All I know about it is that is part of the Kristin collection and it was made in 2011.
Another smell bag. 
I can't figure out what kind of smell this is, either. I just know it's unpleasant. I dunked with dawn. I stuck outside. It's better, but still there. It's almost a chemical smell, like "plasticy." Maybe the former owner sprayed water repellant on the bag? Or some kind of strange body odor... The inside of the bag does not smell. Next!! My coffee grounds. It's a nice bag, got it very inexpensively.

Oh, my goodness, but this bag is blowing my Leather CPR budget! It's unbelievably thirsty. I know it's possible to overcondition so I'm trying to pace myself. I apply lotion and the bag is dry to the touch almost instantly. Theres not much if any excess to wipe off. I've never worked with leather this dry and it's kind of freaking me out.
I have searched, I know I saw the answer the other night, but can't find it now. Recommended products are Apple Leather Care Conditioner, Blackrock Leather N Rich and Leather CPR Cleaner and Conditioner? I have a renewed 
for my Coach bags and have added a couple via thrift, etc. that need some attention. In the past I have used Doc Marten's Wonder Balm. Have I hurt my bags with that product? It's made of coconut oil, beeswax, and lanolin.

It does go back into the channel. But it won't stay there. I tried leather glue. Maybe if I use "superglue." And then clamp it with a binder clip until it's dry...If you snip it, will you lose the "rounding" across the corner ? Since it does not stick, will you wind up with 2 pieces that do not stick ?
Can you push this piece back further into it's channel. (I think it is called a welt cord, but not sure)

Is it possible to "pull" enough of the piece down to the open area to make a snip on the straight part? Then be able to push the straight part back into the channel and form the rounded corner where it needs to be - and secure it? (Hope that makes sense - I can envision it better than explaining it. Sorry)
I think what you're describing is exactly what I was planning when I said snip it.
Snipping it on the straight sounds like a plan (had not thought about that) if you cannot "super-glue" it into the channel. The problem with super glue is that you have to work VERY fast, just to make sure that the welting does not stick out permanently,.
