Got my P’tit today in etoupe with palladium hardware! Yet to unbox it but will post pics when I do. Might even post a YouTube vid.
It’s pretty big and I think it’ll fit quite a lot!

Loving all the pics and reviews of the p'tit version. I think this is gonna be my next H bag - love the look and functionality of it. I am just waiting for them to release it in some fun colors.
to be fair, I feel the amount of bags on H EU is a reflection of the European economy more than H working .... which isn't great, I feel. I haven't seen bags just sitting there and not moving for quite some time. It is interesting what is flying out - the P'tit arcon one of them, the regular Arcon - not so much. I see 3 different versions just sitting there.
here are the pics!
You can adjust the strap & loop it around as a shoulder bag. I have the shoulder bag on the shortest setting and crossbody in the longest setting.
I’m 5’5”. Got the matching Pegasus for it too! The Pegasus is PM size.
The front pocket doesn’t fit a phone. Good for keys, cards, hand sanitizer, AirPods. The lining of this pocket is swift leather - super nice!!

Gorgeous!!!!! What a nice color.
The bag doesnt seem that small! What a great size!
Finally got my Arcon! It's so beautiful and unexpectedly lightweight. I thought the shoulder buckle would create a lot of weight, but it doesn't. Love the outer pocket which is big enough for my phone. My only complaint is I wish they added 1 or 2 more holes to the strap adjustment so I could wear it more comfortably crossbody.

So pretty! Makes me question if I should have gotten etoupe instead of gold!? Which HW is this!? Have you thought about how you’ll use the clip!
I wondered what that other loop was for! It looks super cute as a shoulder too. I sometimes feel a little silly having both, but the sizes make the bag look very different imo. I think the larger size is very striking, and have had people notice it because of the design. However I do find for all day, lots of walking, it feels heavy to me by the end of the day. The mini is smaller capacity, but so nice for everyday travel and I love the fact it has a zipper closure. I don’t know if I can pick one I like more, I really do like them both so much!
I know I’m splitting hairs but would the irregularity of the upper front side stitching / buckling of leather bother you? Do you see how it’s bowing out and creating ripples/bulges while the backside (the side the doesn’t show of course) is totally flat and level? Does others’ bags do this too and I’m being extra?
I do love this bag though so much and am grateful to have it
just a little disappointed that the front side is a touch less nice than the back side though and I’m an extremely detail oriented person. Debating if I should ask my SA her opinion

I’m like the least picky most chill “it’s handmade, expect some imperfections!” person and this would bug even me. I’d definitely bring it to my SAs attention; though prepare yourself for “we’ll have to send it to the spa for assessment” as your only offered option.

I think this is because of the hardware in the front - I saw the same in the one I sent back. It might be more pronounced in some but I especially noticed it when I put stuff in and the zipper wasn't closed. One of the reasons I am thinking still whether I really want to get this bag - for Togo, the leather is quite soft (especially compared to vintage Togo - I have a Trim from 2000 that wears like Iron). Maybe that is why Fashionphile lists them as Maurice leather - which is funny because Hermes is selling them as Togo...I know I’m splitting hairs but would the irregularity of the upper front side stitching / buckling of leather bother you?

ETA: sorry so to answer the question: yes it would and does bother me.
Sigh, yes I don’t mind either I think it’s the buckling of the leather at the top that bothers me most.
Would you just send her the same pics - do you think I could even propose exchanging for another one (if available). I purchased on last Tuesday and I still want this bag like I don’t intend returning but would love if it’s an option to compare to another.
How would you word this to your SA without sounding super annoying!
Yes thay may be a possibility. Or in tandem with the curved design is also likely harder to work with which I’m sure is a factor as well.
I bought in store, and wondering if they have a second one I could compare it to while stock is “high” (relative term!)
