The Row Bags: A Definitive Guide to the Range
Most designer handbag gives away its maker immediately, well before you have taken in its shape. The Row goes the other way, and that single choice explains nearly everything that follows in how the leather goods are conceived, priced and resold. The label was set up in 2006 by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and christened for Savile Row in London, the street where tailoring learned to prize restraint. The company works out of New York City, with a Tribeca design studio since 2012, a Paris office from 2011 and a London office added in 2019. Beyond the brand’s own webstore and a carefully limited list of stockists, selling happens in its own boutiques in Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris and Amagansett. Take this as a row bags overview, running through the families that count, the specifications that separate them and what each one costs. Each figure below is a market price observed in 2026, not an official price list, because the brand issues none.
Spotting a The Row Bag With No Logo
Given no exterior logo plaque and no monogram on any style, identification depends on silhouette, proportion and construction. A small, discreet exterior stamp rides low on the side and is designed to blend into the leather rather than break it up, with a second stamp set inside. Hardware is palladium-plated and finished matte or brushed, so it takes in light rather than flashing it back at you. Linings are specified as materials in their own right, so nappa, lambskin, calfskin and cotton herringbone line the interiors that a logo jacquard would do elsewhere. The same thinking behind the label’s tailoring, where a garment ysl clutch purse is judged by its line rather than its label, is applied without dilution. On the brand’s own product pages, Made in Italy is stated for the Half Moon, Soft Margaux 10 and 12, Margaux Shoulder 12, Bourse Clutch and Terrasse To-Go.
- No exterior plaque, no monogram and no branded fittings anywhere
- Fittings are palladium-plated and matte or brushed, never high-polish gold tone
- Lining materials run to nappa, lambskin, calfskin or cotton herringbone
- A small stamp low on the exterior side, plus a crisp one on the interior
The Margaux Family, and Why It Is Hard to Buy
Say the brand’s name and the Margaux is what appears, yet it is currently the least straightforward corner of the collection to shop. The Soft Margaux 10 has been observed at $3,650, built in 100 percent calfskin with a matte grained finish and a cotton herringbone lining, and runs 10 x 7 x 7.5 inches on a 5-inch handle drop. Specification runs to an interior toggle closure, belted side gussets, protective metal feet and a removable shoulder strap. The Soft Margaux 12 repeats the same construction at $4,350, runs 12 x 9 x 7.5 inches and gains a zip pocket. The Margaux Shoulder 12 is a different proposition at $4,900, with a lambskin lining, elongated tubular handles, the signature adjustable buckles and narrowed gusseted side panels across 14.75 x 9 x 5 inches. A Margaux 17 can be found in leather and canvas at Selfridges, and a Soft Margaux 15 circulates as well, though no reliable retail price can be pinned to either. During 2025 the original was pulled from third-party retailers, and the Soft and Shoulder versions now occupy its place on the brand’s own site; that it has been discontinued is widely reported but has never been officially confirmed by the brand.
The Totes, Top Handles and Shoulder Styles
The Park family is the workhorse of the line and the typical first purchase. Pricing on the N/S Park Tote sits at Small $1,550 to $1,620, Medium $1,650 to $1,950 and Large $1,990 to $3,250, and the variation within each size coming from material and finish rather than capacity. Small and Medium Park Tote run $1,450 to $1,620, the Park Tote Three takes $1,750 to $2,400, and $2,490 gets you the XL Park Tote. Higher up, a The Row tote bag climbs steeply, with Marlo 14 at $5,300, the Alger Tote at $4,900 and the Marco Bag at $6,900. In the top handles it is suede that bites hardest: $3,850 for India 10.00 in leather against $5,370 in suede, and Agnes 15 at $5,000, $5,800 and $4,300 in leather, suede and a canvas blend. Ida is $3,990, Elise and Agnes 12 both sit at $4,400 and the Iowa Duffle reaches $5,180, whereas Idaho keeps the entry position at $1,420. Shoulder styles spread just as widely, from Lori at $1,350 and the 90’s Shoulder at $1,450 up through Alix at $1,900, Parker at $2,900 and Jean Shoulder at $3,900.
The Opening Tier: Small Bags and Clutches
The most affordable row handbags are not pared-back versions of the expensive ones, but smaller problems solved with the same care. The 90’s Bag sits at $1,090 and has become the collection’s quiet cult object, while the Half Moon is observed at $1,390 with a leather variant seen at $1,690 at one stockist. Half Moon dimensions differ between sources, so treat the official 8 x 13.5 x 2.5 inches as the reference figure and expect other listings to disagree slightly. The Bourse Clutch at $1,590 shows how much construction goes into the cheaper end, with a calfskin exterior, nappa lining, hinged frame closure, hidden adjustable shoulder strap, 10.2 x 6.5 x 2.3 inches and Made in Italy on the label. Below it fall the Double Travel Wallet at $590, the Cecily Mini Tote and Ray Pouch at $950 and the Squared Compact Clutch at $1,390. Higher up are the Terrasse To-Go at $1,950, the Dalia Baguette at $2,700 and the Peggy Clutch at $2,900.
Price Bands at a Glance
You can shop the collection by three bands, and those bands hold across every category. Most buyers meet the brand in the entry band, roughly $590 to $1,500. The middle band, roughly $1,550 to $3,500, absorbs the Park totes, most shoulder bags and the better clutches. About $3,600 to $6,900 marks the top band, which contains the Margaux family, the India and Agnes top handles and the Marlo totes. One rule cuts across all three, because suede consistently carries a premium over calfskin on the same silhouette. A second rule is even simpler: the number in a bag’s name is its width in inches.

|---|---|---|
| Entry level | $590 up to $1,500 | Double Travel Wallet $590, 90’s Bag $1,090, Half Moon $1,390 |
| Middle band | $1,550 up to $3,500 | N/S Park Tote Small $1,550, Bourse Clutch $1,590, Parker $2,900 |
| Upper band | $3,600 to $6,900 | Soft Margaux 12 $4,350, Margaux Shoulder 12 $4,900, Marco Bag $6,900 |
Off the Shelf: Archive Models You Will Only See on Resale
A large part of the label’s reputation rests on bags no longer sold new, and knowing them changes how you read the secondary market. The most recognisable is the Bindle, a suede shape with raw-cut trims, a knotted detail and an open top, reportedly retailing around $1,190; the Bindle Three follows, with a padded handle and removable inner pouch observed near $1,700. A structured calfskin flap bag with a metal lock closure and a two-compartment interior, the Sofia has been seen on resale between roughly $2,200 and $5,668. The Devon is a small structured top handle in polished saddle leather, with a top zip, a hidden shoulder strap and decorative stitching. Grained or saddle leather, twin handles, a detachable strap, a magnetic closure and both patch and zip pockets make up the Camden, at approximately 9 x 12.5 x 5.25 inches. Also circulating are the Ascot hobo, the Wander knot crossbody and the nylon Sling 15, none of which carry reliably documented retail figures.
Value, Authentication and Care
Read the following as observed market behaviour rather than investment advice: the resale picture is unusually strong. In the Rebag CLAIR 2025 report The Row recorded 97 percent brand-level value retention, crossing into the report’s unicorn tier of 85 percent and above for the first time and trailing only Telfar, Hermes and Goyard. Single styles did better still: the N/S Park Tote at 146 percent as the strongest performer, the Margaux Tote at 107 percent and the Half Moon shoulder at 106 percent. It is not uniform, however: canvas, nylon, sisal and seasonal-colour pieces routinely discount, and the strength sits in black and neutral calfskin in the signature shapes. If you are hunting The Row for sale second hand, note that the brand operates no public authenticity coding, so judgement rests on stitching density, hand-painted edges, matte hardware and whether the bag holds its shape empty. Care is dictated by the material rather than any brand-issued protocol: a soft dry cloth on calfskin, dry cloth only on nappa and lambskin, a brush and nothing wet on suede, and spot-cleaning alone for raffia and canvas.
