Hi Saira,

I search around,i see names like "rollerball" or duffle bag. But still can't find from the reference library.... :shucks:

Anyway, can you identify what year color? I won this bag ! Appreciate :smile1::smile1:

Hi there. Like I said, I am really not familiar with this style and sometimes the colors of the moto line do not correspond to the colors of another line. For example, the Papier line usually has different color schemes. It looks like Grenat to me and could possibly be from 2006, but I really have no idea and it is just a guess. Congrats on your new bag!

ok Saira, understood !
Sorry for asking again. Just excited about my new "toy" and would love to know her better :D

Thanks again !
 
Ladies I'm at it again!

So after some research I discovered this is a besace messanger (I think, not a "motocross day" like the seller is calling it). Seems these bags were made in the early 2000s (2002 and 2003) and mid 2000s (2006-7?) and possibly later? Anyway, the seller calls it "pistachio" but I thought pistachio wasn't this marbled looking (also that was a 2004 color)? Maybe it's light olive from 2006? Can anyone chime in?

This is vert thyme.

Looks like a 2008 Giant HW Besace to me in Vert Thyme! I believe the 08 models came in 2 sizes - Besace and a larger Maxi Besace

Oh wow I was way off! But I guess not as off as the seller who thinks this is pistachio! :p Vert Thyme was a chevre leather, right? That's what a cursory search of old yoogiscloset ended listings tells me. Do you think the leather of this bag is the normal amount of saturation of the vert thyme color or is it faded (and thats why they think it's a different color)? Here's an up close pic. Thank you again for your fast response!

I believe it is chevre. It does look faded to me, but not too bad. Most vert thyme leather I have seen looks like this, so nothing out of the ordinary. Yoogis probably just went with whatever the seller told them. Pretty color!
 
Hi all, please help me to identify the color and year of these 2 day bags... I think the left one is truffle. I also wonder why the leather looks so different. Just recently bought from ebay.
