Authentic Chocolate Brown Twiggy

^^ agreed it's just different, the distressing is nice if you like that sort of thing. It could be a case of an old saggy goat that donated himself to Balenciaga.
Sort of like Star Jones? The goat was fat, lost weight, crinkly skin?

Well, who knows. Seems like the owner of the bag would know. I do notice on the shade chart there's a chocolate/marron on an 05 so there could have been a release so maybe there is a later one with some red in it. It's not so much the color but the leather. If she's that sure it's a 05, it's probably not as nice.

really? i have an indigo hobo bought may 05 originally and the leather is soooo nice. Do you notice a difference between the 04 and the pre fall 05 bags?

Oh sorry..I was speaking in terms of 04 vs the chocolate which was fall 05. I think the turning point was after the s/s 05 bags. I don't think I've ever seen an indigo without really great leather.
