Treesje makes a fantastic bag in awesome colors! Most of the styles are not for me but I have and love, two Ashers (fuchsia and pumpkin) and one Mortale wristlet.

I would choose regular leather over patent leather unless I needed a patent leather bag. But really, you can't go wrong with either.

Other Treesjes I have had have not been heavy at all, just this Asher. Otherwise, I love Treesje bags. The quality and leather is awesome.

piosavsfan - thanks for your thoughts!!! i agree, black patent looks so luxe and chic! but the plum + gunmetal is such a gorgeous combo (i'm a sucker for gunmetal hw!) - thanks for the heads up regarding the weight. i have an RM studded devote and those babies are pretty heavy as well, so i don't think it would be an issue. but unfortunately i won't be able to get either one at the moment due to insufficient funds... however, next purchase i'm able to make will definitely be an asher!!

toni - u have two beautiful ashers!! and i'll have to check out the mortale wristelet! thanks for your thoughts!! it really sucks that i won't be able to get either of the two (they're from an awesome fellow PF'er too!) since i was on a crazy RM kick and don't have the funds right now.... BOOOO!!

Does anyone else have problems with Treesje zipper pulls? The zipper pulls have fallen off 4 times total between my metro magnolia crossbody and my new purple magnolia. The little screw that holds the zipper pull together unwinds and it falls apart. I lost a zipper pull for my metro that way.

Can anyone identify this treesje? Thanks!!!

It's the Marley Mini studded hobo!

Nice Mini Marley Hobo. I have the reg. gray Mini Marley not the hobo but purse.. which is awesome. I've only used it 4 times in all the years I've had it... but I still like it but have so many bags that I've decided to give it to my cousin in San Fran. Mini Marley's are great bags and the leather holds up well.

I have a Pumpkin mini Asher and I've never had an issue.

Does anyone else notice that the Treesje subForum isn't listed on the main page of tPF? Is this how it has been since the style change? Or maybe it's automatic when things don't have a recent post in a certain number of days? I thought it had been closed, but I found it in the dropdown when I went looking for it.

Should we ask about this? I hate to sound whiny, maybe it was an oversite?

It comes up for me on my phone and at home from the main forum page...maybe it's not the page you are talking about though...

Oh, on the first page, there are pictures of the different subforums. You click on the picture, it takes you to the subforum. There are pics for Ebay, all the premiere designers, Shopping resources, Contemp designers, jewelry etc. Rebecca Minkoff has a picture, Michael Kors, Tano, Tory Burch none for Treesje. So you can't get there from the front page. Going to the dropdown directory has Treesje, but there is no pic on the first page. It's too early to explain well, lol. It feels like Treesje is the little forgotten brand.

I wish they'd make a new batch of Magnolias. I could definitely use some more colors. And Ashers. Bring back the tried and true classics we all love. I have 2 Magnolias, 2 Revealed (Love these bags) and one Asher. Need more Treesje

Interesting. I guess I never go to the first page so I never noticed, but that is unfortunate. It seems like Treesje is kind of forgotten overall.

A new batch of Magnolias would be awesome. I have one and have 2 magnolia crossbodies that were LB exclusives. I love them all to death and want more!

ISO electric blue Treesje Asher...

I'm supposed to be on a ban but it never hurts to look (or does it )

Rather than pursue another Balenciaga in similar shade of blue (it would also be pre-loved because recent blues aren't all that vibrant, plus recent leather quality has gotten thinner so it's a turn off for the price IMO); I thought I'd do a quick search for the Asher in electric blue (HW undecided right now). Nothing has popped up. I wonder if there are any new ones around...or possibly, Treesje should re-launch...yea, that would be best

Just found out that treesje still sells the electric blue Asher so it's easy to order. I'm on a ban though so I shouldn't be buying full retail, shipping, duty + taxes :( ok, I have to be patient...wait out my ban etc...

I agree with you re: some new Magnolias and new Ashers, please. I know there is less interest in Treesje as a brand it seems but I really hope these 2 popular classics survive. Having said this does anyone know if the current Electric Blue Asher sold on Treesje.com is the exact same colour & leather as older ones?

I don't know about the Asher...but I wonder why there seems to be less interest in Treesje. It is sad because my Treesje bags are the most beautiful bags I own and are so well made.
