Longchamp Le Pliage Cuir - your opinions

[l.ch.]

Dear all, may I please ask you something... would you recommend the S or M size for everyday use? I don’t carry a laptop, but a water bottle, often a coffee thermos (small) and sometimes a lunchbox, along with the normal stuff (wallet, two key pouches, eyeglasses and small cosmetic case).
Thanks for your input!

I think you will definitely need the medium size for all of that. The small does hold a lot but not more than a wallet, cosmetic case, and a few other small essentials. And, depending on the size of your lunch box, it may be tight in even a medium-size. I no longer have both sizes so others may have a different opinion.

I agree with the previous comments and recommend a Medium.

Thank you @Tomsmom, @cbarrus and @Quynh.Hamburg for the replies!
I was anyway leaning towards the medium, but now you convinced me. I was also considering the L, but not sure if it will look more like a travel bag...

I have only seen pictures of the large and it does seem huge. I would definitely not try it for everyday. The medium is a nice size everyday bag without seeming overwhelming because it will slouch more than the small.

I use a base shaper so no problems with corners

I've got no issues with mine in terms of wear but did notice that one corner of my Etoiles cuir rubbed off a little. Understandable though as I had rubbed that corner against the wall when shuffling in a crowded mall.

What does everyone think of the cuir backpack? Any thoughts or reviews?

Roomier than it seems even though I do have the slightly smaller discontinued size. It's a great bag

It looks like due to the closure style, one would be unable to take things out of the bag while it’s still on your shoulder? Do u need to set it down to open it? Unlike the nylon one?

I have the old size. I don't have any problem taking my things out from the bag, it stays on my shoulder.

How do you do that?nif the strap stays on the shoulder n the bag is hanging down, wouldn’t the closure stay tight?

I can easily move the closure up and just open it like usual.
