First Bottega

[daisygrl]

I am contemplating on buying my first Bottega. I am looking at Bottega Bauletto (medium) in Fondant. Does any of you have a feedback on this bag? And secondly, do you, guys, know how often does Bottega have their price increase? Thank you!

I don’t have this bag. Looks like it could be an update to the Montaigne bag. I’m not a hand carry bag type but people who wore the Montaigne loved it. As for price increases I think it’s 1-2 times a year. We could see one in the April/May timeframe based on my recollection of past increases.

Thank you! This is helpful. I will google Montaigne bag.

And you can search in the BV subforum for discussions on the Montaigne

As @grietje suggested, it seems to filling the hole of the ever popular Montaigne. I don't have either, but between the Bauletto and the Montaigne, I'd rather have a Montagne because the straps are adjustable and I've found having adjustable handles on my Roma quite useful as the large has no shoulder strap. The black padded Intreccio Bauletto looks (but I'm eyeing another BV ).
