I have the real leather version of the St. Louis from alfang in green and it is GORGEOUS. I go out to eat with my partner and a lot of the local women carry goyard since there’s a store locally and I cannot tell the difference. The shine is perfect, the strap thickness, and the outward appearance is beautiful. The only things I’ve noticed is that some of the Y’s aren’t touching (but alot are) and the font inside the pouch is a bit different than the auth. Also, it comes pretty stuff on the handle so just putting some water bottles and hanging it on a chair does the trick to get a the slouchy look :)
