Happy hunting. Ask for lots of pictures, some in natural light, if possible.Thank you! I’m on the hunt for a pre loved bag in the wine color.
That way you can have a better idea if you like the color.

I don't have the Smith in orange, but I do remember seeing someone post it.OK - I'm pretty tenacious (like hours of research) when it comes to investing in a bag I'm interested in, however I haven't been able to confirm if the Florentine Smith Bag 8L820 was made in orange. Does anyone know?
I've owned Smith in a variety of other colors so I know the bag very well, but apparently not well enough to know if it came in orange.
It's comforting you at least remember seeing it. Thanks for your kind reply @lavenderjunkie.I don't have the Smith in orange, but I do remember seeing someone post it.
What I can't be sure of is if it was all Flo leather or a combination of primarily
nylon with Flo leather pockets and trim/handles.
So, if you are buying preloved, be sure to verify.
Just to follow up on this compelling question, I am the proud owner of a Florentine Smith Bag in Orange. Here’s a shot of her next to Natural for comparison.I don't have the Smith in orange, but I do remember seeing someone post it.

PF: it's hard to answer the question because the color names and resulting handbags aren't always consistent.... either year to year or batch to batch. This is especially true for Florentine leather because the dyes used are vegetable not chemical. So it's myAnyone know the difference between Navy and Marine in Florentine? They look about the same? I have navy flos but no marine, I’m curious.
It doesn't surprise me. Could be a combination of factors.... lighter weight leather toAnyone noticed that the leather is getting thinner on Florentine bags? Noticed the leather on my new micro is much thinner and less substantial than prior Dooney Florentine micros I’ve had.
PF: I'm keeping my older Flos also.... even the big and heavy ones I can't lift.It could very well be to make the bags lighter. That has always been a concern. Yes, I also hate the new flo without green suede strips. I won’t even buy any Flo without that. That’s too much cost cutting for me. I better keep my classic Flos forever
