Good question, for me I prefer Togo as Clemence is heavier especially in a Birkin.

I read in an old thread that certain years Togo and I think at least a couple other leathers had a bad smell when they warmed up? Is that something to be aware of with the older bags still? I’d have to look again, I can’t recall exactly which years.

I saw this gorgeous bag today. A lovely lady was carrying it, and I couldn't resist talking to her. She said she bought it about 12 years ago, and it was, as far as she remembers, part of the luggage line, but had no idea of the name. It was felt on the front and back, leather on the sides and handle. Huge, and she carried it so well! It was amazing.
Any ideas? Thanks

Yes, the smelly bags were mainly 2012/2013 (P and Q stamps) and the most effected leathers were Togo and Epsom. I personally didn't come across any smelly bags because, contrarily to most other people, I don't like neither Togo nor Epsom. I love Clemence as it's softer than Togo and it's grain is slightly bigger and flatter. Anyway, when looking for pre owned bags I always check the date stamps and stay away from P and Q.

Hello everyone. I hope you are all as safe and healthy as you can. I hope this is the right thread, but I would love to have this model identified. I haven’t bought it yet but it’s been on my radar since September. I usually know the models I’m buying for my collection but this one intrigues me because of the rigid style. I love rigid H leather. It’s vintage box in a cognac color.

any Input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and enjoy your weekend!

@getbetterwithH I considered one like this in black box. I got it authenticated here and asked Bababebi if she thought it was a Sorbonne. She said yes. There are other more common variations of the Sorbonne.

I especially liked this bag because it is not very deep and because it is rigid. Also liked the shape of its footprint.

Would love your help on what color this is...listing just says marron...I am not familiar with that as a color except for marron fonce and I know it's not that. Was thinking havanne?
