what a twat.



As far as re-painting, I'm not a huge fan of this even though the painting is fantastic. I prefer that worn-in look, like it's been around for years.

I don't like new looking luggage either but pre-distressing is sorta stupid. I sometimes look for vintage but for nice pieces the prices aren't always better and the condition can be surprising on reception.

the cheapest thing is a tote bag, which is just their outer shell, a cloth lining, and handles. $900 for small, $1100 for large.


I'm think the credit card holder is 275-300, I know it's not 550 because I have one and I wouldn't pay that much.

No - unfortunately, it looks like you and I need to keep looking for that one thing in common

I ordered a pair of MTO Vass austerity boots when I saw what you got. I also looked for some sort of Borelli military wool jacket like the one you had but never found my size. See I'm your greatest fan.

I'm quoting my adventure to Barney's to find my brother a Christmas gift a few months ago. He didn't receive a Goyard wallet.

I like the hand painting, it wasn't me who was knocking it. Granted, I'm sure I wouldn't like it if Goyard bags became as ubiquitous as LV (and fake LV) these days.

And I also love the look of an old beat up bag. If it was black, I like it when 75% has turned grey from age and use.
