Discuss: Current Color/Leather Availability

What is the pliability of swift? I know chevre is a bit stiff...I think I would like a Bolide with a bit of mou to it since I need a really durable everyday bag, and I fear the chevre might scratch more easily, especially on the corners. Or, is chevre suitable for everday use?

I did try on a 31 cm orange chevre Bolide in Bal Harbor last weekend....I felt like the heavens had opened up and the angels began to sing! Gosh, what a gorgeous bag it was!

^^^Swift is definitely more pliable than chevre, just make sure you ask for a mou Bolide (that's the squishy version vs. the stiff one).

Try a Bolide mou in togo, I have one and it meets all your criteria!

I heard recently from the SA at Hermes, that they no longer producing Jaune for Birkins. They know this because the Paris headquarter is cancelling off all SO for Jaune. Is this true??

I had been thinking togo would be my ideal leather...I've fallen in love with the turquoise color, and i don't think it's available in togo!

If I could order a turquoise bolide in togo I think that would be my ideal

I was offered for yellow Birkin 35cm with Gold hardware by my SA not that long ago. I am still kicking myself for not getting it!ush:ush:ush:

I remember watching a lovely Swedish woman buying a 35 Jaune epsom birkin with GHW at FSH back in March of this year. An eye-catching color that is.

Yes, noir is Black in French.

There was a color in box called noir nacre. Think an iridescent black. No longer in production. Trama Turgo has a bag in this color.

I am hoping to see the parchment being offered in stores. I wonder when it will appear???

I would adore an 35 cm Birkin in Etoupe Togo. My local store is FSH, I wouldn't be able to purchase until early next year but an asking you guys for input/advise. Are they doing 35s in Togo in this colour - I was disappointed earlier this year when I was told that Clemence (or Taurillon as the FSHers like to call it) was the leather available for this size.

As a Togo-girl I don't want to compromise on such an expensive purchase with a leather I am not completely confident about so would love it if you could tell me if you have seen an 35cm Birkins in Etoupe togo this year? Thanks!
