I’m a sucker for this type of handle especially on supple leather, but anyone else finds the rigide front “panel” kinda ruins the overall aesthetics? Maybe just me...

Also I need to see it in person to convince myself that the turn lock is going to be ok holding all the weight inside the bag especially for the 35cm ones...

Otherwise love the idea, a more secured alternative to picotin.

I loved this when I saw the prefall collection but now I'm not so sure. The pointy sides and general structure remind me of an unsnapped Moynat Gaby, which I prefer snapped. I do like that it has an exterior pocket and the strap for the smaller one.

I tried this on recently in Paris. The SA said that it was selling very well for a new model and she believes it will become very popular.

I was excited to try it on but I had a couple of issues with it.
Because the strap was attached to the back panel rather than the top of the bag, it did not hang nicely when worn on the shoulder. It did not hang straight down so the bottom of the bag lay against my body, but the top was about an inch or so away.
The strap was also too thin, which the SA agreed, so she brought out several other bag straps.
None alleviated the way the bag hung.

I also wasn’t a fan of the hard panel in front vs the softness of the other parts of the bag.

This is good information to know, did you by any chance try the bag crossbody or do you think the strap was long enough to allow it to be worn as such?
