She’s finally here and I’m literally staring at her typing this 😭

Hey guys! I posted the PSPs for my Shoulder Birkin 42 exactly two weeks ago here and the package just landed. I’ve been holding my breath for days and honestly, I’m so incredibly relieved and happy right now.

When you look at my bag, it looks nice but so rigid and clinical. In real life? It is a total emotional experience. The second I pulled her out of the dustbag, I just knew.

The Leather Quality: I was so terrified the matte Niloticus would feel dry, stiff, or cheap. It doesn't at all. It feels so unbelievably luxurious, velvety, and soft to the touch. The depth of the scales is breathtaking.

The Color: Gris Paris is such a moody, stunning chameleon. Indoors it’s a quiet, sophisticated concrete gray, but the second the natural light hits it, it turns into this gorgeous, deep charcoal.

The JPG Slouch: On the shoulder, it completely transforms into this perfect, slouchy, effortless Gaultier silhouette. The weight of it feels so substantial and real.

The Details: The palladium hardware is crisp, and the stitching running along the tough exotic scales is incredibly neat. The symmetry on the front panels is perfect, which was my absolute biggest worry during QC.

I’m honestly just so in love. After all the anticipation, seeing this kind of craftsmanship in person makes the whole wait so worth it.

For everyone who helped me look over the PSPs in my last thread thank you so much!

Finally Received PSPs of my B42 Gris Paris from Jim

After almost seven weeks, I recently got PSPs from JIM for my Shoulder Birkin 42 in Gris Paris, crafted in matte Niloticus leather. He’s been an absolute breeze to work with, always courteous and professional. I’m really excited to receive it soon, but given how rare it is, I don’t want to rush anything. Before giving the final approval, I’d appreciate some thoughts from you guys on the PSPs.
