Ode to the Roulis

[kobe939]

I’ve purchased this bags last year but never had a chance to post here, my first roulis 23. I love the size since I am about 170cm with a curvy body, this looks great on me as a shoulder bag, but not as a crossbody. Regardless, love the feel on the grizzly, and so easy to wear dress up or down. I am thinking of getting a mini roulis in the future.

A C24 is a much larger bag. Do you carry a lot? If so that one might suit your lifestyle more. The mini Roulis holds all I need and a bigger bag would just not really work. If I do need something larger I would rather a kelly 28 or B30 than a C24 but that’s just personal preference.

Thank you! I’m actually also thinking of bringing it to work once I start returning to office! But also looking for a handbag that can be worn casually... not sure of the phone you are using but do you think an iPhone pro can fit into your mini roulis comfortably? Thank you!

I am not sure if iphone pro can fit into the mini roulis. My Samsung S20plus with case barely fits in it (it does fit but it's a close call). I am not sure what you need to fit in for work but all I can fit in my mini roulis is: phone, credit cards, lipstick, hand sanitizer and hand cream without overcrowding the bag. That being said I would love to have it in barenia leather...

iphone pro fits just fine. Pro max not sure.

I don’t carry much at all so the mini Roulis is quite effortless to me.

According to my personal opinion a mini Roulis in barenia faubourg permabrass would look way more casual than a C24. However, I can not manage to use a bag as small as a mini Roulis for my day to day errands, as I tend to take a lot of stuff with me (my keys alone would fill the mini Roulis). So, as others mentioned, it will depend on the amount of space you need in your bag... happy deciding

Personally, I feel that Roulis is a more casual bag especially when thinking about bringing it to the office as you really can’t tell the brand (if this is a consideration for you), while Constance, you can see the “H” right there Roulis is definitely more understated. I also think that the flap for Roulis is slightly less finicky than the Constance because I don’t have to keep buckling/unbuckling the H flap!

I echo everyone’s comments too that C24 is bigger than a mini Roulis - I think that’s more comparable to mini Constance.

I have an iPhone Pro Max, and it doesn’t fit into a mini Roulis without bulging out from the sides. So if you’re okay with that, then it fits! (I think another person above commented on iPhone Pro)

Hope that helps and let us know what you ended up with

Does anyone know if a roulis slim wallet fits a small iPhone?
Thanks!

It does not. It barely fits credit cards. It’s very small and kind of pointless, imo.

Thanks for letting me know. I will pass on it. I guess it’s like a C short wallet then!
