Just wondering is anyone using the smaller sized version as a toiletry bag? I’ve been considering one since it could fit easily in my weekender.
16K is a lot of money, but this color and the crocodile is divine.
It is definitely nice to look at, but since this bag is supposed to be a practical item, I don't think that this material/price point really make sense (other than catering to the ultra rich of course)16K is a lot of money, but this color and the crocodile is divine.
I'm on the fence about getting this bag in just the regular leather. Like you said, it's practical, but kind of hard to get and I've had Loro Piana bags that just ended up sitting in my closet with no use so I'm fearful of getting their leather goods.It is definitely nice to look at, but since this bag is supposed to be a practical item, I don't think that this material/price point really make sense (other than catering to the ultra rich of course)
For what it is, I think the regular leather price point is best, however I personally prefer Ostrich because it feels a bit dressier for evenings and I've heard that Ostrich is a very resistant exotic. It's unfortunate that it's so hard to get now - I think the resellers trying to make people pay 4k for one in regular leather is nuts. I wouldn't pay full price (or more) for something you wouldn't get any after sales service for (as LP only services items bought from them directly).I'm on the fence about getting this bag in just the regular leather.

I'm surprised this little thing just came onto the handbag scene out of nowhere.
This is definitely the allure for me - to tide me over while I wait patiently for an MK & KPI have a couple of Kelly Pochettes and have always loved the shape of these small top handle bags. It's a nice alternative to a Kelly Pochette at a lower price point. The ability to use a strap is definitely useful.
Try different stores. Ask your friends who are traveling if they could locate one for you. Do whatever you can, and be patient. And I agree, I wouldn't not pay 4k for regular leather. That's not right.For what it is, I think the regular leather price point is best, however I personally prefer Ostrich because it feels a bit dressier for evenings and I've heard that Ostrich is a very resistant exotic.
