I bought the empreinte and sold it, I had the marine rouge... I love my canvas bags and have had no issues with this bag and I use it every day...no wear on the canvas or corners. I always get concerned about the light print of empreinte and the wearing of the corners.I just don’t love empreinte anymore. I have the turenne mm, I have not used it in awhile....I love the bag so if you want it, I would try it!!
Thank you
And i love that canvas is a lot more affordable. I think i'm going to try canvas. Now to decide noir or bordeaux.
Any input on the colour scheme ?
 
I prefer the canvas; empreinte looks luxurious but it's so porous and seems so prime for scuffing and staining. Canvas is carefree, and I find the canvas on the V tote is so supple, it doesn't seem at risk of cracking, etc. (unlike, say, the pochette metis). I love the richness of bordeaux, but I think it's very much a fall bag, and noir is a bit more versatile.

I have both but like the Bordeaux better. I like it better with the black handles than the noir with brown handles...

Both colors are beautiful but I personally like the Noir with the caramel handles. It’s more neutral and matches better with more of my wardrobe than the Bordeaux and it’s a stunning color combination. I usually don’t like combining black and brown together but for some reason, this bag just caught my attention and looked gorgeous in person. So much so that I grabbed one for myself today! I think it depends on what your typical wardrobe will be when you use this bag and whether you think the Bordeaux will clash. Good luck deciding!

Beautiful bag...question does the bag slouch when there are items in it?

Thank you! The picture I took shows the bag empty with just the strap inside. I just tried putting some things in and it looks the same. It’s a soft bag but it has structure to it and I imagine that it’ll stand fine with or without items in it until it gets broken in some more. The bottom is more structured than a Speedy or Neverfull, so it’ll never slouch like those bags, but it’s not as structured as an Alma, although it does have feet similar to the Alma. I don’t think it’ll slouch as much as the Pallas, but only time will tell. Hope that helps!

Thanks!! Am trying to get a feel for how comfortable it will be when over the shoulder as I can’t go to the store right now due to COVID. Have way too many cross body bags and am looking for nice shoulder bag.Thanks for your response

It’s a good length with the shoulder strap. On its shortest setting, it hits me right at the hip. But I’m a shortie at 5’1”. I think it’s too big to use as a crossbody but it’s doable if needed. I’ll measure the strap when I get the chance to give you a better idea.
