Does anyone have this bag in smooth leather as pictured below? I think it's so pretty but would love an IRL photo of it as I always feel the model photos make the bags look so stiff. Or just to hear thoughts on similar totes from AofL. Thank you.

I have this in the pebbled leather, and it is definitely not a stiff leather :) The corners and 'A' stitching on the sides of the bag help to keep the structure, but I find that the front and back slouch a little over time and are quite soft. It is a great size and in my experience, less rigid than other Aspinal styles such as the Mayfair and Marylebone.
 
Hi, advice please. I bought a Soho Backpack from Aspinal for my daughter but it’s not big enough. I’ve tried listing it and have had loads of watchers but nothing. Selling at a huge loss too. Any ideas please?

If you are in the UK you could try Labelsmostwanted? Not sure if I'm allowed to put links here, but just google them. I purchased a second-hand Givenchy bag from a pre-loved site, and asked if she would sell a friend's Aspinal hobo. She herself didn't handle Aspinal bags but advised me speak to them. I haven't done so yet, so no experience with them. Might be worth a try?
 
For those of you in the UK, Aspinal have a limited time discount code for 20% off their entire range. Use Xmas20. Not sure if usable in the US? I've purchased two London Midi Totes in a gorgeous shade of metallic choc brown and also in pebbled tan. (I purchased the tan as a Christmas pressie but might keep it, haven't decided yet. :P

Hi, thank you! This never showed up as an alert. Yes I know and also fully endorse LabelMostWanted. By fluke it’s just sold on Ebay (at a loss ) but it’s beautiful?? Couldn’t understand why it wasn't going? Aspinal have lovely items too. Thank you soo much my lovely 💐 much appreciated 💕

Hi there! I am seriously considering the London Midi Tote in the metallic chocolate brown. Can you tell me how you’ve been liking it? And do you have any pics of it? It would be my first AOL purchase. Thanks so much!
 
I live in the US so am unable to see the bags in person. Can anyone provide insight on the large and midi size mayfairs? I’m struggling with which size to order. I 5’7 and about 140 pounds. I typically carry a compact wallet, mini pochette as a catch all, phone, keys, sometimes my small kindle and that’s about it.

I’m looking at the Mayfair from the US also. My guess is the larger one would suit your needs better. I don’t think the midi could carry the mini pochette and the kindle.

I have the midi mayfair and it won't hold everything you want and if you overfill you won't be able to close the bag and have it snap shut. Definitely get the large mayfair. I have a compact wallet and it just fits.
 
I have just bought the large Lottie in taupe,supper excited and can’t wait 😊View attachment 5901160
Can I ask does it feel and smell like leather? I have been eyeing these bags, but just received a bag from a different company that said leather, but it has what feels like a plastic coating. Don't want to send for a bag across the ocean if I am not sure how it will feel. Thanks in advance.
