Is the magnetic closure secure?

It holds the bag shut but does not lock it. The top stays partly open, so it is not ideal for crowded places or travel.

Does it fit a tablet or laptop?

The 12-inch width and height fit most tablets and small laptops. A full-size 15-inch laptop will not fit comfortably.

Can it be worn crossbody?

No. It comes with a shoulder strap and a short top handle, not a long adjustable crossbody strap.

How does it compare with the Coach Tabby?

The Brooklyn is softer, larger and less structured. The Tabby has a flap and more secure closure but less room.

Is the shearling version hard to care for?

Yes. Shearling needs brushing and protection from rain and friction, and it shows wear faster than smooth leather.

A wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses and a small pouch fit easily, with an inner pocket for smaller items.

Our take on the Coach Brooklyn Magnetic Snap Shoulder Bag

The Coach Brooklyn is a soft, slouchy shoulder bag built around a magnetic snap closure and a roomy 12-by-12-by-4-inch body. It comes in smooth leather and in shearling and sheepskin finishes, with brass-tone hardware and a single shoulder strap plus a short top handle. The magnetic lock makes it quick to open, but it does not fully secure the bag the way a zipper does. It suits shoppers who want a relaxed, unstructured everyday bag and prefer easy access over a locked-down top. Against structured Coach crossbodies like the Tabby, it trades organization and security for softness and capacity.
