Hi everyone, I have a question for those of you who have own multiple Selmas for quite some time. I recently bought two in different colors and I noticed that one of the bags was heavier, stiffer, and had thicker leather. The other was lighter and the saffiano leather was thinner.

I've seen pics of sagging selmas so I was wondering which one would hold its shape better. Common sense tells me that the thicker one might but perhaps the thicker leather breaks down in a more obvious way??? TIA

I've noticed that on my suttons... My small silver sutton is stiffer than my medium ecru one.. Also the ava is thinner than my selma .. My selma is gold .. Maybe it has something to do with the colour of the saffiano .. Some other selmas in black or more neutral colour were not so stiff as gold or silver .. I don't think it will sag.. But if then the thinner saffiano will sag if you overstuff it .. My bags looks fine..
Maybe the larger size of the selma will sag and the medium or smaller sized bags hold their shape better

I've noticed as well. My grey Selma is much stiffer than some of the colored ones I've felt. Also, my new dark dune sutton is MUCH stiffer than my electric blue one. Not sure why. I don't think it will sag either way though.
 
My sister and friend are lurkers on here, but they encouraged me to post my freshly grown Selma collection. Lol. I should have waited until tomorrow when it'd be better light to photograph them, but I got too eager when my last baby arrived in the mail today. Here they are.

Btw, my violet doesn't feel as stiff or thick as my palm and malachite ones, if that helps.

I think it has to do with where they were made and year they were made, I have noticed the difference between my two older Selma's which are black and fuschia ... And my newer Selma - which is dark dune and seems to be way less stiff, I also noticed the thread in it is not as good as the others. To be honest I think it's just a decrease in quality or something along those lines. I would think the thinner ones tend to sag and become dinted more

Stunning collection!!! These are my kind of colours, I love deep/ rich/ bright colours and the studs really highlight the vibrancy of some of these colours.

Hello everyone! may I know if MK has new lining on their newer batch? It is MKMKMK logo instead of MK inside a circle.. Saw it from small sutton bag though..
Also, who has black selma with beige color lining? I have mine in black lining, but my friend just bought her medium selma in black, and the color is beige..
