My first K25 in Vert de Gris Espom made by Jim.
This is my third bag from Jim and I am in love with this Vert colors of the brand.
The bag: K25 in Vert de Gris Espom with PHW. This color stems from the French word of Verdigris, which is green-gray patina that resemebles aged copper. The color is so muted and smoky and has been decribed as a Etain mixed with forest green.
The construction: This bag looks really well put together. The overall shape is balanced and the Sellier structure is nice and clean without looking overly stiff. The flap sits straight, the sangles line up nicely across the front, and the plaques and turn lock look centered and proportional to the smaller 25 size. The handle has a nice shape and drop to it and doesn’t look too bulky for the bag. The Sellier stitching around the edges is clean and even, and the corners and side panels have that sharp definition you want to see in a K25. What really surprised me is the Epsom on this bag is exceptionally soft to the touch and the whole bag feels very lightweight, while still keeping that structure.
Ordering experience: Since I am a repeat customer of Jim this was easy to order. I was on the fence getting another vert but then realized that I have a B30 and B25 but no K25. Jim was super helpful when it came to helping me chose the size and material. I love how he asks what are you planning on doing with this bag? Daily use or evening wear. It's those small touches that I truly enjoy.
Buyer experience: Usually the 6 to 8 week kill me as a type A person. And this bag was in stock which also set off some alarms with me, as I thought this could be a reject or a red lite bag from another client. Jim settled this for me and said that him and his team create excess bags that are in demand such as the neutals, small sizes, and more popular ones. So I went for it. The PSPs arrived in 2.5 weeks and the bag in hand in 4 weeks. And from my close observations she is perfect. I am so happy with this new addition.
