English term

to line 2.55

English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion handbags
Dear colleagues, could you tell me what 'to line 2.55' stands for?
Here is the context:
For higher resilience than lambskin, we use sheepskin from New Zealand to line 2.55 and TC handbags.
Thank you in advance

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

@ Asker
the question should simply be "to line" (a bag) as "2.55" is a second term (type of Chanel bag)

Lining
It is very difficult to separate the lining at the bottom of the bag because it is so well constructed. Genuine Chanel lining lies flat against the bag. There are no visible lumps or bumps: the fit is tight with no wrinkles, consequently authentic lining fits snugly with no creasing. Reproductions often can be spotted on the quality and fit of the lining, because its lining below looks inferior and feels like it is made from a cheaper leather.

Thank you!
agree Yvonne Gallagher : make the lining; you haven't explained "2.55" but it shouldn't be part of the question anyway https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chanel_2.55

to *cover*

Just pretend that the verb *cover* replaces *line* in this case. That's basically what they are saying. That they use sheepskin from New Zealand to *cover* the inside of their 2.55 and TC handbags because it lasts longer.
Don't you just hate it when the fabric inside your bag tears? 😉
