The cement color is actually a brownish grey. Its a great color that can be worn with just about any color in the rainbow, including black, brown, grey, olive, khaki, pastels, brights, etc....

When you put the cement next to the deep brown it appears grey. But when you see it alone its brownish charcoal, KWIM?

As for the Tano stock pic for art house, there is something off about it. It looks to be black with brown seams.... Im not sure what happened with the sample that was originally photographed, but the production doesn't look that way.

Hi TE, is the fire enzo color really as bright as it looks in the pictures? Looks like it may even glow in the dark! Is it prizon uniform orange?

 

[tano expert]

haha its not exactly day glow, but it is indeed very bold!

Hi TE, is the brown Chamois color indeed as gorgeous as it looks in the photos (like the Ghost Writer)? What is the name of that brown? Thanks!

Can Pavlov's Frog be worn cross-body as easy as Lip Sync? The strap looks a bit shorter so I'm not sure. If anybody has a pic that would be wonderful. Can anybody recommend a different bag, similar to Lip Sync?
Thank you : )

Is "crunch" basically gone and now Tano will be manufacturing "lux" going forward?

[tano expert]

Joan, yes- lux is the new crunch.

someday, its from j crew.

Roaeh, both bags are best worn as shoulder bags. I dont recall either one being comfy x body. The strap when you unfold it is not long enough and is too skinny. Like the Biker Babe.

If you are looking for something that you can wear on the shoulder or cross body check out some of Tanos current offerings that have two straps like Never Frou Frou or London Edition or take a vow. There are also lots of messegers that can be worn on the shoulder as well like Mona Lethal, Petit Larceny, etc.

Luv, the brown chamoise is rich and yummy and its called FUDGE.

^Thanks, TE!! I am excited about that Chamois!

TE -- do you know the dates of the Tano Warehouse sale? I tried to do some clever googling and couldn't find anything.

 

[tano expert]

Sorry, I dont. Ill post a new thread with the dates if I find out, though!

TE, of the new leathers, which would you say is most like the velvet from 08?

Also, which seems the toughest/most durable to you?

Thanks!

Hi TE, I'm looking to preorder the Meet Jane...do you know if those two straps will fit over the shoulder? Or is it more of a satchel (with a removable messenger strap)? Thanks!

 

[tano expert]

hi Kimalee

Unfortunately no one will be able to say for sure until the bag hits stores at the end of the month.

The sample at the trade show was a satchel with detachable xbody strap, but changes are always possible- indeed, even likely- in actual production.

Thanks!

I would say enzo is most similar to velvet.

All the new leathers seem pretty durable. I was a little concerned about staining with the bella, but I havent heard any complaints about that at all
