matt & nat. canadian brand, vegan leather though.
christopher kon. canadian designer, 200 ish range.
fossil. not a fan of the feel of the leather, mostly the glazed styles, but good quality for the price.
roots. doesn't always have the trendiest bags, but good quality.
danier. overall quality kinda sucks, some lamb leather is nice.

check out the websites, alot of shoe stores carry nice bags too. I'd stay away from mainstream designer brands if you want good quality leather for that price range.
