I think it's neither. I see a T on the tag. The inside color looks more faded than the outside. Maybe the bag has been painted? The zipper tape doesn't really match the bag color, no?

01= Gold tag (there exist some rare pieces without gold tag).
02 2nd season=no serial on back side of the tag
02 3rd season= with serial on back side of the tag.

Referring to 01 non-gold lettered tag, this one also lacks the "Le Dix" prefix, correct? If you're okay with divulging, do you know which version was made "first" or were they all made at the same time? Just pure curiosity.

01 stands for 2001, 02 for 2002, S/S and F/W.

Yes, I already understood :flowers:

I was referring to the three 01 year tag pics in the link. The two with gold lettering have "Le Dix" ahead of the Balenciaga Paris. The other tag pic only has "Balenciaga Paris" and I guess I was trying to confirm if this was an example of the non-gold tag that Lost in Bal had been referring to. If that makes sense?

And wondering if these three versions of the tags all came out around the same time that year, or not. Again, pure curiosity.

I see. I don't know the order in which the first season tags were produced, sorry.

I was going to ask this too because I have a Caribou First and thought it may be a F/W 01 (based on that same link) but it could also be a S/S 02. There’s no serial number on the back. I have some pics here if anyone knows the answer:
