Hi,

I just bought a 2009 F/W (I believe) Black Classic City and the leather feels a bit different than my other city bag. Also the ropes on the handles are replaced as said to me. I would appreciate it if someone helps me! Thanks a lot!! 💕🫶IMG_0707.jpgIMG_0708.jpgIMG_0709.jpgIMG_0710.jpgIMG_0711.jpgIMG_0713.jpgIMG_0714.jpgIMG_0715.jpgIMG_0718.jpgIMG_0719.jpg

Looks fine to me, what leathers are your other bags?

Yes it has a pocket but the label says it's agneau. It was my first city bag actually so I really don't know about the leathers.. Also I compare the sizes and bubblegum city is longer. So this is another thing I just concerned but maybe it's related about the season?

Interesting that it has a pocket but says agneau, are you the original owner?

Just asking because there's been controversy regarding the last chevre season. I always thought the S/S 08 bags with a pocket were chevre, but maybe not. It's also impossible to know if the paper tags are the originals for the bubblegum.
I haven't t seen any talk about the more current cities being smaller than the older ones. But your 09 looks fine to me.
