    The Toronto For Sale Thread

    I had no idea this thread existed! I have a bunch of stuff I was on the fence about--I don't want to get rid of it enough to put it on the B&S but this seems like a happy medium. I'm putting up two posts: this one is accessories (Shoes, ties, cases) and the following will be suits and...

    Yes, it reacts just the way you'd expect.

    No, that's the point! I had it made, brand new from the factory. You are looking at the results of one week's light wear. I carried it maybe three days, between the office, the car and court.

    Some better photos. FYI, this is my third SAB bag, so I have a general idea of what I was expecting. The trouble with the plasticky coating on the leather is, besides being weird, it doesn't take in the leather feed, or saddle soap, or moisture of any kind. It simply beads up and rubs off...

    It was purchased through a bricks-and-mortar retailer who is the authorized representative of SAB. There's no question, I don't think, of me being sold a counterfeit. Both the retailer and SAB stand by the quality of the product, I am told.

    Yep, it's some kind of polyurethane or something. I tested the luggage tag; acetone causes the orangey finish to go gummy and then peel off. I restored an old document case earlier this year that someone had painted with poly sealant; it had the same effect. What the eff?

    Yes, my guess is some kind of petroleum or urethane coating is on the leather. Which is, needless to say, not what I expected, and I'm guessing it's not indicative of the highest quality.

    Hi, thank you very much for your attention. The feed I used was the stuff that came with the bag, which was in an unbranded tub, but it smells and appears exactly like the Sedgwick stuff I've bought from your excellent company. The leather will not take in the feed at all, nor renovateur, nor...

    Hi guys, I had a custom pilot case from SAB made a few months ago, london tan with blue skiver lining. I have two other SAB cases, both of which are the Peal & Co rebrands, that I've been very happy with, and I need ("need") a pilot case for work and figured I'd go for the best. I was very...
