thanks for the article.
not sure about this cabat; i think i'll have to see it in person.

kroquet · Jul 18th, 2009, 08:45 PM

Definitely need to see that one. The pic sort of hurts my eyes.

How about the new shoes?? Has anyone seen any yet??

I'm not a fan of most yellows, so this wouldn't appeal to me anyway. But it's certainly ... interesting, I guess! Thanks for sharing!

I like it, i think it is extremely unique. Frankly speaking after going to Turkey and there were way too many fake cabats in the "traditional" colors that makes me doubt all the cabats I saw on the street, no offend anyone here but in Asia, I must say there are many good "copies" too.

This is certainly something different and my love for yellow and black did not hurt either.

But the price of a cabat definitely is way out of my reach at the moment

That NY Cabat just doesn't do a thing for me. Maybe it's great in person, but I can't see wearing it. Too many other great Cabats. Why make a bag based on a yellow cab? They're kinda ugly.

jburgh · Jul 20th, 2009, 07:33 PM

I'd really have to see this in person. I'm not a fan of yellow, but in the past photos have not done a bag justice.

two more close up pics from sfilate

i called my sa about the ny cabat. he said it was really nice irl. i can't wait to see it although my feeling is that is won't be for me.
i asked the same question- of all the great things in new york- why take inspiration from a taxi. my sa said it was one of the first things tomas saw on arriving in ny.
too bad-
anyway hoping it's fabulous.
also he said it is a waxy calf skin and may only be available in large.
will let you know if i find out anything more.

kroquet · Jul 20th, 2009, 10:49 PM

Maybe it's more of a man bag??? Can't wait for someone to see it and give a review.
