Hi, does anyone know how much more can you put in a trim II 35 vs a 31?

I stuff my 31 so it can fit quite a lot (brolly, wallet, makeup, phone, key/card holder, a6 planner) if I do not try to zip it up :sweatdrop:

Wondering if it's worth getting a 35 so that more things can fit and more comfortably or I should just save $ to get other bag styles for variety instead.

I like the look of the larger trim even if not putting more into it.

My trim 25 in Potiron Chèvre leather!!

Gorgeous! Does it have a zipper, and no gusset? How much can you fit in it, without it becoming too bulky? I have two 31's (with zipper, gusset and 2 inside pockets), and am contemplating a smaller one as church and evening purse, but of course no H boutique has one that I can try out. Thanks in advance!

Love the idea. Can you post more close up photos of the bag and how you did it. I can't wait to try it.

This is how i did it - found a belt whose leather has a similar color to my Trim’s but with a texture contrast and looped it like so... (photos below). I suppose one can have the longer end of the belt trimmed off by a leather craftsperson too if they’d like but I just didn’t have the time.

@buttonmushroom thanks for sharing the links above too - I didn’t realize that there were older models with extenders. Would’ve been great to have those
