TELFAR
TELFAR's rise in the accessible luxury handbag market has been remarkable over the past decade, with its vegan leather totes becoming coveted status symbols, particularly among Gen-Z shoppers. Now the brand has recently launched its first-ever real leather bag called "The Carry". Constructed from soft, full-grain pebble leather and features a similar silhouette to its flagship tote with a few modifications.
The brand consciously kept hardware to a minimum and left the interior of the bag unlined. Telfar describes the handbag as a response to "traditional luxury," blending both masculine and feminine design qualities to defy categorization.
Priced between $400 - $960, these prices exceed Telfar's traditional range by more than two times, but they are four times lower than comparable bags. The small is priced at $400 USD, the medium at $600 USD, and the large at $960 USD.
The handbags will be exclusively available at Telfar's new pop-up concept space at The Corner Shop at Selfridges starting September 30. Additionally, Telfar is also collaborating with Wilson's to launch a collection of leather apparel. This move signifies Telfar's transition into the upmarket segment.
