never paid attention to the Tod's bags but their leather looks amazing even through a screen, I love how solid and steady even the pocketed 00s ones look. Very "we will see you through your day at all costs", almost like the bag version of..... a bodyguard? A nuclear fallout shelter like you said? Or just a really well made bag that's lasted decades.
As for their shoes, I can testify to those being 10/10 as I'm a Tod's loafer girl for life - scored pairs in oxblood and black patent on ebay to be my first post-covid not-a-sneaker shoes back in 2022 and never looked back. I honestly have no idea why they never capitalised on being the loafer OGs post-2020, such a weird oversight every time I see a list of loafer recs and Tod's are nowhere on it, same with the collective fashion amnesia around Ferragamo and ballet flats.
THANK YOU! After reading this, I was intrigued and hopped on to my local Swedish second hand online store. Found a dark brown (I think D bag?) vintage one for 85 dollars, with the J.P. still in the logo.
Just got it delivered, and for the first time ever, a bag is making me FEEL THINGS. I’m not a bag person, but this!!! I’m obsessed now!!
Carrie wears what I think is a Tods bag - it's patent and so sleek with the little oval logo - in episode 2, season 3 of Sex and the City and I've coveted it since watching that episode for the first time. It's part of her "First Lady" look when she's dating the politician who desperately wants her to vote, amongst other things. Great bag but yet to find it online. Hopefully it shows up as part of the next "bag boom".
I bought three Tod’s bags (well, one Tod’s and two Hogans) thanks to you! Love them so much. The leather is gorgeous, supple, and thick. The hardware is solid and elegant. Coming in at about $75 apiece, they feel practically free.
Thanks to this, I picked up a suede one secondhand for $60 today! I don't know why Tod's has always been under my radar for bags, because their shoes are great.

I love to hear it! Feel free to drop a pic! I need to share the glorious City bag I scooped...the world needs to pounce on Tod's.
I’ve been talking about getting a “grown lady” bag for a while and I guess all i was waiting for was this Tods story!! Thank you for your service 🫡💓
My "fun girl" bag I always used disintegrated last week...the timing was right!
Been wearing my Tod’s loafers that I bought on TRR for years. A goodie 👌👌
Know anything about belts?
…a healthy rectangle fit for a laptop (or then, a portfolio)… a portfolio 😭✨🙂↕️ oh the times, the sentiment!

Oh this is a great spotting...going to rewatch and look....also the pee pee politican...!
I’ve been eying Tod’s bags lately too!! Must be something in the water…

Love to hear it!!!!!
Tod's is burning up... also love what the new creative director is doing there! Future vintage in the making.
I also snapped up my Tod's city bag for $200 a few months ago! It’s perfect
Brilliant — that was a phenom era for handbags but Tods never made my bucket (bag) list. Will explore TRR!
If you find that City bag… break into one of their warehouses and get it IMMEDIATELY…
