Cute, but why would they be so candid about it...?

 

[Meg]

and it's 2,100 and backordered? for that I would just get the real thing for a little bit more.

 

[metal-on-metal]

They actually call it a "Birken"? How weird. I don't get the point. It just cheapens the Gucci name.

I think that bag looks ugly.

 

[nycgirl84]

That looks like a briefcase - not cute.

 

[highheels]

Too businessey to be an everyday bag.

 

[Acid]

the things some people would waste their money on

 

[BrothaG]

I don't have a clue why Gucci added this bag to their collection either. It looks like some sort of joke.

 

[orlem]

It looks much more like a Kelly to me.

 

[Craig]

Oh it's horrible

It does look like a briefcase

Think I'll stick to good old Hermes!

The bag is acyually listed under Men's Fall Accessories

agreed. what is with those horrible pockets?

 

[As You Like It]

Huh, you can get something like that at Wilson's Leather in you local mall for about $80.

I almost did, but in RED with brass fittings.

But again, not worth over two grand, even if the workmanship and materials are excellent. I could see a really good quality bag (no name) made like that maybe for up to $250, but it is not innovative or interesting at all.

Good enough to tote the car keys, kleenex, notebook, etc. Not at all special, however.

 

[ingenue]

Gawd that is simply hideous.
im surprised Hermes hasnt picked up on it and sued Gucci!!
i cant wait for them to slap a lawsuit on gucci actually.
I wish Tom Ford was back!
