Black Coach Soho Signature Purse

Soho - district in Manhattan noted for its old warehouses converted into restaurants, galleries and theaters.

Why would Coach name this line Soho? Simply put, it’s a classic design brought back to life in a way that only Coach could produce. These amazing vintage mini bags, wallets, and purses are perfect for fine dining, art gazing and for placing in your lap at a theater.

The Leather Soho is the hallmark of a woman’s delicate elegance and fortitude. That is why the Soho is so special. This line is the best of the best. As in vintage, it comes from the finest line of Coach Purses. It is the best of the past complimenting the trends of today. It represents the quality of past techniques and designs coupled with the diversity of today.

Soho’s are perfect for any occasion. I use my black patent leather Soho with silver buckles daily because it compliments everything in my wardrobe. I absolutely adore this bag. I use it for just about anything from shopping to throwing it around when I am feeling a little less than graceful. You really cannot go wrong with Black Soho.

Let’s talk about durability. The Soho is also so incredibly durable that it can withstand my toddler’s destructive little fingers. This bag did not become a classic because it was crafted from cheap materials put together sparingly. It is classic because of Coach’s signature materials and vintage hobo design that are guaranteed to outlast any trend, style or fad.

The strap is small enough to be hand held without looking like a dingle berry but long enough to be held under your arm incase you need a free hand. My Soho is a zipper top handbag, but I also like the flip top design Soho in tweed brown, blue and black. It is more modern vintage than my Soho because it captures the essence of the late 70’s and early 80’s.

Let’s face it; the 80’s were not all that glamorous. Florescent colors such as pink were only hot because they fit the social trends to deviate from the norm to explore our individualities. The Baby Boom era accelerated world industries by making goods faster and cheaper. However Coach knows that trends of the past are destine to return, so they put a little spin on the classic 80’s style making Soho’s in tweed. Tweed was originally called twill because it was made of unfinished woolen fabric woven into a twill pattern instead of a plain one.

In past eras tweed was a commodity because of its moisture-resistance and durability but soon became obsolete because the production and cost could not keep up with the worlds growing demands and industry boom. So they switched to materials such as polyester and cotton. Lucky for us Coach knows that quality is better than quantity and tweed as well as their other Signature materials will last. Maybe you haven’t noticed that a couch, not to be confused with Coach, made with tweed have withstood the years better than the cheap cost effective ones. This is what sets the Coach apart from the rest.

Coach’s are a little more expensive but you can be assured it will last. Whatever you personality happens to be: red, black, brown, orange, green, multi colored, small, large, mini purses, or wallets, Coach has something to fit your individuality. You can be assured that the Soho line and hobo design will last throughout the years, making the trends of today the classics of tomorrow.

The Coach signature Soho wallet reminds me of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Like Audrey Hepburn, her beauty, style and grace live forever as a vintage icon of what it means to be an individualized woman. The same can be said for the Soho. The varieties, quality and style will continue to dominate the accessory world making it ideal for just about any girl.
