For those who have been lucky enough to SO a Kelly sellier in togo leather, how have your bags held up? Any slouching? Do the sangles dangle straight down?
Does anyone own a Kelly Sellier with togo?

I don't have mine anymore, but there was absolutely no slouching nor did it seem to me that it ever would slouch. The same stiffener is used as in any sellier, so it's a very rigid bag.
omg wait. I was here when you revealed that. such a lovely bag. lucky the new owner
The Togo sellier 32 was my first SO, back when I didn't have way too much experience with Kellys and thought (brace yourself) this would be my one and only Kelly
, so I ordered a 32 to be useful and fit more stuff, and a sellier because it was the most classic.The bag was (and is) AMAZING (rouge H interior, brushed palladium) and I LOVED it, but I'm really petite. It only worked for me when I wore heels and kind of structured outfits. So when I was able to order a 28, I passed the 32 on to a lovely tPF friend who's taller than me.
All about size, nothing to do with Togo sellier which to be honest I think is just about as good an option as chèvre. It doesn't have the chèvre sheen (that could be a plus or minus depending); no spine, but veins (very personal choice); and IMO Togo is more scratch-resistant.
I would totally order another Togo sellier if available and the colors were right and if I were not wanting a retourné this year.
I received my k25 togo sellier aug 2020. It took 27.5 months to arrive after I placed the order. I haven’t had any issues with the bag getting slouchy - it has retained its shape. The sangles droop down when I leave them hanging and it’s been the same since I received the bag. The sangles on my Epsom and chèvre k25 selliers are stiffer.
This probably belongs in the ‘unpopular opinions thread’ but I don’t like Togo for a sellier. I prefer leathers to follow their own tendencies ie retourner Togo has a lovely natural slouch. Like wise I would not want an Epsom in retourner - it suits more structured styles.

For many who dislike Epsom bags, a sellier Togo seems a very good option. I would prefer Togo for a sellier.
