Beautiful bag!</p> <p>I also checked and was told that Pecan color bags would not be part of the sale this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516583 Wed, 08 Jul 2015 02:03:48 +0000 Janet 1516583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Brahmin clutch that has a detachable strap so it could be used as a crossbody. It's a rose gold color, it's just slightly on the small side for me to use as a day bag, and it's a little dressy, so I don't use it a ton, but I enjoy it when I do. It's classic and I plan on keeping it for a long time -- it seems very sturdy and well made. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516575 Wed, 08 Jul 2015 01:48:28 +0000 catgirl 1516575@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a dark blue tote and it wears like iron. I am a bag abuser and this thing can take whatever I dish out. It's my work bag and worth every penny. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516486 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 22:34:56 +0000 lynn 1516486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them-- I have a black one and an identical pecan one. I find them to be much lighter than they appear and they have lots of pockets. I dress very casually, mostly jeans and wear one of these two choices all fall and winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516474 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 21:59:40 +0000 Marlene1 1516474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Be sure to check the weight of the bag.&nbsp; I need a lighter weight bag, so Brahmins won't work for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516449 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 21:06:25 +0000 Anonymous 1516449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the comments - sounds like I should def. be prepared to purchase a new bag :).</p> <p>I am really leaning toward the shoulder bag...I just love the shape and simplicity of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516447 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 21:01:51 +0000 crutcher 1516447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Prepare to scout the sale...I am sure they will have these lovelies on ...<br />So unique...I hope you can find one you love... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516444 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 20:52:59 +0000 Beth Ann 1516444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a black Brahmin tote.&nbsp; Love it, and the leather wears like iron.

I have had it 4 years now, and it still looks new. And I use the heck out of it. I fell in love with it at first sight, and after trying to find a less expensive bag, I eventually gave in and splurged for it. SOOOO glad I did </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516441 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 20:35:53 +0000 deb 1516441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I own three Brahmins, one 20 years old, and I love them. Currently my only complaint is the new very visible logo. I will hold off purchasing until that changes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516440 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 20:29:46 +0000 Joyce B 1516440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh man, now I want one, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516430 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 19:44:48 +0000 retailgirl 1516430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brahmin bags are extremely well made...some are even made in the U.S., in nearby southeastern Massachusetts. I think they are well priced for the quality, better quality than Michael Kors or Coach. And not so easily recognizable, although around my neck of the woods they are, because they're made nearby and they are popular here. I have one that's about 25 years old! I was a buyer for a specialty store and a sales rep. gave me his sample. It's a red satchel and looks kind of like the original Coach bags. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516421 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 19:27:00 +0000 AV Installer 1516421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them..I have 2, got one last ear at NAS for about $90. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516419 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 19:22:27 +0000 Anonymous 1516419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have looked at them many, many times. &nbsp;I never purchased one though ... mainly because I didn't find the perfect one for me. &nbsp;The look to be really well made. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516417 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 19:21:15 +0000 crst 1516417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a Brahmin crossbody in that color and absolutely adore it.&nbsp; I can't speak to longevity as I just got it last year and switch between purses, but I always feel totally great when I wear it. So I highly recommend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/brahmin-bags#post-1516411 Tue, 07 Jul 2015 18:58:18 +0000 Anonymous 1516411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone have experience with Brahmin Bags? &nbsp;They are beautiful and I was wondering about the quality/longevity. &nbsp;I love the clean lines that are made more interesting by the texture of the leather.</p> <p>I was looking to maybe pick one up - and hoping they go on sale during NAS.</p> <p>I would like to replace my BP Brand Cross Body Bag (went cheap as I was trying out a new-to-me style handbag - <a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bp-double-stud-crossbody-bag/3714302?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=Cognac&amp;resultback=0"><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bp-double-stud-crossbody-bag/3714302?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedso" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bp.....onalizedso</a>...</a>) with the Duxbury Mini in Finds or this shoulder bag:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/brahmin-anytime-mini-convertible-handbag/3402701?origin=keywordsearch">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/br.....wordsearch</a></p> <p>In the Pecan color.</p> <p>I really enjoy having a cross body bag, but I wonder, since the style is a little more formal, or elevated, if I should stick with a shoulder bag.
