Is anyone else thinking that the clip/clasp on the bag might scuff the leather underneath it? Similarly to how the lock on the turnet for a Birkin or Kelly will cause a U shaped darker line on the leather (for lighter colours).

the lobster clasp doesn't look like it moves from side to side. looks like the movement is perpendicular to the surface of the leather

the lock on Birkins and Kellys creates the smiley because it swings sideways, scratching the leather

Wait- is THIS the mini Arçon? I tried it on at the SS24 presentation I went to in the fall. I didn’t realize it was the mini version lol! Here are some pics. I didn't know it could be worn cross body so I did not try adjusting the strap.

Super cute but what do you think about the carrying capacity since it's so flat?

Honestly I wasn’t really even thinking about that! I was mostly focused on the RTW…(and the mini plume!) and I’m usually not a fan of hobo bags so I didn’t think I would get this bag, not realizing it could also be worn cross body lol. Here’s a picture I took of the inside with all the stuffing and it looks like it can at least hold the basics and probably more than the typical mini bag. Sorry wish I could be more helpful!

I’ve been looking for a casual shoulder bag and also interested in trying barenia so snagged the regular Arcon. The strap is smooth barenia and the body of the bag is barenia faubourg so I get to try both. So far so good!

Wow! Love the barenia faubourg leather on this bag. I can see this bag gaining a rich saturated patina in the future. Just curious, how much did this Arcon in BF leather cost?

It looked quite big on you for a “mini” bag! Do you think the external pocket would fit a phone?

Thanks for sharing! I hope you enjoy and wear it well! Would you be open to sharing a mod shot (no pressure at all!). Hopefully will try it on in the future :smile:

Yes I thought so too, which is why I didn’t realize it was the “mini” version! And no I don’t think the external pocket could fit a phone. Maybe your metro card lol.

Im hoping I can try on both sizes once the mini is in stores. I love the esthetic - although the exterior design is definitely seeming not so functional especially in this size, aside from hand warming haha

I was thinking about one of those banana bags, I think I’ll wait to consider this one instead :)
