does anyone have any idea where i can get the PTTM sasha in rust? i got one for christmas but felt guilty about the price so i returned it and now i regret it so i've been searching online to find it again! i found one on ebay in the marsh brown which i ordered but i'm still set on the rust and want to find that if i can. any help would be appreciated, thanks!
 
Natasha is back on shopbop at $398 now.
I think Ive discovered why the lining bothers me so much. On my Sasha when you open it, the whole opening is leather and the lining is just inside the actual bag. The Natasha in the picture shows the lining on the flap too with just a small bit of leather around it. Were the old Natashas like this? I think it makes the lining stand out more which doesnt look as nice. Hope shopbop get other colours though if I do decide to get one I dont want to pay $100 more from NAP.

Hey, that's right, Jaime! Great observation. My old black Natasha is like your Sasha. The whole flap is leather.
 
Yeh I thought so from memory of the pics. Its almost like cost cutting by eliminating the extra leather under there but I think it really lets it down. I would probably have already ordered it if not for that. I think Ill keep waiting. I could probably handle it in black but I just dont get why theyve done that.
 
Actually, you know what...I was mistaken. My old Natasha is actually the same as the new one (just ran upstairs to check). I think the reason it seems less blatant is because the background of the old fabric is black. That lettered lining is pretty loud. Anyway, just wanted to clear that up in case I had misled anyone.

i have a black natasha and it's the same as the spotlight one except with a different lining. i think it's just the sasha that has the all-leather flap.
 
Jaime:did they say when they will be getting new colors? i don't want to pay extra for ones on the bay. there is a used one asking for $200 more than retail :-s
 
In the next couple of months they said. No definite date.
I'd like a black one but I am considering saddle. I think the lining would go better with black though. Would only be $70 difference with conversion to buy from NAP over shopbop. Hope they don't take too long for them to get more because I have a problem with waiting.
 
^ me and you together ;)
i'm waiting for the pouchette to be delivered today. waiting takes ages

but yeah, i still punch myself for not liking it when it first came out, should've snatched one up then, the lining is way better!
 
Yeh I only really got interested at the start of this year and luckily managed to snap up 2 of the sasha which is a better size for me. I am considering the Natasha for when I take the kids out and have a lot of walking to do. Want a lighter hands free bag for such occasions.

the rust is really pretty but i think those are long gone by now. nordstrom had it online again last month but they sold out after less than an hour. ebay and bonanzle might be your best bet at this point. the marsh brown is nice but i prefer the rust in the earth tone family. good luck with your search!
 
Hello

I'm new and have had a quick skim through this tread and can't seem to find an answer. Has anyone had problems with the Petal To The Metal bags? I've heard complaints of them being really heavy and the strap not being abel to take the weight of the bag, so they split.

Anyone else had problems?
