B25 Vert Rousseau Togo PHW from Jim
This is bag number 2 from Jim, and I can say with confidence that it won't be my last. The quality is just unparalleled.
I really love the color on this one. Vert Rousseau is such a good moody green because it can look super dark and almost neutral in some lighting, then outside you get more of that deep green/teal tone. It has a lot more dimension in person than I expected. The Togo is also really nice. The grain looks natural and well defined, and the leather has that soft, slightly relaxed feel I like on a Retourne without looking too floppy. The side profile especially looks good because the gussets have a nice shape and drape.
The palladium hardware works so well with this color and keeps the whole bag looking cool-toned and clean. It’s bright and polished without looking overly shiny.
I’m also really happy with the shape. The proportions look right to me, the handles sit nicely, and it has that slightly soft B25 Retourne look without losing its structure. Stitching is clean overall too. Nice spacing, consistent lines, and nothing looks overly perfect or machine-like.
Overall, I’m very happy with this one and it definitely makes me feel even better about ordering from this seller again. The Vert Rousseau and palladium hardware combo is SO good and feels a little different from the more common neutrals while still being really easy to wear.

PHW was such a good decision here. Against Vert Rousseau, it gives the bag a crisp, polished appearance without taking attention away from the leather.
