Excellent choices on the Murakami line!! I love the speedy with the flowers 🌺Technically, the PA is a January in store purchase, speedy 20 collected in February. I wanted to pool them together and do a Murakami family reveal.

Congratulations 😊
Thank you! I am really happy with the result. I only regret I did not take a picture before I started repairing it. There were around 20-30 pulls/runs, some of them quite complicated a long. I did it in a few sessions, sometimes it is good to take a break, leave it alone and come back. SS stoles are super hard to repair, I honestly gave up on that. The main reason is the structure, it is almost impossible to replicate the structure of the fabric since there are gaps between the individual threads (gauzy fiber), if you know what I mean. Great job with that!
Ok, so it's not the right color strap and it's a bit too short for my liking but this is what I'm thinking. Grabbed a strap I had on hand to give it a try. Doesn't slip off my shoulder like almost every shoulder bag I have tried.
Omg 😍😍😍. I’m trying to refrain from this urge!!! I adore this!!! It’s so wonderfully slouchy and the zipper!! Do you like it better with the shorter strap? Is the one that comes with it crazy long? Since it’s for men I’m guessing so. My other men’s bags have long straps.
Once you decide on the length you like that will make it so much better ❤️❤️
I carried my graceful today and was irritated the whole time 😂
Congrats on the bag and thanks for posting about it. I had no idea this bag existed and am now obsessed. I love hobos and always thought that LV could offer more/better designed hobos. I'm pleased with their offerings the past couple of years and this one looks like a keeper!
As soon as I added the shorter strap it sealed the deal. I always look for a shoulder bag and nothing stays on my shoulder. I have bought and sold 2 Graceful's because I couldn't take it. The strap that it comes with is good! It has 5 holes and on the shortest it's a good shoulder carry and hits at my waist (I'm just shy of 5'8"). On the 3rd hole it's a perfect crossbody, also hitting at my waist. The issue I have with men's bags is the hardware is too large and heavy. The strap is significant and adds weight because it's thick and the clasp is large but I think the bag is so great I'll be ok with using the original strap occasionally. Maybe it's time to let go of that irritating Graceful 😍
You're welcome! I don't post much on here but I lurk all the time. I thought this bag needed a little attention because I know how difficult it is to find a good hobo. If you decide to get it or find a different hobo please let us know!
Oh, I love this! Is it the canvas or the leather one? How do you like the size? How would you rate the space inside this bag as compared to lets say a Speedy? Enjoy your new addition! ❤️
Thank you.
This is the canvas version.
I’m used to big bags, so I’m still getting used to this size, but overall I think it’s the perfect travel bag. Fits enough, and great strap options.
Definitely smaller than a speedy, but keeps things more organized imo.
