I love the Tignanello satchel they are showing today.  I have never owned a Tignanello bag.  Would you please tell me, if you have owned one or more, about the quality.  Thank you in advance.  $150 might not seem a lot to pay for some, but it is for me and I would prefer not spending foolishly if the quality is not there.

 @Nonametoday   Tignanello handbags are not all leather.The straps & the bottoms are faux.As a result in my experience the bags didn’t wear well.The straps fade & crack over time.I would not spend that kind of money for a bag that likely wouldn’t last more than one season.

Note when the description says man made trim they are referring to the straps & the bottom.Only the body of the bag is leather!

if you have a TJ Maxx or Marshalls nearby check out their handbag section. I often see Tig bags there.

I have several and love Tignanello bags.  Also have two $300 D&B that are in the closet - brand new - not being used because they are too darn heavy and big.  T wear very well unless you abuse them -  - I don't like hanging do-dads - stiff cardboard construction.  For the money - if you find one you love - you won't go wrong.  Leather vs fake = who cares if you're comfortable carrying it.

I just ordered two from a company I'd never heard of.  The price is right for as little as I use it.  The leather two I have, are so heavy to carry around, and truth be told, I need to look at something that's not flowery from Vera Bradley.  I needed a break.  Got two cute ones.  I can't even think of the name of them now!! LOL.  But what I started out after was a Tignanello.  I had a white and tan one years ago that I loved and just plain wore it out. It's no longer available I see and I saw a cute blue one A292875 but then went to Amazon in case it was there (Husband asked).  It wasn't but I always liked these purses.

Thank you all for your responses.  I think I might pass on it for now and watch for the reviews.

@Nonametoday For the same price, you can do better. Tig isn't what it used to be though it is a pretty satchel.

Thanks a bunch.  I love the look of the bag.  I think it is inspired by the Chloe See bag which, of course, I cannot afford and I do love handbags.  I have probably bought too many lately but I like for them to last so I can swap them out here and there and according to what I wear.
