Please Authenticate This Le Pliage Cabas

manilaboyscribe · Jul 14th, 2008, 11:05 AM

I have been looking for a tote that I can use as a book bag and then I saw this:

Could someone please help me authenticate it?
I'm a bit hesitant about the handles because the seller indicated that the handle drop is 8 inches
I've been researching and the Cabas came out with 4 inches handle drop
Aside from the handles, almost everything is correct (based on the eBay guide I came across: http://reviews.ebay.com/How-to-Spot-...AT:-1:SEARCH:6 )
I also think that the color is ivory
Did Longchamp make pliages in ivory?
Please help as bidding will end tomorrow

It's authentic, and that is indeed Cabas. (I have a Cabas in that same color). I think the seller must have measured the handle LENGTH instead of the drop.

Not sure what "control numbers" on the back means, though.

Thank you very much ballet_russe:)
Just wondering. How do you clean it?
Thanks again:)

Haha, yeah... I was scared to get a white one. You can hand wash it with soap and water, as Longchamp recommends. But eventually they do get dirty.... my pink Pliage has a layer of grey that doesn't come out anymore.
