English term or phrase: TC handbag
Dear colleagues, could you tell me what 'TC' stands for?
Here is the context:
For higher resilience than lambskin, we use sheepskin from New Zealand to line 2.55 and TC handbags.
Thank you in advance

Your text says:
"we use sheepskin from New Zealand to line 2.55 and TC handbags"

It seems strange for these 2 terms to be combined in this way if 2.55 refers to one very specific type of Chanel handbag, while TC refers to a generic style such as tote crossbody, tote and chain, town and country, etc. It therefore seems more likely that TC refers to another particular type of Chanel bag. Does the "we" in your text refer to the House of Chanel?

Explanation:
Already seen in the glossary of a customer doing items in sheepskin, but this was without the acronym; some examples:

by the way a "town an country" could also be tote and/or crossbody!
