The imprint on the front pocket is a clear giveaway (this was never an authentic MJ marking)
The multi pocket is the bag in your picture. There are 2 sizes - Small MP and Large MP. Its a shoulder bag with one main interior section, 2 pockets in front & a picket on each side
The Blake is more of a satchel but has longer handles most people can fit on the shoulder. It has 3 sections- the 2 outer sections zip, the center section has a snap closure. The Blake has 2 front pockets but no side pockets
I just bumped a thread with a link that might help you decipher some of the styles, colors, seasons, etc
You are the bomb! 💚I just bumped a thread with a link that might help you decipher some of the styles, colors, seasons, etc
I’m guessing here, small Multipocket, Sap Green? But I think older because the interior has the flap pocket and there’s no tag inside the zipper pocket (or anywhere.) am I right? Tell me I’m right. 😩😆 interior is yellow suede like the stitching! This might actually be a different green, it looks a little darker than Sap. Also definitely a different leather than the MP I posted previously, seems thicker like his old stuff. And strap is thinner!

Beautiful color! You have an eye for gorgeous greens.
I definitely think this is authentic, if so, definitely pre-2004. Not sap green. Sap green was a Fall 2004 color with navy contrast stitching and navy suede lining.
No, not Sap green
Apple. Its an earlier MP, one of the first runs after he switched from brass turnlocks to silver pushlocks
I believe this is 2003 (altho it might be 02) & should be tumbled calf leather, which is thicker, smoother, a little more “stiff” with a definite shine (not like patent leather)
There should be a stamp either in the suede or along the leather “lip” inside the bag that says MADE IN ITALY
If its in the suede, it might be hard to see or it may have faded into the suede.
I think in these bags it would be in the suede inside that pocket behind the pouch pocket, but I’m not certain
Thank you both! Bingo with the Made in Italy! I love both colors but Apple is something special for sure. I had wondered what sort of leather the older bags were because you can definitely tell by that alone if it’s an older one! I appreciate your knowledge and help, both of you!

I can't help you with the name of the style or color but I'm pretty sure this is from Fall 2005 - same season as the Courtney
That tracks- I remember seeing that hobo in green! I will investigate further 👀 thank you!
