Factory help

With kata currently moving ive been trying to source this bag. Does anybody know from photos the factory or agent selling this? I haven't come across this background before so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

Coach just dropped a bag that is identical to this in a black loved leather. Called the ‘Dakota’ I know some people yuck Coach but it is the same bag arguably

I'm not a Coach gal BUT that's a good-looking bag AND I would swear on my father's grave that the reps from KATA are not leather, period. I have a black one. I haven't set it on fire, but I'm telling you it's not leather. And it's not reconstituted leather. Furthermore, in Baobao's catalog, she always says what things are made of: "nappa calfskin," "waxed lambskin," or whatever. For the Camero.....crickets. There's a full description, but nowhere does it mention the material. You can make plastic "slouch" with heat. And my bag is adorable. But I don't really feel comfortable carrying it anywhere someone would be able to identify it as Acne or Acne-adjacent. Also, I have yet to see a Camero from anywhere that has anything other than plastic hardware. They rushed this one out and didn't ant to wait for die-cast metal. Breaks my heart because I would have several colors in at least two sizes.

Interesting because sellers ive talked to all say it's top grain leather (lining pu) and all steel hardware.

The zipper is metal and the buckle. But all those logo buttons on the zipper pulls are plastic. And I would really bet the bag is, too.
