I find my medium goat super durable. But I love the look and feel of the Pepe! My mini pepe has been getting tons of wear, holding up great. But the leather or at least the finish is different from the larger version, also Pepe in same color.

Thanks! Glad your mini is holding up well. My small pepe too is gonna be two y/o in May and it's as if I bought the bag yesterday. I'm also with you on the look and feel of pepe compared to the goat. [emoji173]️
My small Pandora in goatskin just arrived yesterday! I love how it feels but it's still rather boxy. Will it slouch/drape as nicely as the medium? I tried on the medium at NM and it draped so nicely but I don't usually carry that much stuff. They didn't have the small to try on so I ordered it online. Just wondering if I should keep the small. The medium seemed big since I'm used to small bags. I'm 5'6" so it looked ok on me. Thanks!

I'm the same height, I don't have the small, but I do like the way the medium drapes and. I don't usually carry a great deal. I've just bought a second pandora and the leather on this one is a bit thicker so its more boxy at the moment than my first. I'm sure it'll be slouchy soon enough but that might be something affecting your new bag also?
I am also 5'6" and I have the pandora in mini and a couple in small. I find that the small does get quite slouchy/flat but it takes a bit to break it in. I prefer the way the small looks over the medium because I found the medium's size made it look sort of like a messenger bag once it was slouchy which I didn't care for.
can't wait for it to break in!Hi ladies. I'm planning to get a mini pandora this summer. Anyone here ever tried to double up the strap so it would get shorter? I find the strap too long, I'm 5'2, and there's no other bag handle for carrying it with your crook of arm unlike in its bigger versions. Tia!
I'm 5'6 and i prefer the small on me too! I find the mini way too small to fit most of my stuff esp with a full sized wallet inside. Plus i like how convenient the handles of the small are!
I think this is the right place for this, because I just want to take a moment and talk about how much I love and appreciate this bag. I don't have a big collection and am really picky about what bag to buy, even though I admire many different brands and styles. When I first saw the Pandora, I thought it was weird and ugly. However, it just kept standing out and I slowly got more and more intrigued by the style. I finally bought my black medium pepe last year and it is already my most used bag.
I love how the bag works for almost all functions. A trip to Home Depot? No problem. Brunch with friends? But of course! It's amazing how the bag changes "look" based on how you wear it. With the short strap, it looks really stylish and modern. With the longer strap, it becomes more subdued and understated. And there are 5 ways to wear this bag: holding the short handle, short handle on your arm, short handle on shoulder, long strap on shoulder, and cross body. The thick strap also makes it very comfortable and prevents it from slipping off or digging into your skin.
The bag also reminds me of Hermione's bag in Harry Potter--it can seemingly carry everything! I normally just have my wallet and a few pouches or card wallet, but if I need to bring along a water bottle, an umbrella, a cardigan or scarf, they can all fit. Or if I'm out and bought some small items, they can probably fit in my bag.
The leather is also really durable. I protect my bag but don't go out of my way to baby it. It's been put on the floor (when I have no other option) and caught in rain, but still in great condition. Granted, the pepe leather hides a lot of things, but that just makes it all the easier for me to use. It feels great being able to use my bag instead of worrying over it.
This is such a great daily bag. In a way, it almost sucks how amazing the Pandora is because I never want to switch out of it!

An ode to the Pandora.....I think we can all relate to this in some way. I too initially thought it was the ugliest thing ever, until the right one caught my eye. Now I have too many to count. Such a cool functional bag!
Hi ladies - I've been debating to get the medium pandora either in black or taupe and I need help to decide 
I have a few black bags already, but I think black is better with this style of bag. What do you guys think? For those who have the lighter color ones, do you find that the bag get dirty easily? Thanks in advance for your help!

Great choice! I got one too like you, but mine is the small one. I love it and the color is so beautiful, it's neutral yet it still adds a pop of color.
