Just unboxed this, got it preloved..
But i’m not sure if this leather is the most appealing to me. It looks so worn (which i know it’s meant to be, distressed). Hmm. I’ll have to think about this.

In these neck of the woods, we salivate over leather like this. But you've got to like it. This style does come in smoother and more structured leather, though they're not as plentiful. If this distressed leather isn't appealing to you, you may like the calfskin versions more.

On the other hand this would be great choice for poor weathers and other situations i might not want to put my smooth leather and vachetta bags trough. This and my Fendi Spy Bag are kinda similar in the slouchiness, so they may indeed prove useful. And i got this under 400€ which i consider a good deal.

I just got my first Day Hobo. She's a little worse for the wear, but I'm over the moon all the same and want to add another soon!

Does anyone have any idea what the official color name might be?View attachment 5718510

Very pretty green, congrats. The day is such a great style. Could be 2010 Cypres, maybe? Or 09 Pommier? It's agneau, of that I'm pretty sure. I'm terrible with colors, but one of the pros may chime in.

Oh lord please no! Haha
This is dream leather, please don’t use in bad weather. LOL
If that is your inclination we can point you to another bag that is more in line with your leather dreams. :smile:

No I’m sorry, I readily admit I dont have much experience with this kind of leather, or Bals in general.
Please educate me if you have the time!

And its okay, I’ll use my LV damier ebene pieces for the rainy days then :P
