Does the Paloma clutch's chain strap detach?

Yes, the Paloma is designed to convert between a handheld clutch and a shoulder/crossbody bag via a removable chain-and-leather strap; missing straps reduce resale value.

Why do Paloma bags lose value faster than the shoes?

Louboutin is still primarily known and valued as a shoe house, so its handbags see thinner resale demand and less brand-loyal repurchasing than the footwear line, which pulls resale prices down faster.
