Default Identify This Balenciaga
This is the thread for members to post photos of Balenciaga bags they need identified - either by style, year or color. You must post a photo of the bag in order for others to assist you.

I have gone through the posts, reference library, etc., and can't find a color chart for 2008. Will someone kindly tell me the correct name of this beautiful blue color? The number on the tag reads, "2008 3 115748 D94JT. Thanks so much, in advance.

Can anyone tell me whether this is truly a marine 08 work as I am not doubting the seller's credibility, however this to me looks more like a plomb or anthracite, however she states that it is definitely marine?! TIA

Definitely 08 Marine. I can see the blue. The lighting's just a bit dark. Plomb & Anthra are gray and this bag is definitely not gray. You can always ask the seller for a picture of the bag in natural lighting, but the bag is authentic.

I picked this up at a local shop on Friday, and it passed authentication. I went through the reference library, and I can't figure out the year or color. I took one picture with flash, one without and of the serial number. Please help, thanks!
