I tortured a leather bag! (for good measure)

- Welcome to my review of the Dooney & Bourke All-Weather Leather Crossbody 22! I put this bag through rigorous tests to see if it lives up to its waterproof and all-weather claims.
In this video, I subjected the bag to rain, sun, snow, and ice water to test its durability. This process usually ruins regular leather, but I wanted to see how this "All-Weather Leather" would hold up.

I would like to see you deconstruct one of their Florentine leather bags. I've had my eye on one of their satchels for a while now.
This format is much more fun
But as always, you're so informative. Thank you for always giving honest review and letting us decide
Glad you like them!
I'm so happy you did a current D&B review! Hands down Dooney is the BEEEESSSSSTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤
The original All Weather Leather bags were made in the USA. The leather on those bags was actually thicker and the hardware was solid brass. They were also unlined like vintage Coach bags. Like so many companies though, the bags are now made overseas to save on costs. Still a quality product though!
2:13 you should take a look at the other line that the Dooney founder created - Henry’s Leather Co. Their Henry’s Crossbody bag is a close dupe to the Hermes Evelyn. On the archive of the Henry’s website, the pebble grain leathers come from Les Tanneries Roux, and they use palladium hardware.
Didn't know that. I will check. Thank you
Btw, I also live in DFW. Laying the bag on the car's hood in the dead of Summer was the biggest test of all. The fact that it survived the hood's 150° is what REALLY proved how amazing the leather is.😂
D & B bags aren’t so trendy, but they’re solid and quality, especially the vintage Made In America ones. I have several, both recent and vintage, and they’re both classy and absolute workhorses. I’d rather have “all go and no show” rather than vice versa, myself, if I had to choose.
These vintage D&B all weather bags are some of the best I've ever had the pleasure to touch and hold in my 30+ years collecting bags. D&B are basically unknown here in Northern Europe, the ones I bought from the USA wouldn't be worth anything here if I tried to sell them, noone cares about them. Mine are all black pebbled leather, all weather.
I have found 2 db bags at goodwill and they’re my favorite. The straps feel like soft bridle reins
I don’t miss a day a week *gtdupe* This show.
I've had 2 of their bags for 30 years and they are beautiful. The bucket bag looks new and no other brand compares to it.
Love my Dooney and Bourke bags. I have some vintage that still look fabulous.
Would love to see you deconstruct a Dooney and Bourke Saffiano bag, and compare it to Prada and Michael Kors.
Sir, because of you, I just bought a bag from Rebecca Minkoff. And now I am looking in the website of Doorney and Bourke.😂
Great video! My first bag was a Dooney in the 90’s so the brand will always have sentimental value. I would love reviews for Tory Burch quilted, Mulberry and Kate spade quilted.
Please test Mulberry 😊
The Dooney and Bourke Florentine leather collection is vegetable tanned Italian leather. It’s one of their higher end lines and the construction and hardware quality are a step up overall. Since you have said that you love a good natural leather finish, you should take a look at those.
Dooney🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 FINALLY!!!! I love Dooney and Bourke❤❤❤
They deserve all the praise!
@@tanner.leatherstein do you think you’ll ever test out their Florentine Leather bag?
@@rhondabeard7012 or the Alto leather
I love Dooney, too!!!! Have many of their bags.
Thanks for covering this! Their leather quality tbh is amazing.. one of the most amazing leathers in handbags i have ever felt. I own a few and they have been with me for 8 years.. tbh the quality of their works are more impressive than so many “luxury” brands
please do FLORENTINE SATCHEL BAG!!!!!!! I have never clicked on a video so fast lol!!!
Wow you went all in on D&B ❤ It’s one of my favorite brands I love the natural Florentine the best !
I really enjoyed this fun type of video. The Italian leathers from Dooney and Bourke are the Florentine and Alto collections. They have several different collections on their website and different types of leathers. Thank you for reviewing this one as I wanted to know if the new version was as good as the vintage all weather leathers.
Thanks for the tips! I will check the other leather collections as well. This video made me more curious after seeing their leather taste
Agree! Florentine and Alto are lovely collections.
@tanner.leatherstein yes, PLEASE review a bag from their Florentine collection. It's full grain vegetable tanned leather.
I have a couple of D+B bags. One of them is from 1985! Still holding up beautifully the other one is a newer one from a few years ago- like new! Dooney bags last forever!
I was so excited when I saw this pop up! I’m especially excited to see it deconstructed and put to the test. I knew it was a great brand. This is what the website says about the hardware. Vintage double 24k gold and black gold plated hardware, at a 0.25 micron thickness. A thicker plating would probably raise the price point a bit. Thanks for the very informative look into Dooney & Bourke. 😁
The quality checks can be more hit and miss with modern dooney but it’s still a good brand for the price point
Another great video! You're reigniting my passion for bags... so much that I went back to my cupboard just now to see what I have held on to. I found a vintage mulberry chilling with some radley bags and a dkny vintage canvas bag.
I sold them on, but I had a handful of cowboys bags, they're fairly popular out here in the Netherlands. Their older models were made out of really thick, heavy hides. Hence why I sold them, they were just too heavy for me. Would you consider taking a modern cowboys bag apart Tanner? I would love to see what you think of them! They don't fall under the category 'luxury' but are they good value for money?
Love these videos! Terrific personality! ♥️
You should do a Dior bag! There’s a huge scandal involved with how they mass produce their items. Your price analysis is very spot on with the pricing of these bags!
I’m so happy you made this video! I have a few vintage D & B bags! It’s to know they’re as good as I knew they were!
I love your voice! Thanks for sharing your lovely *gtdupe* bag / wardrobe collection :) I actually love how you store your collection and definitely an inspiration for me in my future home
Injecting humour and slice-of-life moments: such a nice touch Volkan, this might help broaden your appeal to a wider market! And, as usual, kudos to a fantastic review of an item from a well-respected but currently not very popular brand!
I would like to see you deconstruct and compare the quality of Kate Spade's Katy Top Handle Satchel, Coach's Sammy Top Handle, and Marc Jacob's St. Marc Top Handle Satchel. All 3 bags are currently on deep discounts. This video is very informative! I'm appalled that the interior leather was not cleaned prior to assembly. Unsanitary and gross. 🤮
Another informative video! I love Dooney and Bourke.
Thank you! I might have to add it to my favorites list now...
This is my favorite brand of bag! I think i have like 10 now and the leather doesn't change even after for how many years now.
Love Dooney . Totally worth the price ( I buy it on sale ) I don’t even look at other brands
Thanks alot tanner!! For giving us such a honest review :)
My pleasure!
PSA: if you have a quite old Dooney that’s faded a little, don’t apply pigmented leather cream to it, as the excellence of the All-Weather Leather will come back to bite you! The leather won’t absorb the color and it will look blotchy and bad. Ask me how I know… 🤦🏼♀️
Try their higher end line- Henry’s. It’s supposed to have palladium hardware
Thank you for your insights! I own a few D&B pieces and held up great over the years 😊
Thank you for your insights! It's great to hear that your D&B pieces have held up well over the years 😊
great video, fun, entertaining and informative!! thanks for putting a lot of effort to help consumers 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for watching!
Hi 👋 Tanner fellow Texan Here!! I’m not surprised but I am relieved 😅 us Dooney lovers say the same about the dust bag but I would rather have a great bag at a great price than a fancy dustbag. It keeps the dust off anyway 😂 justbFYI they source a lot if their leather from Italy but their Alto Collection in particular is the one that is actually made in Italy and reflects the price. I have been a Dooney lover since I was in highschool when I could not afford it and finally I have well let’s just say several 😏 it’s an excellent brand I am so glad you did a review on a current bag and I am sooo happy it past the test. To me Dooney is beyond luxury. THANKS FOR REVIEW and evil 😈 Tanner you were a blast. BTW I’ve been watching for a long time this one got you me to subscribe. 😉 👛🛍️🚢🙏🦆
I had a few D&B bags, but gave the last one to a friend a few months ago. I loved them all, but needed space for a couple of newer bags, and know that after 20+ years, I got my use out of them. Besides, the forest green hobo bag, which came with a change purse, was a great bag-but its lack of structure made it impossible dor me to find anything. This is a me problem, not a bag problem. There was a while there in the 2000s when D&B had some It bags, but I always put them in the Coach category before they hit it with the Tabby. Simply american leather brands with a ton of variety and bags that wear extremely well.
Dooney is known for their All Weather Leather. It's so crazy how they have perfected it so well that it has minimal finish while STILL being "weatherproof." But, yes, their dust bags are some of the worst on the market!😂😩
Thank you for doing a Dooney review! PLEEEASE review something from their Florentine collection. It's full grain, vegetable tanned leather.
My favorite handbag brand for over 30 years now!
As a long time fan of Dooney and someone who has several All Weather Leather pieces, I found this to be very interesting--as well as being entertaining. It's not every day you get to see someone drive around with a bag attached to the hood of their car! I'd like to see you do a review of an Aigner bag, they have recently revived this brand and I am curious to see how the quality compares with other bags as I think the pricing is ridiculous.
Glad you liked it and I will check that brand as I haven't heard of them before
I remember Etienne Aigner having a great reputation over 30 years ago, but I’m always concerned about what happens to a brand when it’s founder dies and I couldn’t find any info that indicates that the brand remained in the hands of family or anyone committed to maintaining the brand’s quality.
I have an Aigner bag that’s over 30 years old. It’s a structured leather bag in tightly woven leather that looks like raffia. It’s a classic design and it’s in excellent condition. The bags I saw on the brand’s website looked like they’re inspired by the current trends and outside of bearing the classic Aigner horseshoe logo, none of the bags gave off classic Aigner vibes. But the times do change.
@@wannabe41 Agree completely. I was a huge fan in the past, but the brand has changed hands several times and now they've dropped the Etienne part and are just going by Aigner. I even have some questions about their "story" as well, and the pricing is way more than what it ever was in the past, even with inflation. That's why I suggested them, I get fakery vibes big time.
Love this format of review! I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on the Kaai Pyramid bag
So glad you tested D&B, a faaaaav
Dooney and Bourke is awesome!! If you wanna nice affordable bag, I definitely recommend this brand. My mom has 2 All Weather bags from the 90s that are still in decent condition. I would like to see a review on the Florentine and Alto leather collections from Dooney and Bourke. Those are the higher end collections.
Thanks for the video. Could you please cover Mulberry bags soon?
Thanks for watching! Mulberry bags is on my review list. Thank you for the suggestion!
It is possible to make aniline leather just as waterproof. Triple tanned, chrome, mineral and veg combined with high density oil and waxes and pfte stuffed at multiple stages. There is also russia leather if all natural is wanted. Finishing the leather with pigment is just a cheap practice that has no place in quality craftmanship. Also considering the bad QC of this bag i would not call that price multiplicator justified. Thanks for letting us know to avoid it though!
Thank you for the great review.🙏❤️
Dooney is my weakness. Their Florentine leather collection is my ab fave. The Florentine and the Alto collections are from Italy--I think. Don't quote me, but do test them.
What a fun test! 😄
Right! Haha, thank you!
Great review, thank you for sharing. Can you do a review on the leather bags, shoes, wallets etc., from the 80's era made by Etienne Aigner. If I remember, many of the items were actual real leather and not vinyl similar items of today.
Haha! I am truly leathertained! Your videos are like dark comedy. Keep it up. Btw, i Love Dooney and Burke. ❤
Haha! I'm glad you find my videos leathertaining! Thank you for the support.
The dooney line the made in italy is the Alto collection, the florentine is Italian leather but i think made in Vietnam
Dooney and bourke is my absolute favorite brand i have over 100 bands from the brand, my favorite is florentine lether
will check that leather next. it seems like their leather taste is very aligned with mine :)
Another great video, Tanner! I would love to see Frye & Cole Haan bag reviews. I'm both sorry we're losing you to Spain & jealous! Are you & your family taking Spanish lessons?🥰🌻
Yes, I will do a Frye soon. But I have done some Cole Haans plus I used so many of their products and love them for the most part. We will take Spanish lessons as soon as we arrive there in September. We will be back to US at some point perhaps after a few years there.
Can you please do a review of Maria Oliver bags? It’s a Spanish handbag brand that uses exotic leather, but priced relatively more affordable compared to most premium luxury brands. I bought one last year and absolutely loved it, and I am considering buying another one.
They raised the sale price of the bag. It's now $269 sale 😢.
My mom bought one kislux and she loves it. It had been there for over 10 years when she went out with it.
I would like to understand more about the craftsmanship and leather quality of the brand Balenciaga, particularly their edge finishing, stitching, and leather quality. There's very little testing or information available on these aspects. Additionally, I'm curious about the term "waxed leather" and why brands like YSL, Balenciaga, and Prada seem to have issues with leather easily cracking.
I think Balenciaga is still cancelled.
@@HauteGemsDallas Really? In fact, the advertising incident that caused a stir is already a thing of the past as of 2022. I don't quite understand why some people still consider it so important. As far as I know, the brand Balenciaga always incorporates elements that may be satirical into its designs or advertisements. I think that particular ad, although not very dignified, could also have been intended to satirize certain things. You may not know, but unlike in Europe and America, there wasn't such a huge wave of protests in the Asian region. Although there was an impact, sales in the Asian region have continued to steadily rise after the designer's apology. This also proves that consumers in Asia actually don't mind this controversy as much as you do.
@@lunmeng395 I'd be surprised if he will cover that brand, that's all.
How about reviewing coach outlet leather bags and portland leather bags.
He's done both of these brands already. Check his video list, I believe both in the past year. He didn't torture those bags though! 😂
You didn’t tortured that bag… you literally gave the capital punishment 😅 ☠️
No, I haven't gone that far yet. I am saving that for the Birkin :) Hahahaha
20 years ago I washed a white B Makowsky leather bag in my washing machine and air dried it. It came out beautifully! However, I don’t think I would have a good result if I did that with bags made recently.
Fabulous video. Would you consider reviewing Patricia Nash if you haven’t already
Love this video.. so funny! ❤
Dooooney! 🙌🏻
No matter the appearance or the metal parts of the amzwatch I believe that as long as you are not a practitioner, you will never see any difference
I thought you had moved to Europe but if you're still in Dallas, hopefully I'll see you drive around with another bag strapped to the hood of your car! 😄
The original made in USA D&B all weather bags were simply great and tough. IMHO, since their production went to China, their quality rapidly went downhill.
Please review BASILE handbags 😊
Yaaay dooney and burke! Is my current go-to? I think they are BETTER THAN COACH! 😊
Definitely pleased with what I saw here. Might be one of my new favorite brands!
Wow!!! I feel validated in my choice of Dooney, especially Florentine, bags.❤🌻
Gigi New York!
Rebecca Minkoff has a similarly styled bag. Not sure if they say its water resistant tho.
Love your channel! Can you dissect a leather bag from French brand A.P.C. please 🙏🏼
Thank you for you kind words! A.P.C. is already on my review list.
Hi, can you do some reviews of other leather products such as leather jackets? leather shoes?
Yep, love Dooney & Bourke ❤. Well made, genuine leather, & no stupid games like LV or Hermes.
Very straight forward value delivery. I like seeing that as a leather enthusiast
Agreed. No unnecessary theatrics I have to pay through the nose for; just a solid, quality, classic bag that will last for decades and not go out of style.
My vintage All Weather Leather bags and shoes are some of the best I own.
Could you do the celine Classic Box Bag please
Dooney girl here, 90% of my bags are Dooney and they are very durable.
Can you take a look at their Florentine bags?!?!
please test the bags of Maison Guibert Paris ❤❤❤
Good to know.
Please review The Horse
Yay time for Dooney! No one loves those dust bags. I knew this would stand all the tests! 🙌🏼
I think it is better if they don't send a dust bag
I was thinking that too; does anyone actually use the dust bags? I just repurpose em for shopping bags. If I use a purse rarely enough that it gets dusty, surely I should rehome it…
The bag looks good, it looked like if Hermes & Longchamp have a child.
Is it too much to ask for Givenchy bags review. Antigona is one of their classic models, which unlike many brands sometimes goes on sale and retails at quite an affordable (for luxury brands) price point of £13-14k. I am quite curious to hear about the quality of the bag. It is quite structured but is also soft and the leather looks not too processed.
My first expensive bag was a DB -I was 22 yrs old -I’m 46 now-took me forever to save up and I’ve been a fan ever since.
glad to hear your good experience with the brand. Indeed it proved that they use very high caliber leathers and their price is not bad for the quality
Wow, that’s a great review! Thanks
Thanks for watching! Glad you like it
Tory Burch Please!
Lemaire please!!!!!!! I love their croissant bag but it peeled by using the bag only once!!!!
Amazing video and content as usual . Just thinking that it's always better to avoid showing the front of the house / street 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you for the kind words! I appreciate the feedback and advice!
Heyy can u review row margaux people say its new birkin
LEATHERTAINMENT!!!!’
Honestly Dooney’s quality has gone way down on some of their bags in my opinion. I have bought and returned quite a few due to poor quality.
@@plannermumsy I think the ones made in Mexico or Italy are still good, but outsourcing never seems to be good for quality…
mont blanc next, please?
I did a Mont Blanc review before. You may watch it here: ua-cam.com/video/7bLcWiSacnM/v-deo.htmlsi=zxLcvuSV9PcqG37M
My first impression at bag torture - hilarious! Thanks for this video and the leathertainment. Off to DB's website now...
glad you enjoyed this new video style. I will try more in the future as inspiration arrives
❤

What’s going on with the sweatshops in Italy pumping out Dior bags? Yes, they are made in Italy, but…
I am hearing that many of those shops exist in Italy as so many bags are made there. Some foxy people set up questionable workshops
Can you text the brand Gemi. Its made in Italy. I bought a bag from them and i love it.
It's M Gemi
