I was also thinking about that one, but I was a bit of afraid of the lambskin because I don't like to baby my bags. I sold my Chanel mini in lamb because it just wasn't for me, I hope that small Caro will be the perfect replacement. Besides that I wasn't also sure if I like those macrocannage pillowy pattern, but now, the more I look at it, the more I like it ‍♀️ If they don't discontinue it, I might eventually buy her as well I must have been infected with some kind of Caro-virus LOL!

I think I've read in this thread that they're lamb...Nevermind, sorry, my mistake.

Dior site does state it as calf, but the difference in the texture between those in macrocannage, and the others is pretty big. Those new macros are much smoothier and seem more delicate - maybe the leather in the regular cannage ones is more "treated" and seem more like caviar in Chanel but it's still calf. I had an YSL bag in calf, which was also smooth, but very durable and looked like new even though I used it a lot and didn't have to baby it at all. I wonder how this macros would be after some time.

I think in the beginning we thought they were lamb, but they are all calf! the only one that's not is the ombre?

That's a good news, because it won't be so delicate as lamb. Those macros reminds me a little bit of Chanel 19 - but gold hardware and big gold chain in 19's was a big NO from me. This classy ruthenium hardware is a totally different story:heart:

I am disappointed when I read your comment (not because of you just because of the fact). I though they are all made of lambskin. I checked the website and you are right that the indigo blue (which one I bought) is in lambskin. When I made the purchase I said to the SA that I am afraid of using it because it is delicate and she told me I should not worry about and if something happen we can send it to Paris and it would look like brand new after the treatment. I just verified my bag now and I already see some signs of wear at one corner and I wore it only ca. 20 times :confused1: I don't know if I exacerate about the corners but I am really disappointed. I wanted to use it as well as a daily bag (since with corona I need only my laptop bag because I have to take my laptop always with me therefore I don't use any additional bag for the moment). When I will use it more often then I am afraid that the bag will look horrible after 2 years... I also buy chanel bags but because of this I only buy caviar leather...i am thinking about getting in touch with the SA but on the other hand I think it doesn't make really sense. I am just disappointed that she didn't say that the other colors are made of calfskin. In this case I would have most probably choosen an other one (and the ombre bag was even more expensive)...

And she’s here!! Dior’s express delivery is really fast!! I love this bag ❤ It’s perfect in every way! I’ve read somewhere that the chain can be „opened”. Is it also possible in a small one? Because I have no idea how to do that!

Yes, it is possible. Scan through the CD chain links and you will notice two which look different from the rest, right next to each other. You can fit one through the other to separate them, to detach the chain.

Just posting pretty pics of some of the macro collection. I am buying 4 more. Haha. It's my soul mate bag. For real.

I have the large black macrocannage (and of course plenty of the "regular" cannage) & I find it incredibly versatile, dressy to casual. Hope Dior continues making this one!!

I'm starting to think about this grey :heart: I hope they don't discontinue it soon. How is your black macrocannage holding up? I'm afraid it might get scratches just from watching LOL
