Sak

NativeJax — Mon, 13 Feb 2017 17:27:45 GMT

I have 4 Sak bags and they have been the most used bags I own. I have a kate spade and 2 Dooney bags that I use only for a few days and then back to my Sak bags.

Why doesn't qvc try to get this vendor on here?

NativeJax,

QVC used to carry the SAK many years ago. I still have a few of the bags I purchased here and they never seem to wear out. If memory serves me correctly, I think the vendor went to EVINE but wasn't there very long and I think she sold SAK leather bags and not the original style. After a while, people want something new and different. I still have beautiful leather wallets and a handbag by Medallion by Wathne, which was QVCs first handbag vendor. They were beautiful bags; great leather and styles; wore like iron; and, were reasonably priced.

I think the crochet SAK bags are no longer considered stylish.

I used to love Sak bags too......that would be a nice addition to QVC's bag line...

My bags I use are leather and not the crocheted ones. Although I do have one of those too but no longer use that. Mine are leather and they are great.

I have a crocheted SAK bag in yellow that I bought about 10 years ago and I still love it. It still looks almost new and I love the color.

We used to carry the full line of the Sak bags (wasn't it called Le Sak then?) anyway,over the years I had purchased the crochet back pack that I still use for the beacb. Sand falls right out....currently we only have The Sak Leather Kendra Hobo Bag with Side Pocket in linen at a last clicks price.

@Beth-QVC, there is a brand called Le Sportsac you may be thinking of - my favorite casual brand. They are different than The Sak - different material, shapes and sizes. They are more of a somewhat Kiplinger-type, but prettier and more colorful.

I still see Sak bags (not just the crochet) at Costco at various gift-giving times of year. A quick google tells me they're available many places online and in M***'s dept store.

@kelsey17,I love Stone Mountain bags and am now using two crossbody bags. I used Stone Mountains at least 20 years. And Sak's bags, too. I have two small ones. I used to like Max of NY.

Stone Mountain small bags you can usually get around $79. I can't remember where I got these two, they're identical, but they were $39. each. Beautiful leather, and you can't kill them!

I bought Stone Mountain bags for years - good quality and good value. Too heavy for me now, that's why I switched to Le Sportsac for everyday use.

I bought mine bags at Macy's and Belk, yes they are available at other places but so are the same bags offered here. My last bag I purchased last year was quite pricey and right before I lost my job:-( anyway, I am trying to adjust to my new way of life...sigh

If Qvc offered the nice leather Sak bags then maybe I could get another one on easy pay:-)

Sorry you lost your job, @NativeJax. Maybe something will come your way soon.

My Saks are both crochet. I can't remember the B&M where I got them, but I do remember they were in the middle of an aisle and on sale for very very little. I picked up two: one a beautiful olive green and the other all white. Both have tassels and are small.

Check online for prices, @NativeJax. You might find a real good buy.

Sak bags may not be considered "stylish" by some but I can tell you that they are constant sellers for me on eBay (pre-owned) and that you can buy Sak bags from Dillards (new) that are also all leather and very well done for the money. BTW Dillards by me is discontinuing Coach completely and is keeping Sak and Fossil (both solid sellers).....

@febe1....

Thank you! I am working again but am now self employed, getting use to commission income is an adjustment but I know this is only temporary. I am very cautious about my spending at the moment:-) this too shall pass and my needs are met, shopping for me is fun but it's not a necessity:-)

I bought a navy crocheted Sak for a new monsoon purse last year. (I avoid leather during our rainy season). I take a vintage unstructured style to the gym because it fits easily into a small locker and a have a couple of small cross bodies. I love The Sak.

I just bought a black/white Sak leather crossbody from ebags...it's very nice! My 1st experience with this brand, but I will definitely be checking them out now when I need a new bag.
