It’s great for both men (my Dad makes special requests for me to bring mine home) and women for adding extra sizes to belts, handbag straps, and even leather ankle shoe straps. If you don’t have a leather hole puncher by now, then you’ve been seriously missing out. My adjustable strap was still too long for me at the shortest hole, but no biggie…. If strap length is usually an issue for you, make sure to look for styles that have adjustable straps with buckles (some Coach straps are not adjustable, as shown above).

Re-sizing Straps – I received this question from readers and figured it is widely applicable for several styles of bags.

Lastly, there’s no better testament to item quality and longevity than finding an old bag in excellent condition. The older leathers also feel different from those in-stores now even for the same styles – I don’t know what the difference is exactly, but it feels less treated/coated.

Personally, I prefer buying such bags on the second-hand market for greater color and style selection, plus added character. These also were the most popular colors that I came across in my search – British tan (the caramel brown), navy, red, hunter green (love it), black, and dark chocolate brown (not pictured above)… Image sources: my own, Google images, and here
