gary Baseman.
For accessories lovers and art fans alike, the standout pieces are the hand-painted leather totes, all with illustrations applied by Baseman himself. Each of the four tote designs retails for $2,000 and comes in an edition of only ten, which will make them true collector’s items. For Baseman fans looking to spend a bit less, there are also printed canvas totes for $295 in motifs indicative of the artist’s playfully macabre aesthetic. In addition to the Baseman limited editions (which, on the RTW side, also include leather jackets and T-shirts), there are also dinosaur bag charms, punked up for the occasion and in editions of 75 per color to celebrate Coach’s 75th anniversary.
All of the pieces below, in addition to the limited edition jackets and shirts, are available for immediate delivery for a very limited time via Coach.com, and you can also watch a video of the brand’s LCM show via the brand’s website.
Those are crazy!
I like the totes but $2000 seems pretty steep for just a leather tote even if they are custom by Gary Baseman. I’ve made the mistake of dropping $2000 on a leather tote for Celine…biggest regret ever. The tote has nothing to it except just being a tote!
I like them all (but not the price). If someone was walking by with one of these totes, I would definitely say “whoa, what the heck do you have there?”
I hope they make those at a normal price point, they’re pretty great, just not for $2,000. Also, very excited because I have a T-Rex bag charm coming in the mail today!
Am I the only one that thinks these bags look like a disgusting, infantile mess?
right there with you
really???
I kind of love these as they are very much, “Fuck off with your boring clothes and every beige thing you own” type of bags. I still desperately want that dinosaur charm!
