Hey Guys, I just got my good buy.(49% off the original price from Ssense) Beautiful colour. Little concern for the light colour. I will put leather production before the first use.
Wow that's a pretty color. Congrats!
Sm pure in beige. It's lighter irl.
Gorgeous! Congrats! This is my next Pandora purchase, hoping to score a good preloved black in small.
Hi everyone,
I have a question with regard to the small pandora.
Is it using YKK zippers like the medium one?
I just got a pre-owned small pandora, which weirdly has givenchy paris embossed underneath each zipper. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a YKK instead.
Also, for the lastest version of the care booklet, do they now come with simplified chinese translation as well? And for the Eng section, the "GIVENCHY" printed specially different from other text?
Thank you for your time.
Look forward to hearing from someone
AFAIK, the YKK zippers are before 2015? I think Givenchy just added the Givenchy Paris embossed last year (or this year?) Same goes to Balenciaga as well, it used to be Lampos embossed in their zipper but they recently changed it to "B" emboss.
Yes all from Net a porter (and these were all apparently quality checked [emoji33]).
Some photos of one of the bags to get an idea [emoji6]

Wow thats alot of flaws especially the handle, i wonder if its QC issue because seems like they have a bad batch. Maybe try ordering from another website, since this will be your #4...[emoji45]
I tried to take more photos but my phone can't catch the color right. sorry about that. I think the color on ssense, farfatch catch the color pretty well. I would say it is ice blue which is great for summer & spring. Since it has a little bit gray undertone, it may good for the winter too.
I like the bag very much. The sheepskin is durable. Very functional. The only fall is the strap is not adjustable and too long for me. (I am 5'2). You can make a knot --- don't worry, the strap is very durable. Since the bag has the casual style, it looks good with the knot. Or you can shorten the strap, it cost me $25 and I think it worth it!
If I take the bag out next time, I will try to take some shoots outdoor and let you know
Thanks for the detailed feedback. I ended up purchasing a black mini pandora. But will keep an eye on a great deal like yours in the future. I'm really digging the pandora bag!!!I tried to take more photos but my phone can't catch the color right. sorry about that. I think the color on ssense, farfatch catch the color pretty well.

Hi everyone! I'm thinking about buying a medium Pandora but had a couple questions.
1. I'm looking for a really light bag because I have back injuries. I think the pepe leather is the lightest weight - is that right, and if not, what is? How heavy is it in medium? I carry things like the Balenciaga regular hardware besace, which is two pieces of leather with a light lining and a single, non-rolled handle, so it's super light.
2. can you help me figure out which color I'm trying to get? I'm looking for either black, a taupe neutral, or a light blond/caramel neutral. how many neutral pepe colors are out right now?
- camel (medium yellow brown) This may not be a current season color as I don't see it in many places
- a bunch that look generaly like medium-dark taupe to me, with some being more grey and some more warm. they're called charcoal, dark grey, grey and anthracite. One of these is probably the color I'd like, but I can't tell if there's more than one color or if I can just order any of them. Here are some examples:
Looks more grey (don't like this one as much): http://www.farfetch.com/ca/shopping...m-10695093.aspx?storeid=9383&ffref=chk_bp_pic
Looks warmer (I like this color the best): http://www.farfetch.com/ca/shopping...m-11299493.aspx?storeid=9462&ffref=chk_bp_pic
Lighter and warmer (second favorite color): http://www.farfetch.com/ca/shopping...m-11299493.aspx?storeid=9462&ffref=chk_bp_pic
3. Do these bags have natural color variations that are big enough that I might like one bag but not another, even if they're the same color?
thank you all very much!

Great choice in the panda. I'd recommend the small unless u really like bigger bags, like to carry lots of stuff and/or are taller than avg. The med is not that heavy, esp in the pepe, but it will be heavier than bal...like bal is the lightest bag out there, except for le pliage types, so its not a fair comparison.
Another light bag that G makes is the panda pure in small. Its a great bag too, even lighter than small pepe panda imo.
As for color, too bad they dont make tobacco or camel anymore, but they sound like more to your taste. U could wait and see if new colors come out for fall (stalk their website as they put the collections out there), but if u are dying for one and like the grey, its a really pretty neutral as well. I personally love the pepe the most in the panda. I have black and some other colors...you may start collecting them if youre not careful. [emoji6]
To answer your last question, there isnt too much variation between the bags, so you can rest easy. Their QC is pretty good from what Ive seen through the years.
Also look thru all the pages of this thread and others in this sf, as there are oots of pics for you to see the pepe in diff lighting.
So I exchanged my first Pandora (from a few posts ago) for the classic small black sugar Pandora. It's absolutely wonderful! However, I noticed that it scuffs quite easily. I thought that this leather would be more durable. Is this a problem for anyone else?
Hi randr21 - thanks very much - that was really helpful!!
I ended up ordering both the small (Caramel) and medium (Charcoal). The small is too small and the strap is too long (I like wearing bags on my shoulder, not cross body). The I like the drape with the medium better. Caramel is too warm. Charcoal is close to what I'm looking for, but would prefer more taupe (i.e. a little warmer) than just straight grey. Is there a color from a past season that would be close to that? I've also seen Anthracite listed as color #25, which is the same number as Charcoal - are they the same color?
I'll watch out for more colors on the website as well. Does anyone know when the next season bags are likely to appear?
I would love to read this thread but since the upgrade I have to click through on each picture, which opens it in a new window, which is excruciating. I'm hoping it's fixed soon.

I bought a small mineral blue Pandora and I'm disappointed to say that I don't love it, I like it but thought I would love it based on all of my research. It's very roomy and I like the color but the strap is too long. it's fine carrying it by the handle but I was looking forward to carrying it both ways.
