are both sides of the MM reverse??
@EmmJay, this is what I meant when a little back I said it's the opposite of the GM (I was going off the bottom photo). The new photo with the reverse side on the left is how the GM is.

The sides of the MM are exactly like the GM. If you check out pavel_lv_ on Instagram he has a video of both the MM and GM.
thanks -- just checked it out!
I guess the bottom/modeling photo I posted wasn't a final design, huh
This bag is not out yet in the US and I am already totally in love with it.
Hi guys.
I also would like to join the club. So excited! Mine is MIF that makes it even sweater
.
I've been looking for perfect bag for conferences and travel and looked at so many bags but nothing was appealing to me.
Now when I read about new MM side I got very confused and was almost at the point to return my bag.
Well, I am 5"4 and bag is big on me. Obviously it is a big bag, I knew it when I bought it. I love small bags but I travel a lot. If my trip is mostly hiking and visiting quiet remote locations I will take backpack and a small bag/WOC just to use when I am in the metropolitan or fanciesh area. If I do not want to bring a backpack then the choice for the travel bag is tough for me. With OTG tote it might be so much convenient.
I tried to figure out if MM size will be better for me however I have to had my MacBook with me. it is 13" in length and fits nicely by the wall (not loose at all) and the length of current tote is 16.5". However I do not think that my laptop will fit into MM size as the length of it 13.5" and due to folded inside sides this will shrink every more so-so much.
Did anybody give it a though? Using laptop with with bag?
I would like to continue to be excited about OTG tote. I understand why I bought it and what purpose it will serve. I think that I will use it 5-6 time a year for "big travels" and maybe more for "short travels" or even sometimes take it to work when I want to go somewhere, meet friends, shopping.
TIA guys for any suggestions.

Hard choice isn’t it? I’m betting the Air might fit in the medium, esp if you can arrange it to go “catty corner”, in other words not against the side of the bag. If it really is .5” less than the MM I might fit normally, especially if you don’t carry it in a case that makes it longer. My GM arrives tomorrow and I can’t wait, but at 5’8” I think the bag will look proportional on me. And it would be a perfect bag for conferences and travel - I’m hoping to use it that way as well as a daily tote for work. Good luck with your decision!Hi guys.

This is a comparison of the GM OTG to the MM and GM NF. The MM OTG is approximately the same size of the MM NF. Hope this pics help you @Bosslady2000.
Thank you guys!! Your feedback is very appreciated. I just would like to be happy with the bag and also it has to serve it’s purpose. I think that when we spend our time, money and emotions getting the bag it has to make us happy.
A couple of things;
I do not own NF. I enjoy looking at it on other ppl . I feel that it is too expensive for what it offers.
My MacBook is in the cutest lilac case ( I get so many complements all the time ). I’m kind of sloppy and this case protected my laptop so many times, so I plan to keep it on and it is thin enough.
Also, if any of you lady can tell how 13” laptop fits in MM size. I think that if you put it “catty corner “ it can change the shape of the bag. I had this issue when I tried to use a big smaller size laptop in my Prada bag.
Again, it you put in 13” laptop against the wall - it stays very nicely and do not fall or lean and there only minimal space between laptop and the edges, maybe 10 mm from each side- that is why I figured out that it won’t fit nice in MM size.
Sorry for the long post, maybe somebody will find it useful and/or share other thoughts.

I received my OTG GM today. I almost fainted at the box sizes before I opened! I love the bag, it’s gorgeous, my NF organizer will fit, but somehow it feels heavier and different than I expected. I’m disappointed, as I truly love the bag and how it looks, and it fits my body and my things well. I’m going to sit a few days and carry it around the house and not use in case I return. Perhaps it being so structured as a large tote feels quite different from NF. Can’t put my finger on it.
Did it take others here a bit to get used to it? It really isn’t much wider than the NFmm but it is inches taller. Hmm. Here’s the box photo for fun the outer box was 29” by 26”. And the inner was 23” wide, still much larger than the bag. It looked like a piece of luggage was delivered!
Pondering
Not exactly a life changing decision. But I vowed a few years ago I must love everything I purchase, or I return. So we shall see. It really is gorgeous.

I love the look of it but honestly I don’t love to carry it. It’s like my artsy, I love it but it’s just not comfortable to carry. I think it’s because I’m my opinion the bottom sticks so far out from my body that I tend to bump into things or people with the bag and they’re quite heavy.I received my OTG GM today.

I love, love, love mine!! I mostly hand carry mine and don’t have the issues that @Melfontana described. I’m also taller than the average so that might be why. LolI received my OTG GM today.
