Congrats Starlight is really cute I don't have any small Sutton now maybe it's time to get one
I have discovered I really like them. I keep the crossbody strap attached so if I get tired of arm carry I just lengthen the strap and toss it on crossbody or or shoulder carry.
For those who have the metro city tote, do the shoulder straps break in with wear?
I recently purchased one and I’m currently using the cross body strap of my PS1 to keep the metro tote straps on my shoulder. I usually carry two bags to work. I use one as a regular purse and the metro tote to carry my breakfast, lunch and other stuff. I don’t mind holding the metro tote in my hand or crook of my arm but my preference is to keep it on my shoulder. That’s why I’m interested to find out if the slippage improves over time.
I considered the purse gummy product on Amazon to improve the grip of the shoulder straps but I don’t know if that’s a good idea.

Hi not sure which are u refering to? Metro city tote is Crosby city bag or Oxford Sutton ? Some times the name indicated on tag and website maybe a bit different. If the strap is Oxford material some said metallic or lacquer material stays on shoulder better.
This is the metro tote
the Oxford strap many ladies said it doesn't stays on shoulder. I think it depends on individual. I had one and the strap slipped but my hubby doesn't have this problem when he helped me carried the bag. Personally I have never used the purse gummy before. On FB mzw group many ladies use it and they seems to like it.
This is the metro tote
Thanks for the information.
I really appreciate. The tote is simply lovely. I was hesitant to attach the gummy strips to the strap but I will consider it some more.I have bought the purse gummies but haven’t used them yet. A lot of people on the FB group swear buy them but like you I am hesitant.Thanks for the information.
I’m glad to hear they work. I’m just hesitant on the possibility that I might need to take off the gummy and it ruins the straps. I saw a picture on Amazon where the customer showed how her shoulder straps were damaged when she had to take them off. However, her MZ Wallace tote straps were a fuschia color.
Have you tried just putting your stuff in the bag to see if the weight of it would help it hold on better?
Coincidentally I picked up some stuff after work tonight that added quite a bit of weight and the straps stayed on my shoulder more readily. I just love this bag. It’s my first MZ Wallace and I’m glad I purchased it regardless.
