My very dudely boyfriend is very supportive of my insane bag collection and helped out on the The Museum project. He was standing in front of the Tower of Bal yesterday, understandingly appreciating the bags. I pulled out the VF Day for him to feel, saying "Tell me where, where on earth you're going to find leather like this? huh? huh?" He's a motorcycle guy and used to race. As he was admiring the leather, he said "This is the kind of leather old motorcycle gear used to be made of. Not anymore, but long ago. Back in the day those were made of goat leather." So I gleefully squealed "This is goat leather! And these are called Motorcycle Bags!" :lol:

I got this bag about six months ago and used it only once since then. In the meantime she hung by the window, was thrown in the washer and then mostly forgotten/abandoned/neglected.

After a little chat with a bloody awesome tPF friend last night I realized what I've had on my hands all this time...lol! And here I've been jonesing for a smoooooooooth caramel FB hobo. :facepalm:
Applied two generous coatings of lotion, et voilĂ ! I'm still confused about the season and leather type, tho. Second or third season? Arena leather?
Whatevaaaaa! She’s pretty again and so soft! :love:

Some minor surgery is still needed, but I will get around to that at some point. First outing today in forever. :drool:

I'd guess Second Season, since Third was all moto-tough for the Hobos...?

Gorgeousssss regardless of season.

(Ref for 2nd vs. 3rd Season tags via Flap bag thread. :flowers: )

Hi twin! First season was F/W 2001, which I believe didn't have the zipper stop at the end. Second season was S/S 2002, this one. Third season (F/W 2002) was the moto tough leather.
Still can't believe you dunked her!:eek:

Did you mean literally thrown in the wash? We can do that with these bags? :shocked:
