totally acceptable for men.. in fact i find it is very masculine.
i would recommend the XL though

What do you guys think of using them as a bag for men (either carrried by hand, or slung over my shoulder)??

ps. caroulemapoulen - your bag is amazing - my favourite, as well as the crocodile version.... but it retails for £10,000!!

I'm seriously considering buying a large size black satchel for my husband

sw0pp · Jul 16th, 2009, 05:08 AM

I also consider them quite masculine, that's one of the reasons I'd love to have one

caroulemapoulen · Jul 16th, 2009, 06:06 AM

I sooo want a boyfriend who carries this wonder, totally wish-thinking though. No one in my city is that fashionable.

Richie: Thanks a lot

You would look great with such a darling.

I hope to get mine home soon... :(

My PS1 is home again!!

sw0pp · Jul 16th, 2009, 03:50 PM

that was fast. is it all ok now?

caroulemapoulen · Jul 17th, 2009, 08:20 AM

Yes, I actually first thought it was a whole new bag.

It is all good now, and they will reimburse the shipping cost to me. :)

I really like this bag, am intrigued by it; does anyone think it looks too much like a bookbag? That would be my only concern; but, haven't seen one IRL yet.

Barneys.com just added a purple mdm with silver hardware!

Does anyone here have their own pics (not celeb photos) of one in python?

KittyKat65 · Jul 17th, 2009, 09:39 AM

^^^

I had comments on mine when I owned the tobacco suede large one. A few people asked me if it was a school bag. I have had no such comments on my medium black leather.

I just saw the purple and like it, but I would prefer it in leather. The suede makes it kind of dull and the suede one I had always looked kind of dirty, even though it wasn't.

There a few people on here who own a python PS1 and have posted photos, but I can't remember what threads they were on :(

Loganz · Jul 17th, 2009, 10:42 AM

^ That is helpful info Kittykat, thank you! From pics I have seen I thought the mdm was very balenciaga city-esque in size and look. The large is beautiful and looks great on many people, but, I can see how it could be more "utilitarian/book-bag" in appearance.

KittyKat65 · Jul 17th, 2009, 10:52 AM

Good comparison. I have own a Balenciaga City and the medium is very similar in size. I actually think the PS1 is a better bag than the City (for me) because it has compartments that help keep me organized. I think the leather is nicer as well, since the new Bals are no longer the really smooshy goat. The PS1 is as light as the City, but seems a little more polished.

I thought the purple PS1 is only available in leather, not suede? Such a gorgeous color, very tempting!

I am really loving the purple ps1 on barneys... I wish this thread had more pictures! I'd love to see some medium and large comparsions.

Ooops, I stand corrected. It looked like suede to me and I didn't enlarge the photo.
