Balenciaga Praline MOTO Jacket

Picked it up on over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised to see how beautiful the praline was in person versus the black (mind you I'm ordering these blindly, directly from the SA without having viewed them or tried them on).  Extremely happy with my purchase but not so much with the hefty price tag (increased $50 dollars).  I'm telling myself this is a long term investment ;)  My man ain't falling for it.

I just recalled one thing that I wasn't too pleased about which was the leather on the zipper tags attached to the sleeves.  Has anyone else noticed that this is poorly crafted.  Mine came with the leather cut crookedly and then glued together.  I would assume with the Balenciaga name that these would be finely stitched at the edges.  That was a bit of a turn off especially since I'm a detail oriented person and these type of flaws tend to jump out at me.  Anyhow, my lovely SA is looking into a replacement so until then it sits in its garment bag.

Will reveal soon...
