Hi All,

My SA just told me she has a mauve Sylvestre Halzan25, I took half a second to decide whether I should go for it, as originally I was standing strong to wait for a verso. But she said the verso is going to be very very hard. So I think I'm going to go for it. For all this time, I have liked the Halzan25 more than the mini Lindy. Lots of people would probably think I'm crazy, but I love how versatile Halzan is.
Third to chime in agreement. Halzan wasn't on my radar but after getting the 25, I found it to be my most used go to bag. I thought I would love the mini Lindy, but for me, the strap was cumbersome and the opening was fussy for me. I do love the Lindy 26, versatile, and one of the few shoulder bags that stayed on my shoulder.

I have two mini Halzan's, one in black the other in Rose Eglantine, and they are two of my most used bags. The strap is the perfect length, and can be adjusted, it holds everything I need to carry, and the leather is durable.
 
I recently took a month-long trip with just my Halzan 31 (crazy experiment with minimalism!). It worked. The Halzan is a fantastic travel bag because it is so versatile, holds a lot without looking huge, and has those great exterior pockets that still manage to look sleek even when occupied.

She is resting now but I'm looking forward to taking her out again in a week or two.....
 
I was actually debating between mini and 26. But I’m usually a crossbody bag girl, and I worry that the 26 is a bit bulky when carried, like you have to push the bag back when carrying it?
I'm trying to think if I have to do that, but I think the bag sits just below my bended elbow if you know what I mean? I like to have different styles if bag, so I went with Lindy 26 for shoulder bag and Halzan25 for crossbody ☺️

I have joined the Halzan fan club! This lovely arrived yesterday. Halzan 31 in Rouge Grenat. Of course I have already stuffed it full of my stuff and have been carrying it around. This bag is so "me". And so very practical while at the same time it has a casually stylish vibe. I want it in alllll the colors now!

Hello! I just purchased yesterday In gray evercolor and noticed these 3 vertical streaks on the interior leather which I’m a little bummed (bottom right corner of pic it’s subtle) Is this something I should contact my SA about, I am wondering if it is the natural leather or an actual scratch of some sort. I am really excited to use this bag it seems so practical and useful and not in your face!

Always frustrating to find :) …. I’ve had and seen that in bags - it happens, and the bags are sold and bought so at least some people don’t mind. That said, you’d be able to find one without it if you wanted.

Thanks for your response! Should I ask my SA or will it bother her? I’m a bit novice, she made it sound more of a surprise the bags were in the store in the first place (in new NYC flagship)

They're not scratches, they look to be stratifications from slipping slightly in the roller. Looks a lot worse in Box and if on the outside. It's a slight stretch/non-stretch (like human stretch marks).

It's a beautiful bag, and this subtle so wouldn't personally upset me.
