Identify this Balenciaga

[LostInBal]

Hi! I recently picked up this bag and I was told it is the Velo but I’m actually not sure as it doesn’t seem as tall. Does anyone have any insight? It’s the tempete colour which I love! I’m new to the Balenciaga world ❤️

2005 S/S Teal Blue City RH in my opinion..

it is indeed a City as @aalinne_72 said, Velo would have a long xbody strap

hardly anyone here will have enough expertise with fanny packs to ID it, but i have strange feeling that this particular one is not legit, can you post the tag back and front in the 'Authenticate this Bal' thread, please???

Hi ladies
I've had this Bakenciaga day a few years, any idea on colour and year as paper year tag was missing. I was thinking 2005/6, def chèvre and older day stuck with colour as it has yellowed compared to mirror etc

is there a pocket on the mirror?
could be Naturel from 2007?
or, yellowed White from 2008?

then latest season would be SS 2008, look at the swatches in the ref library.
P.S. Leather texture looks more like 2006, or 2008, 2007 was not that wrinkled, but more smooth, puffed

I could be 06 Ivory imo. I had it in a Courier. Both extra tassels and mirror still kept the original off white color but the bag had totally yellowed.

i can't really tell from the pics, plus colour changed anyway, but leather looks like 2006, or 2008 - soft, wrinkled and chewy

so, i guess, with high probability we can say it is 2006 Ivory

Well, it’s a possibility but it could be also 07
