I'm thinking about getting a pashli for work. How much can you fit in the medium? What is the inside of the bag lined in? Does it feel luxurious or cheap? I'm very particular with the inside of the bag haha. The other bag I'm considering is a prada. This one is much cheaper though. Is it made in China?
 
Into a medium pashli you can fit a MacBook Air and any documents in A4 format. It is very spacious and sturdy. Does not feel or look cheap and is very well made. All the stitching is perfect and hardware is great. The only thing I am not sure about is the clasp as I don't use it much
 
I am a mini bag lover who just cannot resist mini bags!!! I just got a givenchy mini antigona in black but it might be a little too formal for daily use. I have the 3.1 phillip lim mini pashli satchel in mind but I am contemplating between black, taupe and electric blue!!! Help, anyone? :smile1:
 
I'd go for the ink but it depends on your personal wardrobe. I wanted the ink one badly because it is stunning but ended up getting taupe because it would be a better fit for my wardrobe

Yes that's the exact one I was thinking of. Love the colour and for some reason I'm really into navy atm. Thanks for your help! I'm probably going to pick on up at the 3.1 Philip Lim boutique in Tokyo at the weekend :)

I would consider navy or a similar dark color in this bag for sure. It's such a classic design that, in my opinion at least, looks very nice in colors such as navy or forest green. I have an aubergine/burgundy one from a few years back though so I'm biased :P But I do get a lot of complements on it! Fits my grey/black/blue winter wardrobe very well :D
 
After years of wanting one, I'm finally in with my medium black pashli! I love how it looks just like a normal bag but it's made with nicer material. I think I'm over anything with logos and want the "stealth wealth" look. I ended up paying FP because I wanted the black to wear everywhere... ImageUploadedByPurseForum1407954058.495963.jpg
 
Hello All! Does anyone know about the quality of the strap on the pashli? I want to get the large size (probably black) for school, and I have a tendency to pack a lot; 13 in Macbook Air, iPad mini, wireless keyboard, chargers and basic essentials. I won't put my textbooks in it (I have LV and I don't think those bags could hold up to my science textbooks :greengrin:). Since I'm a guy I probably won't use the handles and will just use the strap exclusively. My main concern is with where the strap connects with the bag. It doesn't look like it can take much weight for long periods of time. Has anyone had issues with this? If needed I could use carry my iPad and leave my computer at home, but that might lead to me using the bag less than I would like. Thank you!!!!

Love the bag! Like you, I have been lusting over this bag for over a year now and finally got one a month ago, and I love it! The leather really is so nice and durable!

I had the large and just the bag alone it's heavy. I've stuffed it and carried it by the strap and had no issues except for the weight. So that's something to consider.
 
Hello everyone, I am thinking about this bag for school and some days might have to carry a 15" macbook pro... will the large fit it? I am between this style and a Rebecca Minkoff Jules satchel. Also, I came across this ebay listing: http://www.ebay.com/itm/301278651052?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2648 and was wondering if anyone had seen/heard of this style before? I like the smooth leather and silver hardware the most. Thanks for any input! :D

Enjoy your bag!
I am so jealous:) First because you are getting the navy one ( I went through agony choosing between navy and taupe:)) and second because I am dying to go to Tokyo:)

I had a large one and then sold it, I wanted to use the shoulder strap with it but it was waaaay too long (I'm 5'5), and even if I would have adjusted the strap by punching more holes, I don't think it would have looked good. So, if you want to carry school stuff and a laptop in there, I wouldn't rely on the shoulder strap. If you carry with the handles, it'll probably be too heavy.
Hope this helps :)
