3.1 Phillip Lim 'Pashli' Bag...Anyone?

[Deetob88]

I have a 31 hour tote. Had it for years. I never use it. It's not practical for everyday use due to the crazy ass zippers & the big leather fold. I also think they're soooooonot not worth $895 of whatever I paid for it. I've found it great for travel. Very easy to stuff with clothes for a weekend trip. It is unlined, so take that into consideration. FWIW, I've used my large & mini Pashli 5000x more than my 31 hour bag will ever see. It is a beautiful bag through. Very Acne, if you ask me.

Thank you so much for your help! I did purchase one off of eBay for only $200 brand new. The good thing is I didn't spend too much on it and if I'm not happy with it I'll resell it. I love my large and medium pashli so much, and I especially love phillip lim bags in general. I appreciate your feedback.

^ that's perfect! Totally worth 200. It's a really gorgeous bag, just not the most practical. Whenever I look at street style shoots with it I kinda side eye the girls because the thing is so hefty & cumbersome for everyday. Perfect if you need to run around the city with a change of clothes though!

Thanks for this tip! Just found this thread, as I happen to be eyeing a mini teal pashli (but would LOVE to see it IRL first, since it's the color I'm leaning on, less the bag itself!). If anyone sees one, pls let me know!

Fashionphile has an ink in mini in very good condition for $395. It discounts 10% every month for three months (assuming no one buys it). Just wanted to let you know

That's exactly MY qualm- I'm on the lookout for a teal mini! And can't really see what color it is online!

Hello. Does anyone have the mini in bright fuchsia? I tried to find online but all the colours online are different base on the different lightings.

!!! I know this is a late reply, and I've been reading this thread backwards! I'm looking to see a mini blue pashli (going it's on the teal side)- or maybe they're two different blues. If you still have it, could you pls post? Thx! I love this blue and hope you kept it (though I hate getting duplicate bags, both colors are gorgeous! And hard to find.) Thanks!

View attachment 3546340 View attachment 3546341 First world problems. Before I ordered my orchid one I ordered a blue pashli. I thought that it wasn't shipping and in the meantime found an orchid. I love purple so didn't hesitate and ordered. Well my blue came it was $360 and only wear is scratches on lock.

So should I sell the blue? Or keep both? If I keep both should I wear blue now and save orchid for summer? Both are pretty in different ways. Any opinions would be great.

Joining a little late, but I only bought a large oxblood satchel from Saks off 5th at a phenomenal price less than a year ago and am already considering reselling it..... It is immensely heavy, the handles are rough and the long strap is practically useless. Any advice? Would be very much appreciated. Maybe a replacement strap recommendation? Should I just give up and sell it? I have used it quite a lot, though I've been careful and since it truly is in tip top condition it would go for a decent amount of money I assume.

Thanks for sharing this. I've been wanting a 31 hour bag but was hesitant to buy. This really helped. I think I'll take a pass because of the size.

I’m kind of in the same situation. But I only have the medium and that one is also super heavy once filled with my belongings. I can’t even imagine how heavy the large one is. The medium has a decent length strap, so luckily I can wear it crossbody easily. But it still gets too heavy. If you don’t use your bag, sell it. I don’t think a short strap will make a big difference.

A "new to me" pashli in jade green that I got for an absolute steal off of eBay. This is my second large pashli now in my collection (my first one doesn't have a strap). Everyone is correct though, the crossbody strap is utterly useless. I'm about average height, and with the crossbody extension at the shortest point it still sits almost below my hip. This is my personal opinion though.

Thanks All, for this input- I have always been wary, thinking it's a weird shape/design for my needs. Convinced! Thx for saving me some remorse...

Wow!!! I love it!!! That chair is also beautiful[emoji1]

Beautiful color! May I ask how much you got the bag for? I missed out on a pre-owned light blue pashli

I'm sorry you missed out. I purchased my pashli through eBay for only $100 plus shipping. I was very nervous though because I dont believe the seller knew that they had. The description was simple and short. I wasnt aware it was a larger pashli until I closely reviewed the photos.

I hope you find another deal out there. I'm positive something will pop up. [emoji6]

Hi, guys! I just got my Mini Pashli and I have a problem with the strap.. it's too long for me even after adjusting im only 4'11 so yeah haha any suggestions or tips on how i should wear it? should i go to a shop and ask to add additional holes on the strap?

 

[Sora_V]

Wow $100 is such a bargain, especially that your bag looks quite in good condition! All the pre-owned pashli I saw so far are around $300, and they don't look as mint as yours. I could just pay a little more for a new one on sale.
