I like the picture of the bag, but I saw it IRL at NM, and wasn't a big fan of it...

It looks much better in white. But still, it's a cute bag.

It's a clever design.

I prefer it as a hobo, personally.

Hmmm, that's not good at all, is it?

They obviously need to work on their QC.

She is not scary looking, she is beautiful, just needs to eat. MAddox weights more I think... great bag, I might need one now. LOL
I think there should be a Botkier sub forum.

Because of my ponderings above, I wrote to Botkier. Jinnie said the bag hasn't changed, though dimensions may be listed differently on different stores' sites. "The measurements could be different, depending on how they measure the bag since it could be worn as a hobo or a duffle. Our measurements are as follows: 17 x 5 x 16 1/2 (14" handle drop as hobo, 6" as duffle)."

White Botkier -
Hey everyone, I am new to the forum - wanted to support that the creme colored Botkier is not a consistent color. There is one for sale on eBay for a much cheaper price and if you look closely you will see the inconsistency in the color. I asked the seller and she said that it was uneven. I really appreciated the honesty. If I get one, I would go for the black or chocolate.
Peace - E

For your viewing pleasure...a couple of Botkier bags from the Autumn Winter collection that I have to hand.

I really like the shape of the large grey one, but not so fond of the colour. It reminds me a bit of the YSL Muse?
