Geta lovers - I am drooling over this 2023 Geta in Etoupe Chevre with GHW on Sotheby’s “Buy It Now” site. What do you think? It looks like a forever bag to me - elegant but under the radar, practical but chic. The clean lines and beautiful skin look TDF but I’ve not seen it in person. I’d be grateful for any informed opinions as I contemplate taking the plunge….

I have this in Noir with GHW. I used it for a week and haven’t used it in over 6 months. I agree with the other commenters about the positives of this bag. However, i don’t like that way I have to open it. It can be opened 2 ways…directly gripping the front of the bag and sliding your hand up or lifting the front flap at on of the two bottom corners. Both methods are unsophisticated but i opted for the 2nd way. My other gripe about this bag is that I can never tell which side is the front.
 
I’m curious to see how you will like this bag after a good use. I chose this bag over a quota bag and i regret it. Give us an update.
Sorry if I gave off the wrong vibe, but this was just off the shelf at my boutique. It was on display, but available for purchase along with other bags too. I got the change to try it on and didn't personally like it. It looks great, but just didnt feel good on me. WOW! I don't think I would ever choose the Geta over a quota. If you don't mind me asking, what quota bag was it?

Oh my bad. I thought you took the Geta home with you. To answer your question it was a Kelly padded 25 in Caban Swift leather and GHW. I went to the store carrying my Kelly 25 in Blue Indigo Epsom GHW. I placed both bags side by side and I thought the bags were too similar and would have the same use. I wanted a small true Noir bag with GHW, which I didn’t have at the time. Idk, maybe I’ll take out my Geta and give it another go. Maybe I’ll feel differently about it.

Wow! A blue box padded K25 😍😍😍. Yea perhaps you could give the Geta another try and it’ll grow on you hopefully. How do you find the interior space of the Geta?
