Hi drati,

Here is a pix of my '09 Blk RH PT...Hopefully, you can see mine to compare with yours...I have another pix coming up from the side too. OH! and I counted the stiches on my handle...I have 22 on each handle.

Hi Reresaurus!!! :yahoo: You're welcome!!! Since this is my first Bbag...I can't compare it...but because I have so many things in it...I can't carry it on my shoulder..LOL!! I've been trying to send pics of my Bbag in a profile way...but my Iphone is not working. Aarrggh.
Maybe because of all my things in it...it made the handle stretch?? Hmmm.
 
Hellokitty, was it your picture I linked to earlier in this thread?

In this pics the handles look about the same as on my 09 part time. Shorter than the 07/08 ones. I think your handles may have stretched through use already perhaps ...

I just had a look at balenciaga.com, the online shop. They have two pictures of a part time. The black one looks like it has the longer handles (could be a picture from last season) but the mandarin part time looks like it's got shorter handles. Weird.
 
Hi Drati,
Oh yes!!! That is me...BUT long story short...I had returned that bag, to get a Ferragamo, because it was on sale...BIG BIG mistake...can't return it. Anyways, my DH said I can go and buy my Bbag again. My 1st purchase was from NM. The more recent ones are from the B store. I think I have posted a site when I first got it home. I just checked the site where I 1st posted the pix ok my Bbag when it is new...it is under the heading... Yay! I've finally got my Bbag
I would of pasted the site here for you, but I don't know how to use it here on the phone. If you can find that picture, u can compare it to the one I sent for this post. It does look like my handle did stretch.
 
I just had look at wander's pictures in the part time clubhouse section. She has a few 09s and the handles look all different lengths. The handles on her black 09 look long but those on framboise and praline look shorter.

Maybe there were different production runs and the handle length has changed somehow.
 
looks like there's inconsistency again at the bal production line? would you take it further, drati? why oh why would you part with the 07? sorry if you've said why and i'd missed your comments. it just looks so black and smooshy! and i finally see the elusive olive shopper! nice.
 
Oh noooo!! I can just see myself now shopping for a Bbag...I'm going to have my SA bring out like 5 Bbags for me to test out the handles, along with me checking out the leather!! LOL! I am very picky.
 
YAY! My Iphone picture finally went through...(I don't use a big computer @ home, only through my Iphone) Hope you can use that to compare with your bag too. Now that I think about it, I hope the handles for the Work bag will be longer...not that I will be getting it for my Bday though...:tdown:...I have to wail till Xmas, so by then...I hope they will still have the Raisin color, and the handles will be long.

HelloKitty, your handles look a lot like mine. Def shorter than in previous seasons. I don't mind though, I think the bag looks better this way. Yours looks delicious.
 
I've followed this thread for a while,
I think the 09 handles do look a lot shorter than previous ones,
I'm going to buy a RH Part Time from AR, but now with the shorter handles I'm not so sure about the purchase anymore...
The reason I go for a PT is the longer handles that could fit over my shoulder easily.
Very disappoint about the shorter handles. :tdown:
 
Hi chaoyichien...I am now bummed because, I had no idea there were longer handles. Grrrrr.
I have my eye on the Work Bag now...but I want to see the color of the Raisin bag first. Forgot when its coming out.
I hope the handles will stay long for that bag.
