Hey all, sorry for the delay, here are the links to all the brands mentioned!

I LOVE that people seem to be waking up and focusing more on quality. Tanner Leatherstein's channel is great for this. I'd love if you could do a similar list for leather shoes.

As a polish person it made me happy to hear that a polish brand was mentioned by you ❤ Such a nice change after hearing mostly about french, american, italian, british... brands. Thank you Katie! 😊

This is one of the most useful videos I've seen in a while. Thanks for the heads up on these newer brands!

[fernandaramos]

I love how you explain! Can you make a review of Strathberry please?

[HerraShariat]

Great video! I agree with you about personal safety concerns, especially when traveling, getting robbed on vacation is painful enough, but getting robbed with an authentic bag is even worse. To me, it makes sense to travel with a fake kislux bag and not carry any valuables that you would miss. Also, if your bag gets damaged by dust, stains, accidents, whatever it is, it doesn't matter even if it's fake.

So surprised to find Chylak here, a brand from my hometown 😊
And I totally fell in love with Fleuron!

[annaandre]

Hey Katie ☺️ You missed the links. Can you please add them in the description? Thank you so very much ❤️

[NavidQurei]

Agreed. I just sold my Speedy 35 kislux (I did keep the brown one), my Sofia Coppola perforated LV clutch, my blue Damier clutch I bought in Japan, and the By the Pool vanilla clutch. Kept an orange epi Alma. It feels great!!

Thank you for this!! I've been obsessing over the LV pochette metis just because of the sturdiness and the *perfect* size. I'm not into designer anything, and I hate the LV print, so I'd never want to carry one. So many of these brands have a similar sized bag and they seem quality and sturdy. This is JUST what I was looking for.

[ElizabethHall-iecz]

Love your videos promoting under the radar brands!

[Laura-tbnm]

I don’t think the brands mentioned are in the description right now; is it just me?

[MahnkenBurg]

I bought a LV bag *condup* years ago. I took it to the LV store in my town last week to have it repaired. The store clerk inspected my bag and immediately told me that the bag was of good quality. She pulled a current bag out of inventory and compared the tags and I found zero differences

[marianapereirae]

You have definitely put some new indie brands on my radar! Great video, Katie!

[boborebluecollection]

Thanks for mention our bag in your video, we would love to gift you one to support your creation❤😊

Omg the bots have completely taken over the comments here!!!

[notyou]

Sorry, but how is a $ 500 bag mid range???

[anisaayann]

What's up with these weird comments

[LomaxVanegdom]

You have the funniest way to put the *hotdups* . Love your way of expression, you always make me smile.

Your video gave me some new insights. My first designer bag Fendi is in 2022. Louis Vutton is in 2024. In the meantime, I use Coach, Torry Burch, Fossil, Tumi. I was surprised to find that I have about 8 *unidups* bags and none of them are over $300. That's not enough by my standards. I'm a working mom and I go to the office every day. Not to the mall or coffee shop much. So yes, I'm glad I got my dream LV. Two. I also got Fendi. So I think I'll hold off on buying any other luxury brands to make more use of what I have now. Thanks for your inspiring video.
