Empire Carryall 21

Perfect size!! I have 6 coach bags total, including the chelsea shoulder 30 and the Brooklyn shoulder 28 and this fits just as much as those two. It holds just over 5.5 liters which is very similar to the size of the chelsea shoulder 30 and the Brooklyn shoulder 28, so dont be discouraged by it being marketed as a "mini bag." The chelsea shoulder 30 and the Brooklyn shoulder 28 are both marketed as "daily bags" and both hold around 5.5 liters as well. Its similarly in size (not capacity) as the lana shoulder 23. The lana 23 holds much more due to its height and the triple compartments. But for size reference, this bag is the same length and width and the lana 23, But it is shorter in height. The empire line is known for being luggage-like and on the slightly larger end storage-wise (since they discontinued the empire carryall 26 and the smallest size available prior to this one was the 28.) But they are one of coach's best lines in terms of leather quality and functionality (imo). This bag fits plenty for its "compact" size, and the gussets on the side of the bag are adjustable, so you can unbuckle them and get substantially more space if needed. In this bag, I can comfortably fit: -compact wallet (bifold with zipper, a full-sized wallet might be too big) -travel size sunscreen stick -travel size deodorant -samsung galaxy s24+ (6.3 inches) -full sized sunglasses case -lip balm (glossier balm dot com) -lip balm (ole henrickson) -lip gloss (ilia in a tube) -foldable hair brush/compact mirror combo (like the old school ones.) I even have some space to spare since I fit all this with the gussets still buckled. The leather is so beautiful, as to be expected with coach, but it will be more prone to scratching/scuffs/water stainung since the newer empire 21 models use coach's semi-vegetable tanned leather rather than their standard natural grain which was used on the older models. But the vegetable tanned leather is softer, more flexible, and will develop lovely patina if cared for properly. Its more than worth it honestly. the empire line was a tough entry at the $550 price point for the smallest available size of the empire carryall 28 (before the 26 was discontinued). This one at $325 is much more accessible in price and still fits more than enough for a daily use bag. Plus, its so dang cute since its so compact! Its like a clown car, it looks small, but so much can fit inside!

This new Empire 21 is such a beautifully crafted bag. The toffee color is PERFECT and I truly hope Coach releases additional items in this color. This bag is the perfect date night and brunch piece. She’s classy, sophisticated, and luxurious. Coach’s full grain leather is amazing and makes this bag stand out so much. She also fits my Kindle Basic and the Plaza 18 as a catch all, so that’s a win for sure! I have this in the Black and Maple colors as well. I’d love to see her in Dark Navy, Black Currant, and Loved Leather as well. So happy with this addition to my Empire collection!

As always, Coach’s quality is amazing. This bag is perfect for running errands, and it is the perfect size when you don’t want to carry a lot.

I loved this bag so much in person, I’ve had to place 4 Amazon orders of this Coach Empire 21 toffee color bag, just to get one mfg defect free/ not prior customer return. So happy, my 4th bag arrived today. It’s defect free, in original Coach wrapping / plastic and not a prior customer return. Bag / color is really pretty and would recommend. It’s sold out everywhere with no retailers including Coach scheduled to receive more in this color.

Do you love the look of a Coach Empire, but do not want a really large bag? Then this is the bag for you! Honestly, it is the perfect size. My Kindle fits in it and goes with me everywhere plus a couple of pouches and my sunglasses, it's perfect! I love the color and even though people mentioned the long handles being annoying, I think they're great because I can fit this around my arm with a coat on. It's very grab and go

Very small bag. It’s cute and all but wasn’t big enough for my daily essentials. Definitely not worth the price.

Phenomenal bag I adore it 🥹🖤 She holds a lot and she’s so easy to decorate Please take this as your sign to buy it!!!

First, delivery made me unhappy. Purse was delivered by USPS, box was torn and bent up. Luckily, the product was not damage. I am not a fan of Amazon products being delivered by USPS. Second, purse was Coach factory wrapped, so that was a plus. Third, My first thoughts where "this looks like an old lady purse"....like your great, great, great grandmother with the green peppermints. When you first look at the bag, the handles are a distraction and the purse looks plain, the hardware is even muted. Nothing "pops". But when you dress her up she is stunning! The leather is buttery soft and the handles, although long, are not 2 feet long like the look in videos. No they won't fit on your shoulders, but on the crook of your arm in a winter coat, perfect. Fourth, even though it is a small bag, it holds a lot! Everything that I carry daily in my Coach small Maggie tote fits in this bag. That was a surprise. So, if you are in the market for the Coach Empire for a reasonable price, you can't go wrong with this bag.
