Heh, yes. So fun! Leather does look super silky and soft in the pics. I think it's missing the strap though. But I'll find something matchySo much fun! Love finding a hidden treasure like this. i suspect it might be wearing that super silky leather that boggles the mind. Can’t wait for more photos!
We have no doubtsHeh, yes. So fun! Leather does look super silky and soft in the pics. I think it's missing the strap though. But I'll find something matchy
It might just be my settings, but this brown is coming through with purplish undertones. Can't wait until you see it iRL!
No idea
Crossing fingers for a "plummy brown". You know, like dark chocolate. Can't wait either.
Finally caved and nabbed my first Town. Don't have the bag yet, but really excited to see how I like the size. Should be Cumin, "J" tag.
Loving the material mix.

Cool color! I'd never seen it before.
In the olden days, I knew every color and style of the moto bags. Very rarely we'd uncover some super rarity no one had ever seen before. I now experience that almost daily.
Thank you! It was either this one or a blue leather/denim Vélo. But I kept ogling the Town and thought 'ah well yeah, let's do this'. Haha.
I love seeing all these super rare treasures that not even the Bal veterans have seen in the flesh. Who was that with that awesome blue Village? You? Connie? I can’t recall.
So much fun! So little is known about a lot of these gorgeous oldies and prototypes. Makes me happy seeing them pop up and I learn so much, still.
Been working to restore a beater 2004 gray Twiggy with PH a that I got, hoping I can turn her into something I can actually wear. I was going to send her off, but I decided to try my hand.
Before and after pics tomorrow.

I like the look of this combination too. Have yet to try a Town myself. . Let us know how it feels to you.
I did find a chocolate Village. I think Deco has the blue you are remembering. ? I think the Town might be similar to the Village in size and proportion..
Will do, my dear!I like the look of this combination too. Have yet to try a Town myself. . Let us know how it feels to you.
Ah yes, now I remember that yummy chocolate was yours. I do think Deco scored the blue one.
Both such rare, beautiful finds.
To me the Town looks a bit like the First and Vélo had some fun together
which culminated in the Town. A real love child 
The town is hands down my favorite style thus far, maybe followed by the twiggy. I only own one, and I feel like they are harder to come across.
The Velo would be a favorite too if I modify the straps to make it so I can wear it higher crossbody. The way the shortest length sits makes the handles dig into my hip bones.
