Following a damning video posted on TikTok, New York-based leather goods brand Coach said it would stop destroying its unsold goods.<\/h4>\n

<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

The video of a young TikTok influencer made the buzz. It is Anna Sacks<\/strong>, under the name @thetrashwalker<\/strong>. She reveals bags from the American brand Coach<\/strong>, all slashed and unusable. “I’m so excited to show you all the Coach bags I bought from @dumpsterdivingmama,<\/em>” she said in her video, which now has over 580,000 likes and 2.5 million views<\/strong>. “As you can see, they are all slashed, which is Coach’s policy.”<\/em><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She blames the brand for directing employees to deliberately make products unusable as part of a tax loophole that allows them to deduct merchandise as accidentally destroyed.<\/p>\n
