My Most Complimented Bag Is the Coach Brooklyn—Here's Why It Makes the Perfect Gift
Every time my mom visits my apartment, she attempts to steal one thing: the Brooklyn Bag from Coach. It's simple and sleek, and it fits everything I need. It's the prime example of Coach's signature craftsmanship, something my mom and I have both admired for decades. When I was in high school, I stole my mom's Coach backpack from the '90s, so this holiday season, it's only fair that I gift her a Coach bag of her choosing. The obvious choice is the Brooklyn bag she's been admiring. Discover more about why it makes a great gift below.
The Bag That Goes With Everything
The Brooklyn is a bag you can actually use every day, which makes it especially satisfying to gift. Its roomy shape has plenty of space for everything you need for work or a weekend out and about, and it doesn't require much thought to style. It can move from work to dinner to the weekend, and you can throw it over a simple outfit and still look put-together, which is probably why it gets so many compliments.
Give the Gift of Fashion Heritage
One of the things that makes the Brooklyn feel like a special gift is that it isn't meant to stay perfectly pristine forever. Made with natural-grain leather inspired by Coach's Glovetanned leather heritage, the bag is designed to soften and develop character the more you wear it. It has the look and feel of a luxury bag, but at a more accessible price point. It's a thoughtful gift because their relationship with it can continue long after the holidays are over.
