Hello, I am thinking of getting my first Capucines. I tried the black one on in BB size at the boutique today and I really like it. However I have heard mixed reviews on wears and tears especially the Capucines losing its shape over the years. Many of the online pics I have seen showing the bags look slouchy. I noticed one at the boutique looks the same on display. Have you noticed the same issues with yours since you have had it for a while? Do you stuff the bag while storing it? Thank you for your help!I have Capucines BB and I would choose Capucines BB all over again. I find it very versatile (have it in black) - you can wear it shoulder, crossbody or handheld. It’s both classic and modern at the same time and can easily go with any outfit - either super dressy (hand held), smart casual (shoulder) or super casual (crossbody). I also prefer Capucines leather over Lockme leather (feel and look). My Capucines wears really well (had it for about 2 years now) however, if I am not mistaken, my understanding is that Lockme leather does not wear as well overtime (not personal experience though, just reviews I have seen and/or heard).
Hi, I do store it with air paper inside when not in use. I also don’t overstuff my BB though - not when I use it and not when I store it. My daily essentials are mini Pochette, 4 key holder, a compact wallet, hand sanitizer, tissues and my phone. It all fits no problem. Thus far I have seen bigger Capucines (PM and MM) with the structure loss, but I assume if one overstuffs their bag it would be inevitable in any size.Hello, I am thinking of getting my first Capucines.
