I'm loving it LaBagista09! I've been using it constantly ever since I bought it...the colour definitely goes well with all of my outfits and it's so easy to use and so lightweight. The top handles are very comfy to use on the crook of the arm (which surprised me given the shape of the handles). So far, seems like a very durable bag as well...no fraying or any broken hardware, etc (knock on wood!). This purchase has definitely been worth it to me!

Thanks someday681!

It's gorgeous! Congratulations. I have been trolling the internet to find this color to no avail. For the time being I shall have to live vicariously through postings such as yours. Cheers!

Thanks JT17! Yes I checked Amazon and they only have the black in stock ATM. Hope stocks of the brown become available soon! I'm really loving it and will try to post more pics as well

Too funny - I ended up buying one of the last 2 black Haileys available on Amazon. I bought it at 1 AM this morning and now see that the other one is sold too. Phew! I missed the boat on another Kooba a couple of years ago and have never found it available for resale since, so I figured I would at least grab the black one.

Not sure if the black will look as good (imo) as the brown - in photos it seems to lose some of the detail. But I'm sure I'll still love it and it will in fact be my FIRST Kooba! Yay!

Thanks for the feedback on Amazon.

Congrats on getting the black one! Glad you were able to get one of the last stocks...that was close! I think it's really gorgeous too and one I would've gotten as well if only I didn't have too many black bags. Please post pics once you get it!

I've never held a Kooba bag before so I was very anxious to see how the leather is, etc and when I opened the box....it's everything I wanted it to be! It's a little smaller than I expected but the leather is so soft, the bag itself is so lightweight and the interior is very spacious with just the right amount of compartments. This bag certainly doesn't feel "cheap" whatsoever. The leather smells divine and even smells like my YSL bag when it was brand new. The leather is a bit delicate though and prone to scratches (it already has a few scratches on it) but it does add some character to it. Another let down was one of the studs fell off from shipping and handling which I had to stick again with super glue (I don't want to send this back as I got this at a discount and the merchant -- Amazon -- doesn't have stocks of the Hailey anymore). But after all of that it looks perfect and amazing! Ok without further ado here is my brown Hailey!

Love this bag!

OMG!! So Jealous right now! I'm in love w/ your Kooba Hailey bag!!!! I want!

LOL go get one too!!

I love my Hailey. It is by far my favorite bag of the moment. Congrats on yours. :)

Congrats on the Hailey! I know this is an old thread but it is a beautiful bag! Do you still love it? How is is holding up? I wonder if I can still find it?!

Hi Everyone!

I love the Hailey too, and I actually just bought one yesterday at TJ Maxx in Northern California. I'm so glad that I chanced upon it, since I'm in love with the leather and the color! Good luck to all of you who are looking for one!

Shoebag: Though you didn't direct the question to me, I thought I would chime in to say that after 6 months of daily use, my brown and black Haileys still look fabulous and remain at the top of my favorites list. But I did get an Auburn Annie (from '06) last week, which is proving to be serious competition for top billing.

Jhom: What luck to find a new one now! What color did you get?

oh wow, that bag really dresses up your sweats!!!!
