I think the unofficial name of this was was the Knot Hobo - not to be confused with the Pillow Knot.
It came in two sizes; the one in your listing is the larger of the two. It was also offered in a full intrecciato style as well. I don't know how many years this bag was produced but 2005/2006 sounds about right for the year considering the colours in which it was produced.

Thank you so much for the info. I have the smaller size in red. I'm new to bv so I have no idea of what it could be. Thanks again!

Irish was a Spring/Summer 2012 Colour.
There was a Forest as well for Early Fall 2013 (I think?) but it might have been a men's colour?
They have done a couple of Greens since the changeover to the new tags in 2012.
Irish, Trefle, Forest, Menthe and... another one? (not including Chartreuse which to me is yellow)
There is an Irish Cabat in the Reference Library - it looks like the Sloane in the listing. (to me)

Chartreuse is definitely a yellow (to me).

There's an Emerald but the Sloane in the listing doesn't look like one. It does look like the Irish Cabat you are referring to. I didn't know there's an Irish Sloane so I thought maybe that's a Forest.

Is this an Ebano speccio Belly bag? I don't recall seeing an Ebano in this style. Or is it a Matita?

According to the authenticity tag it is Matita.
But it is definitely brown from those photos.
I believe this bag is goatskin and it may actually be Moro, although Moro is catalogued as 1301
I have a Matita bag in goatskin from 2009 with #1302 on it so I'm wondering if the 2008 code for Moro Goatskin got used for the 2009 Matita. My bag is definitely gray, a gorgeous metallic grey with no hint of brown at all. (IMO)

I honestly don't know :shrugs: This is the second time I've been stumped this week. I don't care for it :nogood:

This is a leather swatch from my bag in Matita goatskin (non-intrecciato) and the second picture is Moro goatskin (also non-intrecciato). I have no idea why the photo of Matita looks like it has a purplish tint to it, must've been a reflection off what I was wearing when I took the picture. Looking at them together, they look almost the same colour :rolleyes:
