The Material Boy #329
Davi Crocodile Leather Shopper
This is indulgence! The ultimate getaway bag in its most grandiose of all leathers, crocodile skin:-P Definitely for the high roller jet set crowd whereby the bag will get eyes fixated on you as you check into all the luxurious hotels along your journeys. What I most like about this Davi Crocodile shopper is the trapeze shape with contrasting leather textures. Crocodile skin on the front, back and handles and smooth calf skin on the sides. A handsome companion for the most savvy of men:-P No branding required, let the impressive skin speak for itself:-P
OOOh...I can only dream of one day travelling first class and toting this bag with me in a globe trotting lifestyle:-P Bags are what 'dreams' are made of...
Retail price: HKD $68,000. Where to buy: Lane Crawford, Hong Kong
As much as I love croc skin, personally, I prefer the belly portion. Your thoughts?
ReplyDeleteYikes...that looks like it's still breathing! I prefer smooth crocodile skin.
ReplyDeletelooks scary, to be honest.
ReplyDeleteI think the texture is what makes the bag interesting:-)
ReplyDeleteYes,the texture is unusual, and you are right,it makes the bag so much more interesting.great choice!
ReplyDeleteWow. Although, I have to agree with some of the above posters. If you are going to go all the way, belly cuts are the most luxurious skins. Gorgeous bag anyway.
ReplyDeleteI know I'm a bit late but...
ReplyDeleteI wonder who really makes this bag? I saw the SAME bag at Anson's here in Hamburg, Germany branded as their own and out of the belly skins.
Thing is, it was not only priced at about 4,000€ (and included CITES certificate) but despite the use of the belly, it was still quite crispy and stiff, much unlike Bottega Veneta or Tod's...
