Monsoon, I love your camelskin aviator.The leather is unlike anything else, thick and sort of waxy (in a good way).
THAT'S IT, EXACTLY! I couldn't articulate what it was about the camelhide that felt different. Thanks for that...

Seahorse, if I had your bag collection, I would never get anything done. I'd just sit around looking at them forever.
Check out the difference in the SS07 Aqua and FW06 Camel leathers...
Both are squishy, smooshy and have that distinct Bbag smell. The 07, however, has more of a depth to the leather, without the added weight. Just like a good mommy, I love them both, for what they are!

Clopin, not sure if you've already gotten an answer, but you can purchase Apple Garde at www.leatherstuff.com. Good luck!

Mimi : u sure got the best & rare collector's bbag...i've seen ur pebbled flat brass, 01 flat brass first as well ur caramel flat brass.....and many more.....even ur emerald classique silver hardware is too good to be true, seein the leather is so smooshy and i love the distressed look. My idol~~~
not leather but it's silk/satin clutch from '04
navy '05 coin purse, the leather is soooo soft & smooth
compared to my caramel fbf '02
black '04 city with the softest and smoothest leather i EVER had!
OMG!!!! whenever i see u posting ur bags, my heart is melting and eyes are popping out
......ur satin clutch is definitely everyone's admire and adore.....best of all, ur city 04 leather is so natural and smooshy than mine (05 city)...it can't be compared.....that's why older bags with older leather is the best collection of all....u won't regret.....
Since I'm too old for Easter egg hunting...I shot a few pics of bags that make me think of Spring.
