Any recommendations on bag inserts/organizers for Bolide? I know Maitai and Samorga has for Bolide. Any other I've missed? I would like to use it to preserve the shape of the bag (as mine is in Clemence) and to organize my things in the bag.

Thank you!

hi bolide owners~ i have just come across a bolide 37 in clemence Rose Jaipur. I can't seem to find too much info on the size. Do you guys find this bag too big? Am thinking of getting it as a workhorse and baby bag - since its big enough to fit my ipad and probably some wipes and diapers on the weekends. I am so surprised I can't find too much info on this size... :confused1:

My understanding is that the bolide 35 used to be called 37, but I don't know when they switched the size reference. I also think they are the same size which is confusing, but maybe about the way they measure. You will find much more info about the "35". I have a 35, and before the pandemic, I used it every day as my work horse/office bag. It fits a lot and is very light. However, my ipad presses against the side because of the domed shape, so be careful of that! I find it too big for the weekends, though, and switch to my victoria, which smooshes down some, or my kelly.

My kids are older, but I find I use my victoria a lot when doing things with them and need to carry a sweater, toys, snacks for my younger daughter. Much more casual than the bolide, with fabric lining, but sits securely on my shoulder/under my arm. It fits a ton, but also squishes down nicely when not full.

I have 35/37 Bolides in both gold and black and love them! I’m a big bag girl though, so this size is perfect for me. Definitely a workhorse bag.
