Recent Arrival

B30 Clemence Bleu de Prusse PHW from Jim.
Ordered- March 23, 2026
Leather- April 1, 2026
PSP-May 3, 2026
Shipped- May 6, 2026
Received- May 20, 2026

The bag is amazing!! As with the clemence on my K28, the clemence on the B30 is so soft and supple!! The handles are nice and sturdy without too much give.
The shape, as always, is so very nice.

I did have some feedback for Jim on this bag. The blind stamp was on the sangle and the hardware hammered into sangle leather was etched with the incorrect configuration. I brought this up to Jim and there was no push back or conflict. Jim immediately went to work for a solution.
I have no idea how he did it, however, the sangle hardware has the correct etching configuration.
This is one of the things that I absolutely appreciate about Jim. He is absolutely open to feedback and will address any concerns that I may have. There isn’t ever any conflict or pushback.

This bag took a little longer to make as well as a little longer to arrive. Out of all of the bags that I have ordered from Jim in almost the past year, I’ve never had an issue with regard to the bag arriving. I definitely would not be 15 bags in if the bags were not top quality or of the were issues with the bags not arriving.
I have other bags on order currently, with one on the way that’s been in transit for a minute now, and I’m just sitting back and trusting the process.

PS-
Also, please don’t do anything weird like screenshot my photos and draw lines all over them 😅
Comparing photos to photos (knowing the nature of the leather and how it slouches, the pebbling , and lighting all effects what the bag looks like in photos as opposed to what it looks like in person) and passing them off as a ‘friendly’ gesture is wild.

Two more bags on the way from Jim. The bags always exceed my expectations in the QC. I’m definitely looking forward to handling the bags in person.

I took my time with the QC and eventually ok’d the bags shipping. My experiences with Jim have been absolutely great! Definitely is a partner in the process as opposed to someone who just wants to make money. This, from my experience, sets Jim apart from others.

HSS K25 Retourne Gris Perle Matte Alligator Chèvre Rose
Mexico from Jim.

I hadn't realized that it's been six months since I received the bag!

Definitely has been holding up very nicely. I've used this bag on occasion for special occasions or when I've just been chillin' with friends. The bag is surprisingly versatile.
The alligator leather maintains the velvety touch. The patina on the leather is coming in so very nicely.
The hardware has not chipped or oxidized. The only scratches are from me lol .
The glazing is still all in tact with no cracking!!!
The handle has maintained its shape and has not warped, which I truly appreciate.

It's evident to me that Jim's bags are not just gorgeous, they are genuine made to last. All the characteristics that l aforementioned have been typical of my bags from Jim. I've been buying bags from Jim for going on a year. The experience has been nothing short of amazing. I'm genuinely appreciative of the communication, expertise and overall customer service that Jim provides on a regular and consistent basis.

I haven't ordered an exotic bag in a few... Definitely will once I've ordered the bags on my 'standard' leather list.
