Ocelot bags for fall/winter 2006? - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

Does anyone know if Coach will be doing another Ocelot collection for fall/winter 2006? They were so popular last year and the year before. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to buy one. I really loved the Ocelot satchels. Today I asked the SA at the Coach store in Santa Fe if the Ocelots would come back this year, and she didn't really know one way or another, but she thought that maybe they would, given their popularity in previous seasons. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Anyone have some insider info? :)

I am not sure, but if I discover it in the future I will post about it. I remember the collection, but what's wierd is I tried eBaying it and I could find any :confused: interesting.

yes, they are cute. dyed calf hair you said? maybe....i thought it was pure 'cause i found some listed on ebay (go look now jennifer) and it said 100% pure ocelot and it looked authentic. i hope not though....

Jennifer · August 15th, 2006, 10:34 AM

hum, I tried searching eBay. . I typed in "Coach Ocelot" and I only got 6 results. All small coin purses and framed pouches. Most looked authentic but said something like 'died calf hair'.

Do you have the item number LV girl? I am pretty sure, like 92%, that the ocelot isnt made of real ocelot fur, since it is endangered and all, but I am not an expert. I would like to check it out and email the seller. :)

the one in particular i was talking about is gone now, but all the other ones do say dyed calf hair. so that makes me feel better. it was a hobo though, with brown leather trim and gold interior. i guess dyed calf hair is okay since i eat beef. sorry about the uproar.

Those bags are so cute! I love all of them. I haven't seen them yet at Macy's though I'm sure they'll get them in within the next few months. Do you know how much they cost?

nycglamour_x3 · August 18th, 2006, 10:38 AM

Oh wait...I see they were from last year. Does anyone know where I could find them since they're not out in stores?

Jennifer · August 18th, 2006, 10:41 AM

hum, I think this collection is sold out completely. Not sure if they are bringing it back for this fall / winter season. My best bet would be on eBay :)

I went to coach today and asked the sa if they were going to be getting anymore and she said they will not be getting anymore f this particular bag in stock, however (with animal print being the trend and all) they should be getting a new simular style in
