Ode To Swift

[baghag21]

Dear Costa,


The exact name is Graphite.


I have a Birkin 35 in Etoupe (which actually rarely looks grey but more a dark kaki depending on the light).


Any advices are welcome as I still do not know if I should go for the Swift or for the sellier. My worry is I'm just 30, would the swift not look to "vintage" but in a bad way? I want someting chic and that will keep its form.


Thanks!

Graphite is a great colour. A good neutral colour.

I have not seen Graphite swift, so I cannot comment on the color in this leather.

I do like Swift in bright colours. There is a richness and intensity in the way colours show up on Swift. It's a good leather if one likes their bags in a smooth, non-grained leather with lesser shine than offered by Box or Tadelakt.

If you prefer bags which are more rigid, then a Swift bag may not meet that criteria. Swift is similar to Clemence with the softness and more pliable leather.

A Kelly Sellier is a structured bag. Its like a Grand Duchess of bags ... elegant and stately. Selliers come in Box, Chamonix, Chèvre, Epsom and Togo (which seem extremely rare these days).

Thanks Baghag for your comment / advise!
I have made my mind on the sellier in Epsom and hope they'll be able to do it. In any case I'll post a picture of the Kelly once the Kelly is here.


In the meantime I should get a rouge pivoine soon hihi

Hi all, I am contemplating a swift 25 birkin. I have other bags in swift, but not a birkin. I have several 25's but not in swift.

I am wondering if a swift Birkin 25 will always get the line going across the front of it from the pocket outlines. I don't care as much about the back, but I don't like seeing the lines across the front. I don't plan to overstuff or abuse my bag, but it will be used. Any advice?

I've a B25 in swift and have used it quite a few times. I don't see any indentation lines from the interior pocket. The leather is actually quick thick and has a nice patina over time.
I prefer this leather now more on smaller bags than Togo or Clemence because it gives a more sophisticated look.

No line for mine as well
But to be honest
I hardly use those pockets

Here's my swift b25 for about 6 or 7 years. If I understand correctly, it doesn't show the line you mentioned about?

It's very relaxed even though it's a size 25.
