Another variation is below—this one had more chain, but was overall kind of short on me I thought.

These are beautiful!! I bought a longer strap from mautto based on your experiences with them, but for the past several months I've been stymied by indecision on the color: black, grey, or burgundy. And other bags have been calling my name too, but your pictures have reminded me how beautiful the numero un mini is!

Someone asked awhile ago about the new Le Cabas line-up? My tote in cognac arrived last night, very good quality (went through all the stitching this morning) and I was happily surprised with how light it is!

Ordered mine on Sept 24th and expected to get it around mid-october, my automatic order confirmation still said it would be shipped on the 25th. When I asked Polene about this after a few days they refunded my shipping costs and gave me an exact shipping date, all within an hour of my message

I love the look of the squatty Numero Neuf, although the strap seems a little thin to be comfortable. The only thing that gives me pause is the handle might be in the way when open. I hope someone will get one and review it. Your tote is nice! Enjoy it.

Beautiful! Can you show how the sides can be tucked in? Are there buttons or do you have to use those ties? Thanks!

You need to use the ties, not actually sure if I'm doing it correctly since there's no instructions.. But crossed the ties over to the other side and secured them on a small button. The ties have two different settings, and you only need the top one when securing the tie to it's own side when completely open, so made sense to me to use the lower one for crossing it like that! Probably gonna mold to shape better when I start using it.

Thanks for sharing because I’ve been interested in this as well! Could you share a pic of what it looks like inside with the ties secured to the opposite side? Love this color too.

How's the wear and tear and ease of use on the Polene mini backpack? I think it can be a palm springs mini replacement.
I have been wearing it as a daily backpack, and I have no wear to report. My main concern was the side threads at the main closure, but so far so good.
Quite carefree, with minimal fuss, easy to open and close. It looks great with both front buttons clasped or unclasped. Being unclasped is easier to get into. I am greatly enjoying this beautiful bag.

Looks like @Amazona has solved your puzzle / problem on the thread you started :smartass:
 
Gorgeous!!! How much can it fit? Water bottle, etc?
I’m able to fit my keys, two SLGs, thin sunglasses pouch, card case and change purse.
I have trouble closing the bag with all that and a 9oz S’well bottle, due to its height, even with all buttons unclasped. Perhaps a shorter bottle will fit better, I don’t have one to test. It will fit horizontally in the bottom, but I see the top peeking from the side, so for me, I would carry a bottle aside.
