Oooof... I strongly dislike bags with designs on the outside (In & Out, Shark Bolide, etc.) I know they're collectible, but it's just the minimalist in me that's developed over the years.

Fuzzy shoes irk the living daylights outta me... buy my DH loves them!
ITA on the In & Out. I just don't get it - might be my least favorite limited edition in several years. The Shark is a little TTH but at least it's humorous.
Also an unpopular opinion, I actually like the Colormatic line now that I've seen it in person, although the pockets are useless :lol:
 
Thank you so much @880- coming from you that's quite a compliment!
To stay OT, I'll add my unpopular opinion ( although most of mine have been voiced already)... I think Togo does not take most colors ( especially the darker ones ( noir, VC, etc. ) well. The color usually looks dull to me in that leather.
I will now duck the flying Togo bags ( which will NOT scratch, so there's a plus! :lol: )
There's some truth to this IMO. Recent Togo is much more matte. I have a 10-year-old Togo Birkin in Noir and it's shiny; my new Kelly 28 in Noir is completely matte, to the point where it looks like Plomb, not Noir (I actually kind of like the effect, but many would not).

The Colormatic is endearingly whimsical as is the Desordre! But the rest… bleh. Can’t wait till the In & Out fades a little.
 
unpopular opinion : fuzzy Birkenstocks are cuter and more comfy

Omg okay i do have a soft spot for Birks!! I’m willing to give them a shot.
My unpopular opinion (number one zillion) is that fuzzy Birkenstocks kick the butt of the fuzzy H shoes. I LOVE my fuzzy Birks and have them in four colors and two styles. (I do want the fuzzy Carlottas, but I have a pair of unworn regular Carlottas already...so...)

OK, another unpopular opinion, the Carlottas are impossible to style at least for me!

Edited to add non-H fuzzy eye candy. I own both of these and will put 'em up against mink Orans any day. They happen to exactly match two of my H bags, too :p

I have the shearling Chypre and love them to death. Wear them every day. But Birkenstocks are SUPER cute. Are the blue ones still in available. I have the Manolo collab and I don't find them as comfortable as the Chypre.

I know we are OT but the blue ones are still available. Cookie Monster on the feet. To go back to topic, they match my BFF's Celeste Kelly perfectly. We should start a Birkenstocks with H thread - how's that for an unpopular opinion :graucho:
