Gosh I wish that "news" about Moynat didn't make me just p***d off. I randomly noticed this via 24s special event page. Sadly it seems like one cannot buy these unless in person at LBM. Oh well at least they still seem to be doing charms (although it's unclear if these are just painted).

It does look painted to me too, but I really like that dice one regardless. IDK if I'd actually buy it though. It's really cute and I like it, but also I don't think bag charms are usually great value for money.

I finally got my first Moynat bags after a bit of a delay! I am blown away by the quality and craftsmanship of both.
I got a black & tourterelle Josephine and a black Gabrielle Reporter. Tourterelle is a chameleon as everyone else said. The Gabrielle Reporter will be more in use while I'm still working from home, but Josephine will be more in use once we return to the office.

I love both! :heart:

Hello! I am went in Moynat today to have a look and fell in love with the Gaby BB im taupe, I think I am about to buy my very first Moynat.

Does anyone know where I can get a Gaby BB bag insert? TIA
 
Does anyone here have the Limo MM? The soft-sided duffel looking bag. If so, what's the shoulder drop like?

My coated canvas tote is out of commission and I'm considering replacing it with either the Oh! Tote or the Limo MM. I know the Limo is quite different in looks, but I think functionally it can serve the same purpose my coated canvas tote did. (Also, I still have my Quattro MM so another tote might not be necessary at all?)

Hello @konacoffee, I do have a Limo MM in taupe. The shoulder strap drop is about 7.5 inches. I usually carry it by hand. I did try to put it on my shoulder, but it felt very tight under the arm. In my humble opinion, since the should straps are not long like tote bag’s, wearing the limo mm on the shoulder may not be most comfortable. Hope this helps!

That helps a lot. Thank you for the info!

I really love the shape of the Limo, but I really wish the straps were longer. It reminds me of those Japanese school bags. (like so)

I was first drawn to Moynat by the limo. Love the shape and the curved top design (oh how I missed Ramesh’s creativity)…. But if you are thinking of replace a tote bag, the limo may not be the most suitable alternative.

Yeah, I'm seeing that now. I do have another tote, so I was thinking I didn't need a strict "tote replacement", but functionally (as in the things I carry and where to), the Limo could've worked had the straps been longer.

I actually like the new Voyage bag, but otherwise the new designs just aren't doing much for me. :(
 
Recently saw a Zinc Danse on a resale for a good price - I think someone was looking for one not long ago, HTH :flowers:. Though never ordered from this particular site myself.

I'm with you on this one. I really admire the elegant simplicity of the Limo, but I need either a crossbody (preferred) or a comfortable shoulder carry option. I wish they introduced the d-rings on the MM size as suggested earlier by Sourisbrune. Good luck on your search for the next tote! I saw on your earlier post you had a quattro MM? How are you liking it? I am thinkng to get a TPM (but probably would need to pace myself a bit. Moynat Ramesh FOMO is real!).

Thanks!
