Thank you for watching this (incredibly long) video, everyone! I felt the need to mention I've been airing out this bag since I got it (over two weeks now) and it STILL SMELLS 😩 But what do you think about Teddy Blake? Was I being too harsh? And are there other brands you'd like me to review?

Definitely not too harsh. Many of these kind of brands are promoting themselves as an alternative to the high end luxury brands. With that you assume that you are getting a product that at least has comparable quality leathers and craftsmanship. Teddy Blake’s response to leads me to believe that they are lying on their website.

Oh, my pet hate with all these ‘influencers’ is the tatty jewellery they all try to flog. I had to sit thru over 9 minutes on some girls vlog and the vlog was only about 20 minutes. I gave up actually- never seen such tat in all my life - going on about them being gold plated - every piece! Big deal, Claire’s Accessories are gold plated but sell for about £1.99 and will last a couple of days. These influencer pieces are about 25 quid each. Do they think we all came down with the last shower. They are welcome to make their money any way they choose but they’ve no conscience and no loyalty to their followers. I now cancel them and don’t watch anymore. In these hard times we cannot afford to be ripped off. I am a jewellery seller myself - vintage only fortunately and I always point out everything when I’m selling ….

I sent Teddy Blake an email about 5 years ago regarding the fact they sent me a bag in poor condition that I paid for and influencers get theirs free. Now they are gifting resellers with free bags more than once, and usually the reseller sells them. I bought 4 bags from them when they first started online and then I bought the poor condition bag and they did take it back, but I am done.

For that price point, I’d much rather shop at Tory Burch. I recently bought the Tory Burch Fleming and it’s absolutely gorgeous. I’ve considered purchasing from Teddy Blake throughout the years but there’s something about the brand that’s lacking for me that I couldn’t quite put my finger on. Thanks for this review! I’d hate to waste money on a bag, no matter the price point.

Yes on taking apart the bag. 🙌 It’s definitely more informative and beneficial for your audiences than gifting it. I’m sure viewers will much appreciate the truth of how these bags are actually made of. 🐧🐧🐧

So glad you did a review on Teddy Blake! Truly appreciate all the points you pointed out! The hardware does look and sound low quality. The leather definitely looks plasticky on screen. The problem with companies like Teddy Blake is they can’t simply claim to be a luxury bag company because they want to. Let’s face it, leather and labor cost are not that much, often it’s the brand value that we are paying, and companies like Teddy Blake do not have that 😅 Can we please do Polene next? 🙈

Totally makes sense. Their hardware closures look cheap.

I’ve been a handbag enthusiast for many years now and have always found the different types of “leather” I’ve encountered rather confusing. I had to go by instinct with what feels good or not good - smell is definitely an important factor. If it stinks, it’s bc the material used stinks! I’ve watched your other vids so I want to thank you for explaining the different kinds of “leather” that’s being peddled to us by handbag makers. I totally agree that a $750 bag should be able to pass the scrutiny that that kind of price tag deserves. So many luxury/handbag KZreadrs out there are gushing over bags and sound like sales ppl doing it. I followed many through the years and have bought bags bc of their recommendation. But then months later when they do their “bags I’ve sold” vid tag, well guess what? The same bags they gushed over and swear were perfect they have now sold. I accept fully that ppl have the right to change their minds, but if you do a video hardselling your purchase (as if to convince us just how amazing your taste is), only to back out of it without even acknowledging just how wrong and misleading you were before, that just makes me question your honesty and intention. For example, one KZreadr said she sold her LV Lockme BB bag bc it was too heavy and went on chapter and verse why it was heavy - from the thick leather to the hardware and chain straps - all the things she had gushed at how beautiful those things all were and NOT A WORD abt the weight when she first reviewed it. Review, not unboxing! So now I don’t follow any of those ppl anymore! The worst are the ones with heaps of money (or credit cards) who do one haul after another. It’s just one purchase after another without really being honest about the products they buy. I hate the ones that don’t even know the size, leather type/materials, or color of the items they buy. It’s just “look at what I just bought” kind of mentality. But the most terrible are ppl who talk abt their bag but you only show the actual bag 20% of the entire vid. 80% of of their faces. The KZreadrs I now watch are ppl who actually have something intelligent to say about the item/s they have. Thank you for adding your intelligent observation and opinion into the conversation about handbags. Would really like to hear your opinions abt Marc Jacobs’ The Tote Bag and Longchamp’s leather collections - I have them but don’t agree they are of such “amazing” leather quality as everyone on KZread is saying. Since you asked, I give you 🐳😁

🐧 After seeing all the raving reviews going on for years, it's nice and refreshing to hear a different story. The bad smell would be an immediate dealbreaker for me even without the other issues. I think for young women or girls who have never owned a 200$ bag, this might pass as "luxury", but indeed, when you know better, this doesn't past the test. Thanks for your honest opinion and thorough review!

Thank you! I had been on the fence about Teddy Blake due to the price vs. quality and the moment you showed it here and mentioned the smell I am so glad I recently purchased a Kors from eBay for under $200 for true leather that I actually like for this Fall. I love Dior but I can’t afford it, however it’s important for those of us who spend $200-500 on bags we need to know about brand quality issues like this. Appreciate it.

Thank you for doing this honest video! I know it’s hard to choose what bags are offered to us for our reviews, and I’m like you, I make sure they know it’s going to be honest. You’re totally right, where do they get away with this price point? I wonder if the other styles are this caliber?

Love this and love your work. Keep doing these great reviews! Material, craftsmanship and transparency!

Omg that company response though! Apparently the person who contracted the web content designer did not inform the rest of the employees that the leather is “ethically sourced.” That’s really bad.

Can you make honest unsponsored videos on Polene, Parisa Wang, and Senreve. All of these bags are always with "glowing" reviews but influencers are always gifted these bags so I feel like they don't want to talk bad about the bag - so unfortunately we get a biased review. I've ordered a couple bags from one of the above bags and noticed that the stitching was jaggedy 🐧

Thank you for the detailed and honest review! I’m so glad you got a chance to review it and use your leather knowledge to explain in depth of your supporting reasons. I agree that The Kip looks and feels much better. Sad that sellers are hiding behind technical leather terms to give a more prestigious image and sell at a higher price tag.

Yes to cutting the bag open! Thank you for being so honest x

🐧. So interesting. Yes to taking it apart! It doesn’t surprise me just because Teddy Blake has always looked cheap. I’d love you to do similar reviews if other heavily influencer marketed bags like Senreve, Polene, etc.

Watched it all! 🐧 I am pretty much over the sponsored/gifted bags etc given to KZreadrs who then give an over the top positive glowing review for what seems like a kind of basic and cheap handbag that you could get on a clearance table at Macy's for $49. I only own one Coach Outlet bag, I think it was about $115 or something, and I actually really like it, it was a good value for me. We need to stop putting Italy up on a pedestal when it comes to manufactured goods. For example, there's luxury being made in Romania now. It really varies by BRAND, not by country.

Thanks for doing this video! I have often considered them back when they did the Birkin dupes. I just never pulled the trigger!

Loved this video ❤️ Would love to see your reviews on some popular bags from Polene and Mirta

The marketing around this brand reminds me a lot of start-up-esque, "transparent pricing," direct-to-consumer watch brands like Valuchi. A lot of posturing on "affordable luxury," "ethical" practices and "quality" materials but zero transparency. It's centered around making the buyer feel like they're "hacking the system" or discovering some secret great deal when in reality it's only a tier above glorified drop-shipping.🐧 Also would love to see a Polene review! Mine smelled fantastic haha

Yes, could you take apart the bag so we can see the material and construction. The more info the better. Thank you

I appreciate your truly honest opinion of this bag. I think you have made great points about the quality and the stitching is a give away that there wasn't care taken to sew the bag properly. I am a person who is sensitive to odors and I would return anything I purchased if there was a chemical odor. Your review will save others from possible purchase mistakes.

Thank you for your honesty! I love bags but currently I can only purchase one or two contemporary bags a year. Or maybe a vintage luxury piece if my budget allows. I've browsed TB's site before, almost falling for the hype. But something in my gut always held me back. I'll stick with Coach, Marc Jacobs and Rebecca Minkoff.

And for years I have contemplated buying a Teddy Blake, now not so much 😐

🐧 made it to the end. Thank you for such an in depth review and honest opinion. I saw a TB up close years ago before I was familiar with the brand and immediately thought “huh a fake Birkin”. I got a closer look and saw the branding and later looked into the brand. The bags just look cheap to me. I would sooner buy a coach outlet piece! Great review 😊

Thank you for doing such a thorough review of this bag and comparisons to better quality bags for the price point.ikr you, I found very little information about the company that didn’t sound like it was regurgitated from the same press release and/or company FAQ. I recently heard about them and was looking at their bags, but I felt a bit of unease about those unanswered questions, too, like what they mean by “ethically sourced” and the type of materials they use. This video gave me enough information to go in a different direction. Thank you again so much, and yes-a video on Polene and other sponsored/repped brands would be awesome. Don’t know if you’ve heard of Coccinelle, but I got a bag from them a couple of years ago that I like, but now I’m wondering if that was as good quality as I thought it was. I’ll have to get it out and look a little closer now after watching your review of this Teddy Blake one. 🐧🐧🐧

Thank you for being honest and upfront! Please don’t apologise for what you’re doing when it comes to your review of a bag or handbag company. I watched your video as I have been contemplating TB for years and of course seen the prices skyrocket (as every brand has) they have a new item called the Gemma bag which I was looking at purchasing. Your integrity has brought you another subscriber - thank you for time, effort and experience to inform your viewers and subscribers. You are so much appreciated. 🐧 As you asked if there is any other brand you could speak of I have one as I am considering purchasing the Coach Top Handle Rogue, which cannot be purchased in the USA (I don't understand why as it is a USA brand?!) anyhow, the cost is £650 approx USD 705, if you could give your thoughts.

🐧What a delight to see a long video from the Leather Professor! I was looking into this brand a while back. All the videos were glowing reviews from tiny channels. Even while watching them, I had a feeling that the bags are plasticky and very stiff for leather. The creators even mentioned that the strap clasp you attach to the bag is plastic! Talk about security when the clasp can just break off! Not to mention the wear of the metallic look. I've heard that apparently there are underground sweatshops in Italy these days. I take everything made there with a grain of salt, especially if the price is low for what it is.

WHATTT?! thats crazy!!!! So i bought the 11in ava bag around 2 years ago, in a nude pink croc embossed leather with gold hardware. The inside is a swade. My bag smelled amazing!! It actually smelled so good it still smells like a beautiful high quality leather even 2 years later. The leather wasn't an issue at all for me but the hardware was The hardware on the front of the bag is actual hardware but the zippers are plastic as well as the crossbody strap hardware. That was my main complaint about the brand-- i just felt they went cheap with that. I have noticed, they never sell those bags at full price. I think i paid around 450? I can't remember now. The packaging wasn't beat up with mine and the style of my bag doesn't have a ton of stitching but it looks great on mine. Amelia rose closet has the same bag as mine and she really liked hers as well. Maybe its the style or maybe they have gone cheap the last year or so i have no idea. I'm not gonna lie that bag does look super cheap, and i completely trust your judgment-- but its weird the bag i got was totally different, but it was basically the complete opposite style to your bag and leather finish. I definitely won't be buying anymore though. Also, mine has worn really well its basically brand new look wise but i find croc embossed leather to be much more durable. I would see if they would let you send that bag back and send you another one!

That company response to your inquiry was SO SUS 🙃 You are right, this bag looks like a TJ Maxx, Marshalls or Ross bag but for a premium price.. Thanks for the extensive review, its what we need to know when brands are asking these prices. Teddy Blake had intrigued me but I had hesitated due to their pricing and relatively unknown status. I would echo the other commenters who would like to see unsponsored reviews for other heavily pushed brands such as Polene, Parisa Wang, Handbag Resort, Strathberry and more.

I got this bag from Teddy Blake, I agree with your assessment. My bag did not smell, but strap same defect, rough inside of bag. I really got it for to try out the shape. Never have used any of my 3 Teddy Blake bags, got 9 inch B like, 10 inch K like, then this tote bag. After i got tote, decided it was not the brand for me. Paid around $350 to $400 for each bag. Learned a lesson on that I should of sent them back. I am not one to send things back, just try and learn from my mistakes. Never really looked at it in side of the tote, if I did i wouldhave probably returned. . I appreciate your opinions on this. I have never been tempted to buy another one. Now with Coach, coach outlet always tempted. Love Coach, Rebecca Minkoff, and Think Rolyn. Really enjoy your Channel and info on leathers.

Thank you so much for this video. I have purchased two bags from Teddy Blake both were influenced by youtube videos of people I watched often and still watch. My first purchase was made on December 5, 2019, a bucket bag the Eliza Vitello 12” Black with red interior, smooth calfskin for $329, it shipped December 31, 2019. My second purchase was made on August 8, 2021 the Bella Vitello 12” Nude in smooth calfskin for $329 with a 30% discount so I paid $299 and it didn’t ship to me until October 18, 2021. Both times the packaging was wonderful and the bags are gorgeous and very well made. I still have and use the Bella but the bucket bag was a gift for a cousin of mine. Both have held up very well. That bag they sent you is terrible, I’m shocked and am wondering if something is going on at their factory or if the quality has anything to do with what has happened in the world the past few years. Hearing their response concerning ethically made caused my heart to drop into my stomach. I am extremely disappointed but grateful for that information. Thank you again for your bravery in creating this video for us. 🐧

🐧 I'd love to hear your views on Polene. I'm not interested in buying either brand, but this was so informative.

I do love watching you for the simple fact is you know what you’re talking about and you tell it as it is. Coach has been caught up in a limbo they may have created with the addition of bags produced for the outlet. Sometimes they are cute. But quality does suffer a bit. Though I have bought bags there for my girls when they were in middle and high school. They loved those back packs. I have found out that sometimes in the back they have items from the retail store if you ask. I’ve found a few great bags like that.

On another note, could you please review Strathberry next?

🐧. I totally agree the points you made about the quality of the materials. Companies who are sustainable and have high ethical values have it branded EVERYWHERE because it’s a big deal to them. I feel Teddy Blake makes items for people who want luxury goods but have never had luxury goods so they assume no one will know the difference. I would love to hear more honest non-sponsored opinions there’s not enough of it in the luxury community.

🐧 great video!! Watched all the way. And I would be very interested in you taking a scalpel to this bag … for educational purposes of course! 😁

Thank you for an honest review and opinion.🐧

🐧Just when I was thinking of purchasing a Teddy Blake bag for my birthday. The part that tripped me up was their response asking you to show them WHERE it says that they're ethically sourced. Sir/ma'am you don't know what it says on YOUR COMPANY WEBSITE????? Great video as usual.

So educational and informative.
