Hi to everyone.
This is my first time posting. I have been lurking here and finally put in an order for a Theia midi in everose diamond leather and Calista in port merinos.

Now that i am waiting for them to arrive, i am itchy and thinking of a Soulmate midi or Selene zip midi.

Can anyone tell me what these 2 bags weigh? I like leather but if these are particularly heavy, i guess i will look for nylon instead.
Welcome to the MM group we are so pleased to have you join us. I love what you have selected for your first MM bag. I am looking forward to seeing them.

I happen to really like the midi Soulmate style. I had 6 of them. 2 in Africa leather, 3 in nubuck and 1 in nappa. I gave 3 of them away as gifts to friends and my daughter. My daughter wanted the bronze Africa midi Soulmate. My friend loved the blue Africa midi Soulmate so I gave it to her. Another close friend wanted the cream shimmer nubuck midi Soulmate so I gave it to her. I now have a nubuck Ochre midi Soulmate, a cobalt blue nubuck midi Soulmate and a peachy pink nappa (bespoke leather) midi Soulmate. The cobalt blue nubuck I have never used not because I do not like it I think because I have too many MM bags. (I have bought about 33 MM bags some as gifts but mainly for me. I now have 24 MM bags - Yikes did I admit to that many bags!!) . The peachy pink nappa midi Soulmate I use all the time and also the ochre nubuck midi Soulmate. I do not find the bag heavy to carry. Although I have to admit that I do not stuff my bags with lots of stuff. I have a wallet, check book, kindle, makeup bag, pencil/pen pouch, cell phone, car keys and a small Penelope from MM for odds and ends. I sometimes carry a small water bottle. I also have 3 midi Selenes but not the zip version. I have a Africa lead midi Selene which I absolutely love and do not find heavy at all, a black pebbled leather midi Selene and an amaranto pebbled leather midi Selene. I use all of them on a regular basis. I will weigh my midi Soulmates tomorrow as I have a scale for measuring postal packages which is very accurate.

Didn't you tell me that you gave the cobalt one to a friend as well? Wasn't it you that put it on the BST for trade for a smaller bag or was that someone else and I'm having a brain fart?

I did put it on BST for a trade. The friend I was gifting it to indicated she preferred purple and so I gifted her my purple Aphrodite. She indicated that she would use a purple bag more often. So I still have the cobalt blue nubuck midi Soulmate.
 
Thank you everyone for the warm welcome.

I must thank all of you for always posting such detailed information. All your photos helped me a lot.

I really like the Soulmate design, but i always carry a waterbottle plus umbrella so i guess that might be too much added weight. Perhaps one day Marco might do a mini!

I have to say his service is excellent and far above what i would expect considering he is so busy.

I asked for a photo of the amethyst pompei and this is what I got. It is a lovely color.
