MG Review

TheMonogram’s consolidated rating for the Kate — blended from real customer reviews and expert editorial, weighted by volume.

4.5
★★★★★★★★★★
Expert reviews

What owners sayThe grained embossed leather is durable and easy to clean and still looks almost brand new after 5+ years, but the chain is non-removable and non-adjustable, the small size is impractical for essentials, and black hardware doesn't wear as well as gold or silver.

What experts sayA tried-and-true classic that's a worthwhile, versatile investment and great starter designer bag.
