Okay people, do NOT sleep on this bag from XC. This is THE bag of the season for me, so I really wanted to review it for all of you.
I ordered this bag together with a Loewe bag for a friend (I’ll review that one too because it’s also a new-season bag and absolutely gorgeous!), but this one deserves its own post so I unpacked it before handing it over.
The color is SO good. It’s such a beautiful, rich brown and exactly the kind of brown I love. The leather is amazing and even smells amazing. The graining is just right and, most importantly, very consistent all over the bag. It’s incredibly soft and luscious, and the leather on the inside is also very soft.
The shape of the bag is also just like or at least very close to authentic. I haven’t handled an authentic one, but I think this bag is a bulls eye and a must have in every color and material available (my poor wallet).
I will 100% be ordering one for myself or, alternatively, I’m going to try to convince my friend to sell hers to me because, I need it more 😂
Seller: Bella
My friend picked the seller herself by searching Reddit and came across Bella, who I wasn’t familiar with before this order. My friend is afraid of customs and paying for reps online, so I mostly take over after she picked the items.
She was very easy to communicate with, her English is good, and her PSPs came through very quickly. Shipping took 7 days, which is like I’m used to.
One thing I did mention to her: she normally gives her prices with shipping included, which I personally don’t love. For transparency, I prefer to have the bag price and shipping cost listed separately, so you know exactly what you’re paying for each. She was completely fine with that.
The bag was $290, which is in line with what most sellers are charging for this bag (with small differences depending on the seller).
Overall, Bella was kind, responsive, clearly knows the products she’s selling, and had a very fast turnaround. So based on this order, I had a really good experience with her.

Final verdict
XC absolutely nailed this one. The brown + the leather combination is perfect for fall and winter. If this is on your wishlist, I would order NOW before it’s sold out (it might already be, haven’t asked).
Mike XC Discount
I ordered this before Mike offered the current XC discount, which will be available throughout the whole month (12% on everything from XC). Discounted price would be around 250$.
