Hi
I have just bought this bag from a seller in Deluxemall. Everything about the bag seems ok except for the back of the zipper, it doesn't bears the word "Lampo" on it. I called the seller up and she told me that for the first batch of RGGH Bal they don't use lampo zipper. Can some kind souls out there help me to verify this point? Tks in advance.

Hi! My 2010 town also doesn't hv lampo printed on the zipper. Which yr is ur bag from?
 
Hi- i'm taken with the new Town bag which i've seen on Bal UK website. I intended to buy a City till I saw this. My friend reckons it might be for a younger lady (I'm 51 years young) What do you all think? I've already got a 2007 Paprika City. Also has anyone seen a Town in London stores as the website only has Sang or black and i dont know if the black is truly classic or adds to the rockchick look. Thanks.
Bal bags don't go with age dear. I am 45 close to your age, what's the difference and I have both Citys and Towns. It all depends on how much you hold. Town is a bit smaller but it can be worn crossbody which I find very comfortable when shopping. I also have them RH with tassels that is which are more motorcycle, nothing to do with age though. However, it all depends on the general outfit. I usually wear jeans as I am a tutor teaching young children. For an office outfit I would advise any model Giant though. :smile1:

Hyeee! Can u please do a mod pics wearing city and town? I have a town which i recently bought, now feel like getting a city.. i know there are pics on the thread comparing town and city, but it'd b nice to see the difference when someone is wearing it. TIA!
 
I have tried to post pictures many times and I can't. I have to change the size or I don't know what. I know a few months back I did the same things and I could. I will give it another try.
 
Hello,


I've posted this question in another forum, but thought may e it is better suited here.

I have been eyeing the City for some time, but am worried it is too big for my frame. I am 4'11, 105lbs. Any thoughts? I really want the strap drop of the city (the first strap drop looks shorter than the city), but am worried it is too large for my frame.

Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
 
I wish the City came with a crossbody strap. I debated between the two for so long before I finally bought a Town. I love the styling of the City but really needed the option to use it crossbody!
 
I have many City bags but only one Town. I love the City but the Town is definitely better especially for errands, when you want to have your hands free and nothing to go down your shoulder. The only thing is that it doesn't have the capacity of the City, meaning you cannot put that much stuff in it.
 
I just got me a town yesterday, i still think city is better, but town looks really cute though.

I just went to balenciaga website ; Can anyone here tell me whats the difference between classic mettalic edge and regular classic?
thx
