The Most Common Questions About The Row Bags

These are the questions that come up most often about the row bags, answered with what can actually be verified. Treat each figure here as an observed 2026 market price recorded in September of that year rather than an official price list, because the brand publishes none. Where something is reported but unconfirmed, that is said plainly rather than smoothed over. When a figure comes from a resale report, it reflects observed market behaviour and is not investment advice. Ready-to-wear and footwear are not dealt with; only bags are covered. Much-repeated claims that resist verification have been left out.

Who owns The Row, and where does production happen?

The Row was founded in 2006 by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and is based in New York City. Tribeca has housed the design studio since 2012; a Paris office opened in 2011 and a London office arrived in 2019. The label is named after Savile Row in London. Bags are made in Italy, and the brand prints Made in Italy on its own product pages for the Half Moon, Soft Margaux 10 and 12, Margaux Shoulder 12, Bourse Clutch, Terrasse To-Go and Large Slouchy Banana. No further manufacturing detail is published, so claims about specific tanneries are not verifiable. Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris and Amagansett each have an own-name boutique.

Why is there no branding on the bags?

Nothing in the range carries an exterior logo plaque, branded hardware or a monogram print. Silhouette, proportion and construction carry the identification instead. Look low on the side of any bag for a small, discreet exterior stamp that blends into the leather, and expect a second stamp inside. Hardware is palladium-plated and finished matte or brushed, so it reads as weight rather than shine. Nappa, lambskin, calfskin and cotton herringbone line the bags where other houses print logo jacquard, so the linings are luxury materials in their own right. In practice, you cannot place one of these bags from across a street, and many buyers regard that as the point.

What is yves saint laurent the price range for a The Row bag?

There is no official price list, since the brand publishes none, so every figure here is an observed 2026 market price. What was observed ran from $590 for a Double Travel Wallet up to $6,900 for the Marco Bag. Three bands describe the line usefully: entry at roughly $590 to $1,500, middle at roughly $1,550 to $3,500, and top at roughly $3,600 to $6,900. The price depends on material more than size. Choose suede and you face a consistent premium over calfskin in the same silhouette. Retailer prices vary, and stock, currency and season all shift the figure, so read the table as a snapshot rather than a quotation.

Has the Margaux been discontinued?

Nobody outside the brand knows, and the brand has not said. Verified: the Margaux was withdrawn from third-party retailers during 2025, and the brand’s own site now displays the Soft Margaux and the Margaux Shoulder rather than the original. Discontinuation itself is widely repeated but has never been officially confirmed by the brand. The two are separate: treating them as one goes beyond the evidence. The original now trades on the secondary market, where the Margaux 15 reported reselling at around $4,350 to $6,000 and above in early 2026. Treat the status as unresolved rather than settled.

How does the Soft Margaux differ from the Margaux?

This is a reworking, not a rename. Protective metal feet, an interior toggle closure, belted side gussets, a zip pocket and card slots are all new against the original. Soft Margaux 10 was observed at $3,650 in 100% calfskin with a cotton herringbone lining, 10 x 7 x 7.5 inches, a 5-inch handle drop, palladium-plated hardware, a removable shoulder strap and one card slot, Made in Italy. Soft Margaux 12 shares that construction at 12 x 9 x 7.5 inches with two card slots and a zip pocket, at $4,350. A Soft Margaux 15 is said to be about $4,700, though that figure has not been confirmed. Recorded at $4,900, the Margaux Shoulder 12 is a separate shape, marked out by a lambskin lining and elongated tubular handles.

What do the numbers in the bag names refer to?

Take the number to mean width in inches; it is not a size tier nor a series code. The convention holds across Margaux 10, 12, 15 and 17, India 10.00, 12.00 and 15.75, Agnes 12 and 15, Sofia 8.75 and 10, and Marlo 12 and 14. That makes comparison unusually easy, since two bags sharing a number occupy roughly the same width. The Margaux 17 is available in a leather-and-canvas version at a major retailer, approximately 17 x 12 x 9 inches, though its price is not verified. Where a name carries N/S or E/W instead, that describes orientation rather than dimension. Master both conventions and you have most of the answer before the bag is in front of you.

What should I check to authenticate a The Row bag?

Because there is no public serial number, date code or authenticity card system for these bags, there is no code to look up and nobody can verify one for you. The whole job falls to physical inspection instead. Expect stitching that is machine-precise and evenly dense, free of fraying or wandering lines, and hand-painted edges with no overflow, bubbling or thin coverage. The difference in hand is telling: genuine hide is substantial and soft at once and absorbs light rather than reflecting it, while fakes feel stiff, thin or faintly plasticky. The interior stamp should be crisp and centred, reading the logo and Made in Italy, and on the Margaux the buckles and base feet are engraved. Because counterfeits reported through 2024 and 2025 pass photo inspection, the advice centres on in-hand checks and platform authentication.

• There are no serial numbers, no date codes and no authenticity cards
• Even stitching density and clean hand-painted edges
• Interior stamp crisp and centred, reading Made in Italy
• Hardware matte or brushed, closing precisely
• The bag should keep its shape empty

Do The Row bags hold their value?

Observed market behaviour says yes, but this is not investment advice and past figures forecast nothing. The Rebag CLAIR 2025 report put the brand at 97% value retention, crossing into its unicorn tier of 85% and above for the first time, behind only Telfar, Hermes and Goyard. Model by model the picture varied, with the N/S Park Tote strongest at 146%, the Margaux Tote at 107% and the Half Moon shoulder at 106%. For context, the same report recorded the Hermes Kelly Mini II at 282% and Goyard at 123%. Among the softer numbers is Fashionphile resale reported up about 44% year over year. Nothing here is uniform: black and neutral calfskin carry the strength, while canvas, nylon, sisal and seasonal colours discount.

Where can I buy The Row bags?

To buy direct, you have the brand’s own webstore and its boutiques in Los Angeles, New York, London, Paris and Amagansett. Confirmed multi-brand stockists take in Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Net-a-Porter, Mytheresa, FARFETCH, FWRD, SSENSE, Selfridges, Moda Operandi and Cettire, alongside independents such as A’maree’s and Savannahs. Off-price and archive stock sits with The Outnet, where discontinued styles regularly appear. On the secondary market, Rebag, The RealReal, Fashionphile, Vestiaire Collective, 1stDibs, Madison Avenue Couture and Future Reference all handle them. Poshmark, eBay and Mercari carry them too, with the first two flagged in sources as higher counterfeit risk. A warning for anyone searching for the row for sale: at least one non-official site uses the brand’s name, so confirm you are on the brand’s own store before buying direct.

How should these bags be looked after?

What follows is material-appropriate and general, not instruction from the label, since no brand-issued care protocol exists. Whatever the material, do not risk overfilling, keep the bag out of direct sunlight, heat and rain, and store it in its dust bag lightly stuffed so it holds shape. Calfskin and grained finishes respond to buffing with a soft dry cloth, with neutral conditioner used sparingly. Mostly used as linings, nappa and lambskin are exceptionally soft and mark easily, so a dry cloth and no over-conditioning. Use a suede brush and nothing else on suede, which is the most fragile material here: no leather cream, no wet wipes, no soap, no water-based cleaner. Spot-cleaning is the only option for raffia, sisal, canvas and silk or satin pieces, which are least forgiving to water and least serviceable.
