Reviews on Hal R. leather/ponte TS?

Any reviews on this today's special? Mine is gorgeous and I'm trying to talk my way out of keeping it. Wink wink. I could have stayed true to size and that is my only regret. I got the ivory. The pointe is a nice touch and lends this to being more 'wearable' for all day.

Mine should be here tomorrow. I couldn't decide between the ivory and the grey, so I ordered both, thinking I would decide once I tried them on. Now I'm afraid I'll want to keep them both!

Returned mine. Thin - VERY thin leather. You can see the outline of the breast pocket from the outside, and I was swimming in it. (I ordered according to measurement size advice.). Hated the ponte. In my opinion, it did not match the leather, which also was very shiny and plastic looking. Made well with a smoothly operating separating zipper, though.

Would you mind saying which color you purchased, FS?

I bought the dark wine color. I don't know what it was named, I just know that the ponte was brighter than the leather and to my eye, clashed a bit too much. I think Hal has some pretty good clothes over there. I just would not buy a ponte/leather combination again - from him or from anyone else. I'm just too picky, I guess.

FS, I wondered that about the darker blue too. I thought they were so lovely but wasn't sure about the contrast.
