Not long after the over-hyped release of Louis Vuitton’s Multi Pochette Accessoires in September 2019, a similar kind of it-bag arrived on the scene – The Prada Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder Bag. This bag forms part of the Prada Re-Edition collection which also features the Re-Edition 2005 mini bag, the 2000 mini bag and the 2006 shoulder bag.
The 2005 shoulder bag, which is also being referred to as Prada Bandoliera Tessuto Saffiano, Prada Re-Edition Hobo Bag or the Prada Multi Pochette, features a nylon body which has its seams stitched together with saffiano leather. The front of the bag features the Prada metal triangle logo and it also comes with a detachable leather name tag with the words ‘Prada Re-Edition 2005’ embossed onto it. The bag can be closed with a top zipper closure and the interior lining is also made from nylon.
Let’s Talk About The Good
One of the pros of the Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder Bag is the fact that it is customisable and can be worn in multiple ways. This is due to the fact that it comes with two detachable shoulder strap options – a short metal chain shoulder strap and an adjustable logo fabric shoulder strap which allows the bag to be worn cross-body. The add-on strap also comes with a mini removable pouch which also features the Prada metal triangle logo.
What About The Not-So-Good?
One limitation of this bag is the fact that it has no interior or exterior pockets. However, the mini removable pouch makes up for this. Additionally, the bag is not very big, which means that organising items into compartments is probably not as crucial as it would be if the bag were larger. If having a bag with different compartments is a must for you, however, this insert organiser can quickly rectify this issue!
Prada Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder Bag Dimensions, Colours and Price
Dimensions: 18 cm x 6.5 cm x 22 cm
Colours: Upon release, the Prada Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder Bag was available in three colours – black, khaki and red. All three colours come with silver metal hardware. During 2020, Prada also launched new versions of this bag including white, blue, green and pink as well as a black leather version.
Price: The original retail price of the Prada Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder bag is $1,140 / €1,025. However, the bag is extremely hard to get ahold of and is rarely available via the Prada website. As a result, it is being re-sold at much higher prices with about a 30% increase.
Where to Buy the Prada Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder Bag
Naturally, the best place to buy the Re-Edition 2005 Nylon Shoulder Bag would be via Prada themselves. However, the bag sells out very quickly and is often removed from the official website. Should the bag re-appear on the version of the Prada website applicable to your region or in your local store, you might want to grab it before it is too late. You could even re-sell it at a profit.
