Do speedies have contrasting interiors like other pieces? purple/yellow and etc...

dr. twiggers · Dec 10th, 2006, 08:11 AM

The only one I know of...and I admit my knowledge of Epi is growing....is the yellow Epi which has the contrasting purple lining!
I do wish they would do more colors like that!

Do you guys know where the date code is on the epi speedy? I ahve been asking around on this and have not received a reply. The two things I have read are that it is ion a tab sewn into the lining, or right under the flap on the handle attatchment the way it is in the speedy mono's. It can only be in one place, whadda ya think?
BTW twiggers, I don't know if you read this in another post, I think your threads are awesome.

Thanks photo!!!!!!!!!! Ya know...I'm not entirely sure where they are...I haven't even checked mine!
If no one replies here maybe Lee, John or Addy could help on the "authenticate this" thread!

On the new speedy (the one with 2 inside pockets) the date code is inside the right pocket.

The datecode should be on one of the inside leather tabs. Probablly under the pouch.

I love epi leather, so hard wearing! Here's my P-TI wallet in Mocha (cannot believe they discontinued this colour

) and 6 key holder in red. Not sure which red it is, it's got gold hardware although I bought it recently.

THANKS AGAN FOR THE INFO, ALREADY REJECTED ONE FAKE! WHOO-HOO! (IT LOOKED GOOD TOO..

)yOU GUYS ARE GREAT.

Ghost55 · Dec 15th, 2006, 03:47 PM

I just found out the name of the yellow! It is Tassil yellow~ FYI

yeuxhonnetes · Dec 15th, 2006, 04:24 PM

here's my one and only Epi bag, the Jasmin in Lilac

. the datecode says TH1022, so it's October 2002

Updated Epi Color List:

1. Mandarine (Orange)
2. Noir-black : Always available
3. Moka (Deep Brown)
4-5. Rouge- Red
a. Old red with blue undertones (Darker)
b. New Red (Looks like Cherry) Brighter: 2006
6. Yellow (Vibrant)
7. Borneo Green (Forest green): 1996
8. Lilac
8-10. Blue
a. Toledo (Brighter blue color)
b. Myrtille (Deeper Blueberry Blue)
11. Fawn (Just like a deer)
12. Vanilla (Very light yellow base)
13. Canelle (Tanish- in between moka and fawn): 2006
14. Pepper (Greyish)
15. Cipango Gold

This is a really good thread! I was wondering what colors were made!

The Canelle is Cinnamon... and I realy like this color. I like borwn's and the moka is just too drk for me. The Canelle really "pops" out.

Does anyone know if all of these were made as Keepalls? I'm a Keepall freak. These are the one's I know of:
1.Noir-black
2.Moka
3.Rouge - new red
4.Mandarine - Orange
5.Myrtille
6.Canelle
7.Toledo Blue
8.Borneo Green

Also, the Moka and Myrtille have been discontinued recently so if you're wanting something in those colors you may want to try and get them soon.

Tpr Speedy · Dec 15th, 2006, 08:46 PM

There was also a color of epi called Winnipeg Sable. It was out for a very short period of time and was a light tan color- darker than vanillla, but lighter than Canelle. It's very rare.
