I'm glad I got the med. size. Are those the new handles? They don't look much different.
Love the color!

The handles were not redesigned for the small.

Here is a modeling shot of the small. Model is 5'5"...IMO, I think it's a good size. Small but not too small if you KWIM?

Thanks Erica, I love that size SMALL, it's just the right size for me & the redesigned handles makes the bag hangs better now. :tup:

Now, when is the Black coming???

How cute is this....!!!! Erica, is this baby Pink looks exactly like the actual color? This is really pretty.

I wish I've tried & seen the Small IRL already, to make sure I really love it, I may want this Pink too esp w/ the $100 discount going on this weekend.

She said the handles are not redesigned for the small. Does it fit over the shoulder? :thinkin:

Ladies I hope ye can help me. I have my MT a week now & love it! Was in the UK yesterday & had a lady asking me where I got my bag...anyway...there is a label on the inside of the bag saying "Made in Italy" & on the flipside of this it says "100% viscosa"......now I don't speak Italian but I'm guessing this to be 100% viscose. Is this the reason the bag isn't scuffing or distressing?? Please help because I thought this bag was leather & now I'm wondering if I've purchased a very expensive plastic bag ??? :-s

Colors are pretty close...natural light no flash. It's a beautiful pink for spring. It's soft but rich. Yes, with the $100 the price is really unbeatable

I know you are patiently waiting for the Black...I sent an e-mail again yesterday to inquire and they assure me with a week or 2. I guess better not to rush them for quality issues.

Viscosa means rayon which I think is referring to the actual tag :smile1:

The other side says "vera Pelle" which translates to "real leather".

No, it does not.

The redesigned medium will.

What I mean is the new placement of the long handles.

I think we've been calling those "straps" to avoid confusion :smile1:

(I quite like them too)

Hi- I'm interested in buying the small MT bag from HG bags but i haven't visited PF for a couple of months so i need to be updated. there were initial issues with quality from what some posters said and the handle thing, which i believe has been rectified, could someone tell me if the handles on the small bag are large enough to fit ovet the shoulder or is it strictly hand held unless using the shoulder strap. also could someone who actually has one tell me about the quality, i always thought MT bags were good quality, i remember seeing one in Italy about 6 years ago it cost about 1200 euros then, has the quality gone down. does anyone know. thanks

Strictly handheld. The handles on the MEDIUM size bag were lengthened, not the small.

I have a dark blue/GHW from Erica's very first shipment. While I'm not thrilled with the quality for the price I paid ($695), I think the new pricing is more in line with the workmanship. That being said, I haven't switched out of this bag since I got it in January. It's an absolute workhorse that goes with everything. I have scraped some of the color off the edges since I'm not uber-careful with this bag, but it still looks just about brand-new otherwise.
