is the Kooba PAIGE still popular? Or is it passe?

I've never owned a kooba and think i like the paige (i like big bags)

also do you like the BURGUNDY, BLACK, or RAISIN ?

thanks!

Def. would not say it's passe. I've raved about my raisin Paige since I've gotten her, it's my all time favorite bag and my go-to fall/winter neutral bag. I love it and could never part w/ it!
The only con I have w/ it is that it's a little heavy (not as heavy as Ada, IMO), but if you don't pack it full it's def. comfortable enough for a shopping trip/traveling/whatever.

With history as our best guide, Kooba won't be making any new Paiges. There have only been a few styles that were repeated from season to season, and there weren't any gaps in production. Typically, we've seen styles carry on to the next season with variations in color or texture. However, I don't believe there was ever a style made and then brought back after a year or more.

I keep wishing they would do that with the Sienna though! I'd buy another smooth Sienna in a heartbeat.

I don't think the older, and I am going to call them "classic" Koobas could ever go out of style, like the Paige, Sienna or Jessie, etc..... We still have a great following who are pining away for them to make a comeback someday because they were all so awesome. I would never think the Paige would be passe. Hippie Hobo bags with 2-foot long fringe is passe.

Love Paige!! I would never think of any of my bags as passe.

Look at the new selection of Kooba bags coming soon for fall 2008 on Kooba.com. There are going to be new studded bags. I am so excited I had to post it twice.
