Just arrived 2013 F/W black Toolkit....I've actually wanted to try this style for many many years. The leather is quite beautiful, soft & silky.....and I am so excited by all the compartments :panic:....a total of 5 zippered sections (1 main larger, 2 smaller on each side of the large, the usual zippered internal pocket behind the tag, and the front zippered pocket). Can't wait to use it!

Congratulations! :yahoo: The Metallic Edge chevre is so amazing! :loveeyes: :loveeyes: :loveeyes: Beautiful color, that looks fabulous with the silver hardware!

This gem finally arrived in the mail today! It's actually tinier than I thought.

The black nano is 8 inches by 5 inches. The burgandy nano is 7 inches by 4.5 inches.

Does chevre leather just have a more shrunken look or did they made the nano city smaller when it was first introduced? Any insights?

I purchased this bag which I find beautiful, the leather is so soft.. And it is surprisingly lightweight!
However, there are two white spots (seems like a discoloration of the leather) on the back of the bag.. Not sure to keep it as the bag was listed as new and Fashionphile refuses to make any discount :sad: Plus I am afraid that the leather is too delicate..
To those who have this bag, how do they wear? Are they very delicate and require babying (which I try to avoid with bags..). Thanks for your messages :smile:
I believe I have this same bag in black, it is Papier A5. I love this bag, it is very durable and not delicate at all. It is very slouchy but that hasn't caused any creases. I use it every day for 6 months out of the year, for a few years now.
 
I have been wanting to buy a Bal calfskin bag for a while now. I'm not giving up hope yet on the elusive "A" tag, but until then I will be enjoying (and petting) this wonderful bag. Giant Ring "E" tag Smooth/matte calfskin City :love:

Such a beautiful bag. I am kind of new to Balenciaga, so please excuse my question, but what is A and E tag??

Thanks! I was referring to the "A" tag and "E" tag from 2017 and 2015, respectively. However, the "A" tag can refer to a 2005, but the tag looks different. I'm just learning this all myself too! I regularly check lovebbags.com.
