Hooray for the Halzan...

At the beginning of this year, I ordered a mini Halzan in Jaune Poussin. The bag has not yet arrived at the store because it is a part of the Spring PO. Now I am not sure if I would like it or not? Also, I have ordered three more bags, mini Roulis blue hydra, mini constance Cappucine and a B25 Geranium. Maybe I ordered too much for the spring? Maybe I should pass this mini Halzan?
 
Can anybody answer my questions considering the Halzan:
all I have ever seen (online, never in store) were Halzans in Clemence and 30 cm (about 12 inches).
I read here about a mini as well - how big is ist? Are there other sizes?
There must be different leathers as well I suppose?
I am worried about the clemence and rain, does it really blister that easily?

It is my favorite H bag, I like the style and the versatility, but online seems to be the only way to get it. At the European H.com site there are a blue saint cyr and a poppy one listed, both in Clemence.

There is the original size (prob the 30cm ) and now the new mini size. I have just seen the smaller ones on display in store. I think it's about the size of a TPM Evelyn on its side if you know what I mean. My original unlined one has gone in rain with no blisters. Capacity is good, versatile also. No luck at your local store?

HoneyLocks, a Mini Halzan sounds wonderful! I just googled it and found images. Hermes sketches of both sizes popped up, so you can see comparison pics. I love the size, and look forward to seeing in person!
 
Clemence is one of the hardiest of H leathers. It will not blister in rain (the chief water-averse leathers are box and exotics). I've had a Clemence bag get soaked and be none the worse for it.
 
Do you think the roulis would hold more? they seem to have more depth.

I have both and the Roulis has less capacity to expand as it is Boxy and structured. I think they would fit a similar number of items but the Halzan can probably fit something on the top due to the triangular shape and slight slouch, like an Evelyn. Gosh I hope I explained that reasonably clearly!

hermesbos, Jaune Poussin is such a gorgeous yellow! :love: When your Mini Halzan arrives, and if you decide to take it, please drop in again with a photo! :graucho:

The halzan does hold a bit more indeed. I could put something at the very top of the halzan and though it won't close completely it still looks alright. With the Roulis it looks a bit odd not bring able to slot the front flap when overly full.
 
Has anybody experience color transfer with the Azalean or Gold Halzan? Are these two different colors? They look SOOO similar to me that I would have guessed they are the same.

Thank you!!!
