REALLY LOVE how you experiment and explore all of the varietals of Bal Bags - you're very adventurous!Maroon Whipstitch City from F/W 2016. I expected to take a look and feel and quickly return this, but it’s a keeper. Somehow the photos made the leather look stiff and unremarkable/unpettable. Not so. The leather is soft and pliable, baby’s bottom soft.
Color is impossible to capture. It’s halfway between brown and burgundy red. I was surprised to find that the short stitches are metal (long vertical ones in the sides are thread).

This one looks particularly intriguing, I never would have guessed those "picks" or stitches were metal
