Just ordered Black Medium City from Balenciaga Boutique in NY

[cate22]

I was wrong - - I thought they looked the same at night, but even in daylight they are similar! :blink:
Here are the (fraternal) twins.
(1st bag is Ink and the last 2 are black)

^ My GOSH, cate22, your SA picked you the best bags!!!!

 

[cate22]

Aw, thanks! :shame:
Joseph is the best!! Did he pick out your ink too? I love the leather on yours!

ranirob - I didn't get a chance to take a pic of them side by side today, but will do so tomorrow!

 

[hatikuh]

^ Yes he did!!! It looks like ours came from the same batch, but yours is smoother than mine

 

[cate22]

Funny you say that coz all this time, I always thought *yours* was smoother!

 

[hatikuh]

^ LOL Yours is actually smooth all over on the front side, my bottom half of the front side is distressed, though the back side looks just like yours. It's funny how the grass is always greener on the other side isn't it

Thanks again for the new photos. I get my black city today!!! I will take pictures, even if I send it back for the ink city. I just hate to part with it and wait once again!

 

[cate22]

So true, Hatikuh...
The back of both my bags, though looks more distressed than the front....

ranirob - Looking forward to your pics!
Let us know what you decide. Either bag would be a great choice!
