I’ve only seen the vintage AWL in red in person and agree mine loooked redder online than IRL. It was a little disappointing. Mine wasn’t returnable though. If you aren’t satisfied, they aren’t cheap, return.

I agree with LJ, it's hard to know if I see what you see, but I'm loving the red I see. I know I'm biased because I love red bags, but on my screen your bag looks like a true red. Beautiful! Good luck with your decision to swap it out.
@RuedeNesle - oh yes yes do love a red bag too! This one in hand has a good deal of warm orange in the mix. I dunno. I wear alot of red, no orange or yellow tho. The tan one in this style is VERY pretty.
@arinha - Thank you - I’m sooo glad you agree - I was concerned I was being too picky or my color perception was fading. I keep looking at it, in fact it’s close to the 30 day mark so I have got to finally make a decision to swap out or nay. Feels good to have another see what I see!
Thanks much for Everyone’s input!

I think I know what you mean about the warm orange mix. I bought a Dooney drawstring bag in tomato and it was too orange for me. I kept it because it was my first drawstring bag and I loved carrying it, but I ended up selling it on ebay. Before that I bought a Dooney satchel from Zappos. (Long before I started buying bags at outlet and ILD prices!) I think they just called it Red, but it was too orange for me and I immediately sent it back for the same bag in Crimson, which I loved. All that being said, I would agree with you if you decided to swap your bag because it's too orange. It may photograph more red but you know what it looks like IRL..
@RuedenNesle - yes yes! I’ve never owned any of Dooney’s tomato color items, but you would think that dye and end result would be a Crayola crayon red wouldn’t you.
Put up beside anything else that looks to my eyes to be a true blue red, this all weather leather bag appears yellow red. And that won’t do. Thanks for your input!

Small Brenna in navy Florentine....also shown with "ears" (handles) tucked in. I think the pebbled texture looks great with denim.
Received today. Small zip Florentine in natural.
