Can someone tell me if this is an actual B style or if it’s a B inspired bag? If it is real, what in the world is it called? Thank you! xo

Just based on the dust bag, the zipper pulls, inside lining, etc. - it looks like this bag pre-dates the Motorcycle line; might be harder to identify (beautiful leather though)!!!

Hi. Can someone please identify this bag for me? It says it is a City Bag. Is it? Thanks! Posting both pics and the link.

This style is called the Weekender. It was renamed the City XL a few years ago, but as your bag is an A tag (2005) the official name would be Weekender. (Essentially a larger version of the Work, which is a larger version of the City.)

The shape of the City XL is different at the top edge, it has the U-shaped dip in the centre between the handles whereas the Weekender is straight across at the top and has a centre seam. City XL is 20.3" W x 14" H x 9.4" D and the Weekender was 21" W x 15' H x 9" D so very similar in size.
EDIT: Sorry, meant to quote you on this @Lyranyc!

Please post in the "Authenticate this" thread if you want help with authentication. That's your first step. You can ask the season of your bag there as well. Please see second link below for photos needed.
