I think this is from about 2007 and came in different materials (canvas and leather, not sure about denim). Suddenly, I've seen a rash of them on Vestiare Collective for a wide variety of prices. It's still pretty pricy, which surprises me because I don't think it's popular. So its held its price or probably has even gone up. I don't know. It doesn't seem to be discussed here at tPF (maybe I'm just not finding it). I find myself intrigued.

Who can say anything about it? I mean, anything. How does it wear? Do you like it? Do you think it's dated? Is if comfortable? Anyone's grail? Anyone's nightmare?

I'm just so curious and would love to see one IRL.

It is crazy cool! I love the little zips on the front and the whole style really speaks to me. The only thing that's a bummer, is I don't like compartments. I like a big black hole. That could be a bummer.

But I've since discovered the Riveting Pouchette! That's darn cute!

A picture of the pouchette? Yes, there's one on Posh right now. I like the way they styled it with the chains. It seems to only come in mono.

Funny thing, I am not a fan of mono and I love, love, love lambskin. But yesterday I looked at a lot of these bags (it also comes in black and ecru lambskin), and I much prefer it in mono. Somehow, it looks too fussy in the solid lambskin to me. This makes zero sense, I know, but that's how it lands with me.

Maybe, there is a fun busyness with the mono that appeals to me, and with the leather, I think the rivets stand out more.

I also discovered the Riveting Clubhouse. My original problem is I thought it was called Rivets, but it's actually called Riveting. I'm thinking about posting there to get the attention of the owners (I probably will), but I don't think anyone has posted there since 2009. Haha.

I loved the Sac Riveting. It was spacious with 3 sections and a zipped center compartment. The reason I didn't take it home with me was because it sat high on my arm for a bulky bag since I found the straps shorter than average and it had a squarish bottom. Both the pochette and the Sac were super limited and they sold out quickly. If you buy one please do a reveal !!
