For all of you that have this bag in the medium size- are you loving it, does it feel lightweight and functional for daily use? I obsessed with this bag in the nude and pepto pink colors. I can't seem to pull the trigger even though it's look excites me and makes my heart sing more than any other bag right now! I keep thinking it won't fit my casual style or it will quickly look dated... I just do t know, but would love thoughts and opinions!!

I got the small size and just returned it. I felt like small size did fit a lot but I was concerned about stretching it out too much. But the big thing that made me return it was that it would fall forward when placed down. I guess the lack of structure and items in the bag, cause it to fall forward. It really bothered me bc I felt like I needed to make a conscious effort to place it nicely on its back, which I didnt like. However, it did go with practically everything and could go from casual to dressy...
This is helpful information! I have the Noir Pochette Metis from LV and to be honest I rarely use it! It's not big enough for very basic work essentials and I'm finding this more and more important in a bag so that I'm using them. I default to my speedy b's typically
Its called grain leather but it felt very similar to Chanel's Caviar leather. Definitely more sturdy and resistant, which will help the bag keep its lustrous look over the years
I have the pochette metis and love it way more than the small size marmont. But since you are interested in the medium, I'm sure this size will hold a lot more than the metis. I did like the ease of use of the marmont as everything was open and visible and easy to access. But like the above commenter said I feel like the structure will get worse with time. I want to also mention that I saw the leather on the bottom half of bag getting wrinkly even without use (just putting my stuff in and put and experimenting at home). However I think maybe my expectations were a bit high as I do have a Chanel flap and I think its just natural for me to compare to that.
