I would like to buy the sac de jour mini in black leather (not the soft leather..the other one- is there a name for this leather?)
I'm interested also in the cros embossed leather..is this leather and the other leather which is not soo soft and has the metal feets recommenable? Are there any cons? What about scratches? Does the mini der easily loose the shape or get scratches?

There is currently 3 type of leathers that i know of for the classic SDJ. They are calf skin, grain embossed and shiny croc embossed. For the souple SDJ there are 2 types. Suede croc emboss and grain leather.
Anyone correct me if I am wrong.
The grain embossed leather on the classic is much more structure and stiffer than the natural grain on the souple.

The grain and croc embossed on both SDJ version are less prone to scratches than the calfskin version.

Thank you so much for your help :) I can't wait to buy this bag[emoji1] [emoji1]
 
Has anyone noticed that the clochette is sometimes hanging from the right side, but more usually from the left? Is this an authentication thing- or is it possible it just sometimes changes? Anyone with any insight in this would greatly appreciate your help!

It can easily slide from left to right and back so not sure why that would indicate authenticity.
 
Picked up my 2nd SDJ but this time a nano. I saw this combo a couple of years ago but it was way too expensive for a Saint Laurent bag to me and I missed out on it when I finally saw it on sale at Saks. Well I felt like it was fate when I found this at the outlet for an amazing, hard to resist price.A7964283-9ACF-40C3-92FA-B17A752FE480.jpeg

The white one is beautiful! From what year is it? And your new one is such a unique piece! I am sure you will have a lot of fun with it!
 
Hello everyone, I hope this thread is still active! I’m looking for advise on SDJ models as I’m buying my wife one for a gift. I was looking for the small size (width 32cm-12.5in) preferably in black and ended up buying one from net-a-porter. Unfortunately, where we are based at the moment the official ysl website does not deliver and also I could find very limited options there. The price on net was very good (I think), so I ended up buying there.

After the purchase and doing more research and mainly finding this forum, I realised that the model I purchased was the souple in black grained leather (photos from the website attached below). As I learned from here, this is a model that released in 2017. Possibly stupid question but does this mean that the one I purchased was actually produced three years ago? Or do they still produce new pieces of this style? Also, net-a-porter seems legit and they only sell new items, correct? Thank you all!
