How are the Darel bags working out?

[essential]

hello! can someone tell me what is the difference between the old and new GD leather? thanks

i am not sure. i just know that i have the old GD leather based on some stuff i read about on the fashion spot.

Is this the tan from Ballissimo? There are so many versions of this color! I did email back and forth for a while with the Isabel lady, but she suggested that I go through BG. I'm trying to see if this bag is worth the effort to track it down. I really like my grey, so I was hoping for some reviews from those that actually got the bag in the tan-or creme for that matter.

I bought mine from BG.

i finally got to see a GD bag in person yesterday ...and i wasn't as impressed as i thought i would be. i didn't find the leather as soft and amazing as i've been told..it is a lovely bag though at a great price.

Not sure about the quality. Does anyone know where they are made. I haven't been impressed so far (no offense GD owners!):shame:

I have the 24 h in dark brown (cuir grainé, textured leather). this leather is amazing : thick, lightweight and extremely buttery. My friends can't help but touching the bag when they see it! HOWEVER, I must say i noticed a variation in the quality of leather of the Darel bags. Beware and ask to see the seller to see all the bags available before making your choice. I gues I am lucky to live in Brussels : we have a Darel Boutique and no one fights over the bags... I'll keep this address for myself!

I went to Darel today and saw bright green suede 48 h. There was also a dark pink, but i didn't like the quality of the leather (not enough texture in my opinion). I now have my eyes on a 24h camel suede that is sa amazingly soft and thin I just have to have it!
