Customers are not happy after learning about the new price of Telfar’s circle bag.

The “Circle Bag” which comes in a signature black crossbody retails for $567, which is $310 more than the largest shopping bag they offer.

Frequent buyers of the brand are frustrated at the new price since the bag is made from vegan leather like the original tote and believes that the price point on this new bag undermines their slogan “NOT FOR YOU — FOR EVERYONE.”

Despite the price change, the circle bag is already sold out on their site. The shoppers that are remaining on the website have not changed in price.

  Telfar didn’t raise the prices of the original shopping bag. That’s what he was sticking too, keeping the shopping bag the same price and it still is. He never said that every future bag was going to be the same price as the shopping bags.

  I don’t like how y’all acting like Telfar can’t up their prices? I ain’t never seen a “Louis Vuitton lost they mind” tweet ever. I don’t get it.

  at the end of the day telfar is a brand and brands are driven by capital, this is not even a little surprising lol i don’t think anything driven by capital can really be “for the people” idk https://t.co/fMY3XwaQAO

  I have a telfar but imo the pricing was already a little high for the quality of the bag. I love it but I can’t say I’ll be buying another one

  If I recall, Telfar promoted itself to be the luxury meets affordability brand so them charging $600 for a small crossover bag is egregious but also hilarious because who couldn’t see where this was going

  never mind the fact telfar has been around for years and is absolutely not an “up and coming brand” …. you see what i mean by y’all will never value black designers as much as you do white brands that elites have convinced you can charge anything and be justified in doing so? k https://t.co/BOR3Q0HuUn
