This was my V-DAY gift. It’s perfect except for the stamping inside. I already exchanged it once cuz the leather was badly creasing. Idk if I can exchange it again. Would this bother you guys
Your Boulogne is fine. The leather creases because it's new, once you start using it, it will stretch out a little and the leather will be supple and look great. As to stamping inside, I don't even see anything wrong with it. Enjoy your gift.

My Boulogne's zipper wasn't running smoothly because it's so new. I used a little bit of wax and now it's running great.

That is how the stamping is going to look on empreinte leather because of the texture. It wouldn't bother me at all.

Absolutely love the slouch on the vagabond hobo!!! I was not expecting to love it but it is incredibly spacious and hangs so well when on my shoulder. I admit I was shocked by the size when I pulled it out of the box 😂. The canvas is super soft. The zipper pull charm, the pearl detailing on the logo piece and the luggage tag that is stamped is so fun!
@kimmiesue you were so right it’s a keeper!
Similar in size to the graceful mm but taller and has a zipper.
I did the same as you Kimmie and put a shorter strap and it is instantly loved. Excellent purchase and so excited to have it in my collection ❤️

I keep thinking about this bag and I blame/credit @kimmiesue's first post about it. :lol:

I appreciate both of your reviews. The size seems perfect and I love the zipper.

The two questions I have left are:

(1) Are you concerned about corner wear at all? The main challenge I had with my Graceful (just loved that bag, but had to let it go to fund another bag) was the corner wear.

(2) Do you find the strap to be stiff? I ask this question because I prefer softer, more supple straps. For example, I find the strap that comes with a Speedy B nearly unusable because it's so stiff. How is this strap?

Thanks in advance!
