What is Upcrafted leather?

It is leather made from the soft scraps left over from producing Coach bags, pieced into a patchwork. Each bag may show variations in color or print.

How much does it hold?

It is sized for essentials: a phone, a card case and keys. It is not built for a tablet, laptop or a full day's gear.

Will my bag look like the picture?

Not exactly. The patchwork panels vary in color and print from bag to bag, so each one is slightly different.

Does it have a crossbody strap?

It is a shoulder bag with a short strap drop that sits under the arm. The long strap drop listed is 58 cm, but it is designed to be carried on the shoulder.

What is the digital passport?

An NFC chip or QR code links the bag to a digital record. It is a Coach authentication and ownership feature.

How should I care for the patchwork leather?

Keep it dry and store it stuffed in its dust bag. The leather is meant to develop more character over time, so some darkening and softening is expected.

Our take on the Coach Women's Alter/Ego Shoulder Bag

The Coach Alter/Ego is a small patchwork shoulder bag made from Upcrafted leather, the scraps left over from making other Coach bags. Each piece varies in color and print, so no two look alike, and the leather is meant to gain character with wear. It holds a phone, card case and keys, and the short strap drop tucks it under the arm. Against Coach's smooth-leather shoulder bags it trades a uniform finish for a one-of-a-kind patchwork look, with decorative buckles and a zip top.
