Used to rock Coach heavily when I was in college. Back then…read moreit was extremely durable, and affordable: two key factors, especially for a student. And when they had a store in Georgetown, DC. I STILL have my men's satchel briefcase from college. Back then the leathers were super supple buffalo hides. I also still have a checkbook holder and a few other zippered pouches and such that I no longer use. Today's Coach isn't nearly as nice, especially the men's line. Around 2000, the company shifted its offerings from simply designed, neutral-toned leather purses to bags made of mixed materials ― that is, leather paired with canvas or nylon ― available in an array of colors and logo prints. Simply put, in order to keep up with "trends" they started selling crap. Called the Tyson's store last year to ask about having the straps replaced on my briefcase and was told that they didn't even repair bags (outside of warranty) anymore. Turns out that wasn't exactly correct since I just found a shipping and repair label on their website. Hmmm.... I guess the person I spoke to on the phone was probably too young to know what she was talking about. Ended up using a local cobbler to replace the straps (which don't look as nice) so I may just send my bag in to Coach now after all. Anyway.... Their quality fell off and I had long since moved on so I really didn't care. Flash forward to the year 2022 and I was considering something nice for my daughter's 16th birthday. Something nice but not "too" nice if you catch my drift. Something a 16-year-old girl would appreciate and I wouldn't be pissed if she lost or damaged beyond recognition. Someone sent me a gift idea of a Coach keychain pouch - from Bloomingdale's, for $65. Remembering that there was a Coach store down at Tanger Outlets, I decided to check them out first. Fearing online fakery and running out of time as her birthday approaches, I knew I wouldn't have time to get anything shipped. Another deciding factor in going to Tanger. Disclaimer: Since it opened a few years back, I never really have gone down there to look at anything. Plus, I'm suspicious of "outlet centers" conspicuously placed in heavily populated areas. Glad I went to check this one out however. Although the selection is somewhat limited versus main line department stores like Bloomingdale's, I was able to obtain a keychain ID pouch for less than half the Bloomie's price. This place even offers a 10% military discount. Deal was so good even got one for my older daughter. Two ($78) keychain pouches for $59? Yes please, and thank you. Side note: the floor plan of this outlet center needs some work. By the time you see the big American flag and the building (in the very back of the mall) with COACH on it, you've already passed the actual store. I was about to give up when I walked into the Nike store - saw the ridiculous line - walked out, and looked ahead on my right and there the store was.... finally. I'd been walking around for close to 30 minutes...didn't see a security guard... didn't see a directory...or directional signage.... and was about to go home. I was having a conversation with the associate inside and she said, "yeah people get confused all the time." Speaking of associates, the ones here greeted me quickly and repeatedly, so service is super friendly and efficient. Maybe I'll check out a few other stores at Tanger Outlets now. If you are looking for the Coach store however you'd better bring a compass and coordinates, lol. I was so turned around after my "stroll" around Tanger Outlets that I couldn't even find my vehicle - which took me another 20 minutes to locate as I retraced my path - which was all kind of a blur at this point since ALL the stores now looked familiar. Had Blue Bell ice cream in the trunk that I'd just picked up from Walmart 30 minutes earlier. Luckily it was chilly outside this afternoon or I probably would have met a milkshake or two. Got my Fitbit steps in though, for sure! Thanks Coach!

It's a professional look leather number just big enough for wallet, cell phones, shoes and a sweater. It seems pretty durable and I'm told the straps are tested up to 250 lbs (though I cant imagine anyone putting anything that heavy on their shoulder!) The sales person helping me was super nice - and funny! It made me feel a LOT better about spending so much on 1 bag. Tumi also has a great return policy and warranty so I feel confident if anything happens, I'll be covered. If it wasn't so darn expensive, I'd invest in some Tumi luggage as well. Tip: This particular store is rather small so the selection may not be the best. I would assume they can order whatever you want, however.

If you have some of their pieces, this is an affordable option to increase your inventory. No military discounts are offered but they did have some in store promotions displayed throughout the store. The store was clean, well lighted and organized. Sometimes you can enter a store and if not organized, make you want to leave. Just me? Monogramming is available in store and can be done while you wait. If not, you can walk about and continue shopping and return to pick up your purchases. It seemed to be a 15 minute wait and there are a variety of fonts and colors to choose from, up to 3-4 letters on certain items. They even have fragrances! The samples on display have fragrance only or you can opt for a gift set. normally stores have gift sets around the holidays but things were well stocked. From wallets, umbrellas, luggage and purses, this location had quality selections. These items are at a higher price point but the warranty and level of service that go along with the Tumi name are top notch. I definitely plan to return and peruse their inventory. I would recommend to friends and frequent here. The customer service was fantastic and Jimmy did an outstanding job helping me select garment bags and educating me on the features.

I went today with my friend that needed new food industry shoes. I told her I'd tag along and she could use my $10 off discount. OMG, how hard is it to buy a pair of bulky black shoes? I have to admit, they are expensive, even the ones on the clearance racks. I tooled around the clearance non-shoe items on the tables in front of the clearance shoes. Did I really need anything? No. Did I buy anything? Yes. They were practically forcing my hand into my purse to grab my wallet and buy things I didn't really need that were 60% off PLUS an additional 30% off. I mean, was I supposed to walk away from these deals? I'm a sale junkie. I couldn't. I didn't. I bought a three wick candle because it smells like wine, and what gal doesn't like a good red wine? I bought a puzzle because it has a chihuahua and a Westie on it, even though I don't have the table space for a puzzle right now because COVID has forced me to bring my classroom materials home which have rudely claimed stake to where I used to eat. And then my friend didn't even buy the ugly work shoes! She went to the shoe store across from DSW and bought and even uglier (albeit cheaper) pair of work shoes. At least I only spent $9.48.
