Just more info on the style. I'm pretty sure it's authentic because the details are the same as on my other City..

Here's an article from Purseblog, dated March 2009. I've read this particular bag (the black and white) was made for the F/W 2008 season.

I've searched the style and clubhouse threads and there doesn't seem to be anything specific. Someone else may have more info but from what I can find it's just a style that was made for a couple of seasons and not as a limited edition. I've found G21 and classic HW and a few different colour patterns, one with embossed croc on the leather bits. That's it so far...
EDIT: Just found a GCH one in red...

But why is shoulderstrap shorter than on my other city? And the bag a bit larger???
I have no idea...it would be interesting if someone else could measure theirs...
Does anyone know what this is? I check in the reference library, but maybe I just didn't check close enough. I fell off earth when the giant hardware came out.

It almost looks like they poked the sides in on a Work bag. As usual TRR hasn't posted anything helpful re: pics. I've personally never heard of a Bal trapeze bag.
Thank you. I can't find this particular style anywhere. It doesn't look full leather but I don't know if the material is canvas or something else. Sigh!
ETA: Found it!

Balenciaga made bags out of various materials over the years, pony hair, linen, man-made materials (I have a denim trimmed with boar leather from 2005 if I remember correctly).
Hello! Is anyone able to identify what season this colour is from? I'm guessing that it could be a vert pinede?
Also, noticed the fabric of the zippers are slightly different than the rest of the leather body. Could it be just the lighting? Is this normal or is this color discrepancy due to discoloration of the bag?
Thanks in advance!

It’s 07 F/W Pine in my opinion.Hello! Is anyone able to identify what season this colour is from? I'm guessing that it could be a vert pinede?

My guess is also 07 Pine. Get a sharp photo of the metal tag if you want a confirmation'
