I’ve heard of others doing it too and apparently it’s why LC leaves the strap ends unfinished.

Wow! That's great to know! Cos once I retied the knot within, I did have a very long bit of leather trailing inside the bag.

I did consider rehoming my mini cuir... but it is just such an easy bag to use. We'll see whether 3D pouch crossbody garners more usage vs the mini cuir.

If you cut the strap and are worried about the remaining stitching unraveling you can put a few stitches at the strap end with a needle and thread. That’s what I did.

Hi, I read that you're interested in the pilot here is a picture of mine, in natural lighting.
Hope that helps! Don't hesitate too much though if you really want it, this color is on sale right now bc it's getting discontinued.

I fell in love with the Cuir line recently this year. I first started off with the crossbody, but needed something bigger. After a few months of shopping around for the right purse, I decided to jump the gun and get the small top-handle Cuir and customize it; I based the colours off of my very first Le Pliage Tote. Below is the result. I cannot believe how amazing it turned out! The craftsmanship, the colours, the leather, the size, everything!View attachment 4214318

I love the Cuir! I have the large LC Cuir in Black, Natural, Pebble and Red. It’s very roomy and a great travel companion. :P I keep them all conditioned. The black one is over three years old, and still looks new, although much softer now. (I have not taken any pics of the red one yet).

I have two Conditioners that I use, Cadillac Conditioner & Cleaner and AppleGuard Conditioner. I probably use the Cadillac Conditioner more often. I condition my LC Cuirs, LV and other leather bags and leather sneakers about every 5-6 months to keep the leather from drying out over time. :smile:
