Hi,

Is this the Le Pliage Cuir? And if yes, is this a good size? Not sure if this is the smallest. TIA!

Yes that is the LP cuir. It's a small (the smallest excluding the mini crossbody)

For me the size is good as I'm petite. I have both small and medium and the small looks better on my frame but I like the size of the medium as it holds more "mommy items"

Hope this helps.

Hello everyone! I've been a long time admirer of the le pliage cuir collection from a distance, due to budget constraints. Recently, BTR had a huge sale of many cuirs, so I took the plunge and got not one, but two. Both were colors that I wanted, and I couldn't decide between the size..

I looked through many threads about BTR here before buying, and my impression is that most bags they put out do turn out to be authentic. Many complaints with the site had to do with shipping, customer service, and charging way before shipment (which is an atrocious policy). In general, there doesn't seem to be too many fake cuirs floating around anyway. Knowing the risks, I still had to give it a shot... Fingers crossed that everything works out.

I must admit it's a bit scary to dip my toes into a forum, as I'm not much a poster anywhere on the net. Would it be a good idea for me to make a post in the "authenticate this" thread once I receive the bags? I know the thread is catered towards long time members, so I don't want to take advantage of anyone's kindness. I do hope to check the authenticity one way or another and share my first BTR experience for all those who might be interested in future deals.

Hello and welcome! I don't know anything about BTR. But there definitely ARE fake cuirs. It doesn't hurt to get an authenticity opinion.

welcome and congrats! The LP Cuir is so pretty. Can't wait to see what you bought. You can try posting on the authenticate this thread with proper format, of course.:smile1:

Thank you both for the warm welcome! Pleasantly surprised so far that they shipped quickly as promised. Nervous and giddy that my bags are on their way :) I will definitely take some shots when they arrive.

Hi,
Am very new to the longchamp family and just recently joined purse form to stalk all your lovely bags hehe.
Am planning to get my friend to help me purchase the le pliage cuir when she goes to France this July(because the prices in Singapore is ridiculously high !).
Would like to seek your opinions on a few issues though :

1. Are the handles long enough to also carry over the shoulder?
2. Is blue and navy the same colour ? Or are they both seasonal ?

Thank you so much!!

Hi, welcome :wave: The Pliage Cuir is a great bag, good choice! What size do you want to get? I can carry it by the handles on my shoulder but it's not very comfortable, as the bag would sit directly under my armpit. I just use the strap to carry it over my shoulder, and the handles to carry it on my arm/in my hand. Blue and navy are different and both seasonal. Navy is not available now but blue is (blue is brighter than navy).

Hi mermaid.braid :D
I am thinking of getting the small size because i'm quite petite.

Went through this thread a little from the back and saw a post with a photo of Navy, Indigo, and Blue! :loveeyes:
Doubt my friend would be able to get the navy for me since it is seasonal.
Am now a lil worried that she wouldn't be able to get the blue too :(

I always thought i wanted it in black but after seeing the shades of blue LC produces... now i can't decide!

Hi Tinkerella,

I just bought a Le pliage cuir large at the Longchamp outlet at MBS for $499.50 - 50% off !! Limited colors - mainly pink, orange and red.

I think it is either end of season sale or due to GSS! Check them out locally. ;-)

ooh! that's a really great deal!!! I doubt the black/blue is on sale?
Did you find out whether the small size ones are?

Thanks for sharing!:smile1:
