Yes, I'd planned to buy it but when I went to the store it was more brown than I was expecting, so I'm still thinking about it. It's still a gorgeous color, especially on the tri-texture bags, and I highly recommend it. Personally I would have just preferred a little more red tint.
Thank you for replying. I'm trying to find a burgundy/dark wine bag for autumn but so far the colour is closer to brown than red in all the bags I've seen.
I've just started noticing this. Just returned the Sonny Dalton because of dye issues. It had been ordered for me in store, because there were issues with the one on display in store! This is after sending in another Brahmin for repairs last week after the dye starting fading within 6 months on another lightly used bag. I'm pretty bummed as Brahmin is my absolute favorite, but no more Brahmins for me.
I'm sorry to hear that. I have 3 bags and no problems so far, though they are all the croc-embossed leather.
I have three too. Two are croc embossed and one is the snakeskin Carlisle. I hope you don't have any issues with your bags. It sucks.
Hey all, I just discovered this thread...deep in the tpf vault. After admiring them for years, I started collecting Brahmin last year when I discovered and attended the September 2015 Tent Sale. Hooked ever since and have been to the May and September 2016 Tent along with a couple of trips to the Fairhaven outlet. It is roughly a 5 hour roundtrip for me to Fairhaven. Crazy I know. I thought I would post my recent arrivals. Wanted to get these before they were gone (discontinued styles). I have both in other colors and love using the styles. Here is the Hudson Bucket Bag in Cocoa Melbourne and Gemma Satchel in Toasted Almond. I just love Brahmin bags!
Gorgeous bags! I've never been to the Tent Sales. I'd have to plan a vacation around it. Brahmins are addicting. I haven't bought anything from this fall but do I have my eye on some.
Thanks! I have some photos from the sale. I will post tomorrow, if I get a chance. It's a good time!
I couldn't resist and ordered the Carina shoulder bag in Burlwood. It should be here next week.

My new Carina shoulder bag. The next picture is the Burlwood Schooner Satchel from last year's vault. Satchel for the work week and Carina for the weekends. Sorry pics are a little out of focus. I cracked the cover on my camera.

Oh, you got the Schooner! I was considering that one a few times. Just could not decide, mainly because there are so many pretties to pick from. Very difficult to narrow them down. Both your bags are very pretty!
Thank you! They have the Schooner and other items at the outlets. So if you're interested you can get it at a good price. Just got off the phone with Brahmin customer service. My coworker saw my Carina and wanted one and while in was talking to the rep she told me what is available.

I have an Alena. I've only carried it once. I like the built in card slots, but thought the zippered compartment needed to be at least a half inch deeper. It was a tight fit and hard to get into. I only had a makeup compact, lip gloss, mini lotion and my inhaler. If my inhaler wasn't a must have it might have been ok. At this time I don't plan on adding another. The design is gorgeous. I should probably pull it out and give it another try because I know the leather will soften.
How do you plan on using it? Are there any in a store you can try out?
