Hi! Would like again to avail of our authenticators' expertise. Hope somebody can give details about this bag and confirm its authenticity. The dooney tag i think has been cut-off. In one of the pictures you can see yellow threads on where i think the tag should have been. :smile:

Here is the link with additional pictures I requested from the seller: https://www.olx.ph/item/dooney-and-bourke-ID836AA.html?h=bb561fc254
It's an authentic big duck shoulder bag.

There was a time when Dooney used to (try to) remove and/or snip the red, white and blue serial tags when items were sent to outlets. So I'm guessing this bag was probably originally purchased from a Dooney factory outlet store.
 

It's authentic.

Thank you so much @BeenBurned ! Could you tell me what style it is?

I believe it's called a clip hobo.
@Tosa22
In the past, Dooney used to use style names that indicated the functional style type. Different bags would have similar or same names if they were similar styles, i.e. bucket, barrel, doctor, etc., but in the last few years, they've given "fancier" names.

Although there used to be a clip hobo with just that generic name, it was similar to the bag you've asked about.

However I happened across the actual style name of your bag which is one of the newer styles. It's called Annalisa lock sac. Yours would be the suede version.

This one is pebbled leather on the IloveDooney website:

Thanks @BeenBurned ! I appreciate knowing the exact style of the bag. Can't wait to use it. The suede is so soft!

It's fake. There's nothing right about it and the lining is never one that Dooney uses (or used).
