New Studio bag - is it defective?

[hayoesoy]

Hi there!

I recently purchased a small Studio bag on Black Friday sale online. Overall, I'm quite pleased with the bag. Perfect size that fits all my essentials and the leather quality feels nice. However, I noticed the stitching near the right rear side of the bag that looked different from the rest of the bag. It almost looks like there are two very short hard threads that are coming out of the bag? I could clearly feel them with my finger when I rub against the surface.

Is this normal stitching on leather handbags? I thought it might be ends of threads, but I wasn't too sure. I'm not too bothered by the aesthetics, but more concerned about it possibly being a defect and affecting longevity.

Personally, I feel it may be defective and if I noticed that I would consider reaching out to SA to see if I could exchange.

I would not be happy with that

Hmmm, looks like the holes were sewn through and then unpicked and sewn again due to an error maybe? Ferragamo have fantastic customer service.. I would contact them and ask for an exchange.

The Studio is one of my all-time favourite bags and I hope you get the one that is perfect for you!
