Happy New Year everyone! I've recently started using my s/s 2012 vert poker first again heavily and i must say i am in looooove with the first style.
any idea why the stopped production on it? such a shame... the bag can first everything in it while still being small enough to tote around everywhere! i remember lusting over ashley olsens' seafoam first years ago...

Balenciaga has discontinued many styles over the years, the First is just one of them. I guess the City small is the replacement.Happy New Year everyone! I've recently started using my s/s 2012 vert poker first again heavily and i must say i am in looooove with the first style.

Completely agree. There is something about the balance, size, and distance, between the hardware, leather trim, tassels, and shape of the first that makes such a wonderful bag. The design elements all feel perfect on this style. I don't find it to be that small, either.Happy New Year everyone!

I love this description!!! After all the years and different styles of motorcycle bag, I still love the look of the First the most!!
Hi everyone! I need an advice)
I lost my bag strap (city blackout) and I can't wear bag in hands, it's very uncomfortable and pisses me off! I couldn't find any replace because of the color (ebay, vestiaire, store) so I decided to buy just unbranded red strap and of course it doesn't fit by color and furniture (but I know about different Fendi/Hermes strap fashion etc) and I don't know if it looks awful or fine?? One second I think it's fine, next I think it looks very cheap)) What do you think?

The hardware being different bothers me more than the color not matching. Lol. How do you feel about this Coach strap? It's darker hardware and I think it goes great with the edgy vibe of your bag.
Maybe I can paint this hardware.... like with spray paint)))
But it's black? Or they have it in red? It looks very cool but I want red or dark red(
Lol yes it's black. They don't have red unfortunately. @Teagaggle just recently spray painted gold hardware to black. You could do the same or find another strap with dark hardware.
I think this black strap is the best bet since you probably won't find a red that matches exactly! You could also look for one in a pattern with red in it...
My honest opinion is that I really don’t like it — the color, hardware and stitching are all very different from (and can’t compare to) the original. The black out bag is so beautiful especially in this color — you will be better off buying a black strap with similar hardware color like other suggested here. Good luck with it.
Hey I just wanted you see what it might look like with the strap. The hardware is gunmetal on the strap and it's shiny unlike the matte finish on my Bal (tomato red).
Not sure if you like it but I thought the pictures might have you decide for/against it. Good luck! Keep us posted on what you end up doing.
There’s a black Balenciaga strap on Real Deal Collections for $250 just listed today.
hmm I like this hardware match..
Yes I will post here about my stress situation and my decision))
I saw new black Balenciaga strap on matchesfashion yesterday only for $80-90) this is very cheap but I still don’t sure about black...
