I don't know for sure but I saw an Instagrammer from London already with it, and I don't think it was supplied by Dior so maybe it is already available (?)

@lxrac I'm bringing our conversation here because it's related to what we are discussing, and we can use another guy on this thread!
As for smaller bags, the new Dior men's Saddle pouches and bags are smaller and work really well.
There's also the DiorQuake pouch which works well with a guitar strap (picture of me):
This is @hightea_xx 's DiorQuake with a studded lambskin Dior strap:
This is @jorjaiso 's Dior Men Roller Pouch:
This is @LeNeo 's Diorama:
Averagejoe, thanks for bringing our conversation here. Great picture! and that Diorquake bag you were wearing is fantastic. How tall are you? That bag seems to be a good/decent size for you. I I'm only 5'7" As you know, I am eyeing the Dioraddict flap bag in oblique monogram. I can't stop thinking about it, I just hope it will look good on me size-wise....

Averagejoe, thanks for bringing our conversation here. That Diorquake bag looks amazing on you. How tall are you? That seems like a good decent size for you. Also, thanks for giving some guy picture examples....I'm 5'7" and as you know I am dreaming about that Dioraddict flap bag in oblique monogram, I hope it'll look good size-wise on me. I first saw it when I visited Toronto two months ago, I should have asked to check it out. Was too nervous to ask the SA lmao!
Please don't be nervous to ask the SA ! I've only ever been to Dior in the EU, but they are always so nice, on a couple of occasions even too nice lol. I think as long as you ask politely and know approximately what you're after, you'll be fine.
You're welcome! I'm just an inch taller than you, so I'm not tall. I think you will look great with the Oblique Dior Addict bag!
@lxrac here are some more options:
This is @melsig 's Dior Saddle pouch. It looks great on her even though it's a "men's" piece:
@fast runner has this too:
@MonsieurMode posted this photo of a guy he saw with the Dio(r)evolution, which I think works so well as a guy's bag as well:
And then you can always choose the Saddle bag. Here is @incoralblue 's:
Hopefully I have compiled some nice Dior options for your next small bag
Haha averagejoe! You're the best! Thank you for these examples.
Hi @lxrac, is this the bag you're referring to? I tried it last summer in Paris and it was kind of a weird fit for me (I'm about 5"6), so I went with its WOC version instead, there is much less space obviously but it just looked better on me I felt

While it’s still summer in London, I’m going to keep wearing my favourite tee!Hi @lxrac, is this the bag you're referring to?

Hi dondontown, yes that's the bag I am referring to. I think they both look good on you. How do you clean it btw?
I see what you mean. It's hanging where the DiorQuake hangs, although the strap attachments don't look like the bag is supposed to be worn across the chest. I think it still looks good but for some odd reason I thought it would sit lower (it can't if the strap is the same length). Maybe it's because I've seen the Saddle with the strap hang lower, because it has the extra CD hardware to extend the strap.Hi @lxrac, is this the bag you're referring to?

It's difficult to clean the canvas because it is not coated. If you rub it too much while cleaning it, the canvas may fray. I mean. it's not that delicate, but I would try to protect it at restaurants and cafes from sauces and drinks like coffee and wine as those can stain the canvas.
I don't think this should stop you from getting it. I have bought 2 Oblique pieces because I really like the vintage tapestry look, knowing that it is difficult to clean. As long as you take good care of it, then I think your Oblique piece will look great for years and years. I've seen some really pristine vintage Oblique bags, from the 1980's even!
Yeah, I need to be mindful of that whenever I acquire the oblique monogram bag. I am quite careful with my bags but I get clumsy sometimes. I looked online at the Diorquake clutch--it doesn't come with the strap, did you purchase the strap separately averagejoe?
