Thanks, Prada Prince! Actually, your post here was the one that influenced me to get the 35mm rather than another Daily Battle. Question though, is yours made in Italy and does the zipper hit the Faure tag inside as you open and close your bag? :smile1:

Yes, mine is made in Italy. Is yours not? I haven't noticed it hitting the Faure tag though, but I guess since it's stitched at the top, it probably does, but it hasn't caused any snagging action or anything of the sort. Still a smooth zippered action.

Yup! Mine is from Italy too. I love the bag except I am kinda miffed about the occasional snagging because it wears out the tag a little bit. Other than that, I love the size, the resiliency of the canvas and the overall look of it. It's so different from my other Speedy type bags. :graucho:

I opened this thread just out of curiosity and am so glad I did! I saw someone in Chicago a few months ago carrying the Daily Battle tote (I did not know its name at the time) and have been obsessed about it ever since. I have looked everywhere on this forum and everywhere online but have had no luck until today. I am so thrilled! Thanks to everyone who posted pictures and information. Sent them an email inquiry and will hopefully have my first FLP bag soon!

Oh yay! Oh how I love mine. I get sooo many compliments, a lot more than any other bag that I own.

I was in Paris over the weekend, and finally took the plunge and acquired a Faure Le Page piece at the Rue Cambon store.

Having had my heart set on getting one of the pochettes for my iPad Mini, I was gutted to find out that the smallest size pochette couldn't fit the Mini, and the next size up was simply too big for it.

Previously, I had considered getting myself the gun pouch out of the sheer novelty of it, but after mulling it over, and pawing the pouch, I decided against it, since I couldn't, for the life of me, think about when or what I would use the pouch for.

Having said that, I did fall in love with the bags, and I ended up walking out of the store with a gorge Le 35 MM bag, in Gris Acier. I've always wanted a small duffel bag, with a shoulder strap, but debated about finding the right one, and once I found the Faure Le Page version, I certainly didn't look back. I considered the Daily Battle, but I just found the bucket silhouette of the tote too feminine for my tastes. I also preferred a more sturdy bag in comparison to a tote... It currently retails for €690.

I hemmed and hawed and debated between the Gris Acier and the Bleu Paris, but ended up going with my gut, and with my first initial choice, the Gris Acier. There's just a certain je ne sais quoi about it, especially when combined with the scale motif, to give it that armour vibe...

The sales assistants were very helpful as well. The Le 35 MM comes with a thin and thick shoulder strap, but she didn't have the thick one in stock, and promised to ship it over to my address in London free of charge once they receive the stock. Also, had I decided to stay in Paris for about a week, I would have been able to have the bag hot-stamped with my initials, but unfortunately, my schedule just didn't permit it.

Without further adieu, please find below, my new Le 35 MM, in Gris Acier. Apologies for the flash, it was just too dark last night to get a decent pic...

What size would this bag be equivalent to the Keepall sizes? the 45 cm? Smaller?
Might be interested in ordering...but I am nervous how payment would be processed from the US without any psychical way to pay without being in a store or no online store ...:push:

Really wish they could have a couple of retail presences in the US and put information on their Website!!! :sad:

I'm not particularly sure how this compares to a keepall. I'm assuming from the name of the bag that it's around 35 cm.

I asked about the 35MM and based on the measurements they gave me (35 x 20 x 20) it is closest to a speedy 35. I hope this helps!

My Carry On tote just arrived at my door. I am beyond thrilled with both the bag and this company! I sent my first email inquiry on Thursday, placed my order on Friday and it arrived today. Unbelievable!

I was trying to decide among the Carry On, the Daily Battle and the 35 MM. I generally prefer bags that have both a short hand strap and a long shoulder/crossbow strap, and I really don't carry too much on a daily basis. As it turns out the Carry On is really the perfect size for me. It has almost exactly the same dimensions as a small Longchamp Le Plaige Neo, only the material gives it a bit more structure so it gives the impression of being a bit bigger.

The black interior lining has a bit of a felt-like texture which I actually like. And I really like how there is a larger slip pocket behind the single interior zip pocket.

I was worried about how the canvas would feel and I am pleasantly surprised. The leather is pebbled, which I am really partial to, and the canvas feels substantial. It is not cheap-looking. Stitching is nice and even.

My bag came with the thin shoulder strap (vs the thick one) which is leather on one side and printed canvas on the reverse. It looks like a really solid/sturdy strap.

First impression out of the box - this bag is perfect for me! I am so happy with it. I have to say this is one bag I don't think I would have found without TPF.

I took a few pictures to share. It's really cloudy outside and the only room with decent light was the kids' little home library so apologies in advance. ImageUploadedByPurseForum1418059485.987099.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1418059498.277739.jpgImageUploadedByPurseForum1418059509.906736.jpg
