Black polished goatskin bayswater

[Itz1997]

Hi

I have decided I am now desperate for a Black polished goatskin bayswater. Theres none on .com and i wondered if this means these were rare or something?

Thanks!

I think that every season has its own special Bayswater on .com. This season it is glossy buffalo, spongy patent and haircalf I think. The regulars are NVT, and are always available. So when stock is gone - ebay is the only option. And I think getting polished goatskin can be a bit difficult - but not impossible... nothing is

I believe a few girls got goat bays from the outlets earlier this year too, as a few suddenly turned up?

 

[Itz1997]

Hmm ok. I have emailed customer services with the hope that they can help me source one. I may also call the outlets tomorrow... Fingers crossed!

Yes the outlets have had some recently, fingers crossed customer services can source you one, they are absolutely stunning! Good luck!

Yes, the outlets seem to have them every now and then (I got mine from SM), but I also think they are available, at least have been, from the US .com site!

 

[Itz1997]

Oooohh annaswe I am jealous that you have one! I bet it is a beauty!

Fingers crossed m-m that customer services will be able to work their magic for me!

Oh, I did not think of the outlets I would really like one myself, as I belive goatskin is durable and of course gorgeous! Good luck!

The black goatskin Bays that was on .com is very different to the ones that turn up at the outlets.

I believe the outlet Bays version do not have feet or cloche, and are not lined and the leather is not as polished and supple. There was a thread on here awhile back comparing the two different versions.

I LOVE my goatskin Bays! I found mine on the US ebay site and feel that it is worth every single penny! Good luck with your search.

The outlet ones are quite different to the regular ones on US .com site though. Here are some photos of mine (with cloche and feet) and my friend's, purchased from the outlet so no cloche or feet.

Edit: crossed post with littlestar! You're quite right!

^^ Yes, your comparison shots were the ones I was talking about! It totally made my mind up not to go for an outlet Bays. I wanted one the same as my Emerald Goatskins Bays.

 

[Itz1997]

Oh wow you guys are right, theres a huge difference there!! I'll have to ensure I see before I buy!! Thanks so much!

You might be lucky with an outlet. My polished goatskin bays was from Shepton Mallet about a year and a half ago and it is lined (although not in suede), has feet and the cloche and key. Good luck hunting, it is a fab bag and a great workhorse!

I decided I wanted a black goatskin bays after seeing them on the US .com site and emailed customer services to ask about purchasing one. They were very very helpful.
