Telfar
2 years ago
Telfar is one of those brands I foresee sticking around for many decades to come. The versatile, all-inclusive, sleek design of the shopping bags make them easy to transform from day to night looks for everyone. You can dress them up with businesswear for a classier, more sophisticated look or you can dress them down with streetwear for an edgier and laid back look. The only con (if you would call it that) to this brand is that it is NOT fast-fashion whatsoever, therefore these bags can take between 2-6 months to ship and arrive. This has never particularly been an issue for me as I prefer to purchase my bags through the bag security programs. In addition, the longevity of these bags is impeccable so far, so I am all for this approach as well.

The sizing of the Telfar shopping bags, albeit variable, is also limiting. The small shopping bag is perfect for a quick run to the store or a night out on the town where you do not want to lug around a large bag–the most that can fit in this size is a coin wallet, a phone, a car key, and a chapstick. The medium shopping bag is a substantial increase in size from the small shopping bag, as it can fit an entire laptop inside plus all that can fit in the small shopping bag also. The large shopping bag is more of a carry-on/weekender bag, fitting items like blankets, towels, and clothing items inside. I find myself purchasing the small and medium shopping bags, but I can't help but wonder if Telfar will ever consider producing a shopping bag in between these two sizes for individuals who consider the small shopping bag to be too small and the medium shopping bag to be too big.
