Hi,
I have both bags and wouldn‘t want to miss one of them.
Both are weather proof, both have this lovely microfibre lining (
I am a sucker for this interior!) and both have black leather that practically makes it go with everything.
I use the Noe for weekend trips and other short travels. Its great to wear on the shoulder and crossbody (I am 170cm) and it works well. I don’t mind the wide bottom (I also have a classic Noe- I just like bucket bags).
I use the Metis as everyday bag for essentials (wallet, catch-all, keys, tissues etc) I haven‘t used it for travel but assume its too small unless you have an additional bigger bag. I replaced my Neverfull MM with the neo noe. Don’t regret it at all. Because it always bothered me not being able to use the Neverfull as easy bag at a destination ... too big bulky for a city trip etc..
They both look great and I like them! I‘ll attach some pics! It depends on what you are looking for! Neo Noe is good for carrying a little more and can be transformed from shoulder to crossbody (yes it is not a perfect crossbody-only bag!) and Metis is just the Metis we all love
Oh and another thing they share: both have potential glazing issues!
Good luck with the decision!
ps: sorry for the quality of the mod shot- I just noticed that after uploading...
