Hi I was wondering if anyone could help me authenticate this made it Italy bag? I'm a little concerned about the 'solid brass' engraved on the strap. Is this normal for this bags? Thankyou

Good day all!

We need to know where these were obtained. If they are listed online, we need to know the name of the seller and a link to the listing.

Genuine Willis from 1993, the leather hangtag is a different color and not the one that came with the bag.

Need a clearer picture of the creed. A picture of the full tag would help too.

Thank you—I’ll try to get better photos from the seller.

1- genuine Legacy Zip from 1997

2- genuine Court bag from 1994. I'm concerned about those deep cut-outs on the D-rings for the strap though. I don't remember ever seeing those on a Court Bag, and not only would they seem to weaken the ring and scratch the he11 out of the strap clips, but at least one of the cutouts to stabilize the strap clips doesn't even seem to be centered correctly. It's mentioned in the description but something like that would turn me off completely. Take a look at the very last combination photo and you'll see what I mean.

OMG! I didn't even notice that. I was too busy looking at the bag itself and the creed.

WTF would someone do that?!?!?!

Yep, the seller says "The hardware where you attach the hook was cut by it’s owner to keep the hook in place(pic #11)" but really, how much would the strap clip really move around anyway? It's not as if the D-ring is 2 inches wide where the clips are going to be sliding all over the place. It just seems like a foolish and problematic thing to do. And why would anyone want what are probably 2 pieces of sharp-edged metal hardware on a handbag?

It just doesn't make any sense at all to me.

Here's a photo from the listing.
