Now to clear up any ambiguity. I'm male. Okay, now that we've cleared that up. Hi, I'm here to tell you that Coach handbags are worth the money. In every regard. Coach actually falls into the affordable luxury category. Other brands which fall into this category, include, but not limited to: Dooney & Bourke and kate spade. Those two brands, I would say, are close competitors in this segment.

The term "affordable luxury" is essentially an item, that garners a generally positive perception of you, your taste, your lifestyle, and possibly your income, at a price and supply that would allow the "average" person to purchase the item.
Coach definitely falls into this segment. Where, I live, in Fresno, California, not exactly NYC or LA. In Fresno, Coach is viewed by most as a "status symbol". There are tons and tons of counterfeit Coach in this area, though. I wonder why as it's not as expensive as, say, a comparably sized authentic Louis Vuitton bag (which start at approximately $500 for a bag). I'm definitely against counterfeits and you should be as well, for the simple fact that profit made from them, is sometimes used to fund terrorism, that alone should make you stop buying them immediately. Save for the real thing, or stop trying to create a perception to the public. In most cases , I can tell an authentic Coach bag from a counterfeit. So you're not fooling me. If it's not real, is it really "special" anyways? No.
So, for the image your trying to create to the public, that you're tasteful, successful and overall just a fashion-forward, fabulous individual, then yeah, its worth it. If you're addicted to their quality, their craftsmanship, their durability, then they are worth it. If you're quickly becoming financially burdened due to you offsetting financial obligations,for the sake of Coach,then this would be the only instance where Coach is not worth the money.
I have two pairs of Coach shoes and a wallet. I love them, dearly. The shoes were about $120 for each pair and the wallet was $148. Coach is durable. Coach is chic. Coach is affordable luxury. Coach is worth every penny. I love Coach!
