This is my collection of Mark Cross bags. I wanted to share a review because I love their bags and always think the brand deserves more recognition than it gets! Just a few things to be aware of before buying: 1) All the bags are lined in either red nappa leather or suede! It used to be all lined with nappa leather​,​ but the newer bags under the new designer are all suede-lined. 2) The box bags are quite heavy because the leather is wrapped around a wooden poplar frame + leather-lined interior + the hardware is gold-plated brass. The other styles aren't as heavy-- especially the newer styles with suede interior & more minimal hardware. Speaking of the hardware - The old hardware is great! Not only is it gold plated​,​ but the locks are also functional and comes with a key. The way the lock pops up is super satisfying too (not sure if that makes sense 😅). Love my bags and highly recommend this brand!
