| - I always try to support brands where the products are made locally. So, M0851 was really just the perfect store for me. All their leather goods (bags, jackets, wallets, etc), you name it, were all made in their leather house in Montreal. How cool is that?! It really was nice also to see more Canadian brands popping up in Toronto's retail world, because let's face it, all we really know is, ROOTS. =/* I would say M0851 is a tad bit more luxurious, whereas ROOTS is more casual.
The design of the store is simple but chic; and oh, can I say the smell of "genuine" calf skin leather - was O-So-Nice! My favourite were their bags. If I had a bigger budget, I would buy several of them, but I just settled with one for now, which is their Vachetta Shopping Tote in cognac. Just love it! And might I just add a note, that I can tell the Sales Associates were really passionate about the brand they worked for and were also extremely knowledgeable as well because they explained to me the properties of leather and how they work; and I was just totally fascinated! Literally, the most friendliest service I have ever received in ANY retail store. The BEST! Jackets and coats were lovely, but just a little steep for my wallet as they can set you back as much as a Grand. But I am saving up for one down the road, hehe... because they are just of impeccable quality!
M0851, you've earned yourself a loyal customer and I will be coming back for more goodies as I start a piggy bank just for you. ;)
