City handles?

[diane84]

Just wondering...can the City be worn over the shoulder with the handles? I got my Anthracite City (which I !!) but its kinda tight when I try using the handles on the shoulder. Thanks!

No, my city doesn't fit over my shoulder - but then again it's not really supposed to. It's more of a crook of the arm type bag (so chic!) - I use the long strap if I need both arms for something. The work sized balenciaga has longer handles though that do fit over your shoulder.

I have a GH city and it does fit on my shoulder.

I wear my City on my shoulder, my Twiggy too...

My Twiggy seems to fit more comfortably - that may be because it is older and may have stretched out a bit?

i can pull it off in the summer, it doesn't fit over a coat.

I read in one of the thread says that the bag will get creased easily if you wear the city with handles on your shoulder.

You must have really slim arms!!

I can wear it that way but it feels miserable. I can't stand bags with 2 straps right up under my armpit.

Sorry to kind of change the subject, but rather than start a new thread I thought I'd ask here - how about the Part Time? Are the handles on the part time any longer and can you wear it on your shoulder?

I can wear a City comfortably over my shoulder without the top of the bag digging into my armpit. My arms up at the top are around 8-8.5" in circumfrence - I think you can wear it that way with arms a few inches larger than that too. However, I do think it generally looks best hand-held, in the crook of the arm, or using the strap.

Mine will only fit over my shoulder if I have a t or tank on and it's still tight

Not only can I fit my arm.....there is extra room! I love the way it looks on the shoulder and it is very comfortable to carry that way because the leather is sooooo soft.

I really think the GH Citys have more room in the handle space than RH Citys.

I can get my GH pt on my shoulder without a coat and I'm pretty big.
