Here's an oldie but goody. Introducing my pre-loved 18 year old Alma. I've been searching for one in great condition for so long and I wanted one made in the 90s. This one was MIF in 1998. I'm so happy!
Just got the all vachetta, mine looks just like that. I was light when i got it but it darkened after conditioning because handle was really dry.here's my mum's s/o vvn Alma (and others):
not sure if this is allowed. sorry i don't have solo shots of it. but i thought it'd be nice to share with you ladies
i wasn't an alma girl until i got the all vache but now that i have it I love the style and will Need, not want, a mono. Yours is in incredible condition. lucky You!Gorgeous!
I always wonder how does dry venchetta looks like? Does it peel? Could you elaborate more when u are free? ThanksJust got the all vachetta, mine looks just like that. I was light when i got it but it darkened after conditioning because handle was really dry. View attachment 3424320
Yes, one of the handles actully did start to peel and was cracking. When i had it authenticated here, they told me they would not have conditioned it and the seller advised against it also so that it would stay light. But then I would have had to get the handles replaced which could have been an option, but, I am not addicted to light leather, I am not afraid of a little patina so i don't mind that it darkened at least now i know that the leather is not dry which is a killer for leather.I always wonder how does dry venchetta looks like? Does it peel? Could you elaborate more when u are free? Thanks
I love my Alma Pm. I love Coach too but I was browsing their online store today and I saw this.

Looks very similar to Alma but looks pretty otherwise. [emoji33] Thoughts?
