Recently purchased the numero uno in monochrome grey. Does anyone have experience with the monochrome grey not being grey, More beige than grey.
Was disappointed when I opened and compared it to other grey bags.


Purse in second picture is grey next to numero uno

I have it and I also don't think it is grey! I think it is a greige. I knew that buying it and love the color so not a problem for me but you wouldn't really know from the website. I find that it is kinda hard to tell from their pictures the color.

I now am interested in their new Neuf color Beige but because it is new there is not yet pictures or video. So I am unsure of buying it as I wan't it to be different enough of the Grey Uno.

Agree with you on that one and also agree about the greige. The navy croc I bought from their website was almost indistinguishable from black; it looked much more blue on the website. I was disappointed at first but am growing used to it. And the Numero Un remains my favorite from their selection.

I keep hoping they will make a slightly larger (maybe 25%) version of the Six. It would then be similar in size to the Moynat Madeleine (the clutch style with wrist strap) and could hold larger mobile phones. Plus my sunglasses case. Right now, my iPhone X is about the largest phone that fits in it and still allows the bag to fully close.

We have 10 days in Paris booked for November; hoping Covid doesn't force a cancellation and I can go see the bags in person!

Yea. I was not expecting that. Wish they had a disclaimer or different pictures. The lighting in their picture makes it look more grey.

Thank you for the info

I hope Polène releases more colours of the Dix!

Polene Huit Mini arrived today! It's the perfect everyday bag.

... however I'm not sure I am happy with the finishing stitches on one of the sides.
You can see it better on the third image. It's not 100% aligned ... Is this normal on all the other Huit bags?
I love attention to details... and have read in reviews Polene pay careful attention to fine details etc...

I would greatly appreciate if somebody could double check their Huit bags for me

I have the huit mini in fresh almond and the huit in cognac, and it’s true that at the back, the bags are “finished” that way, with the stitching showing - on the inside of the bag there is an extra Piece of leather. I think it’s part of the design, and not a stitching problem. To be honest, I didn’t notice it until you pointed it out.
i think huit Is a beautiful bag and very nice to use. Congrats on your new bag!

Thank you soooo much for the quick reply and for the photos !
I'm a designer .. I tend to notice little details sometimes ... they stick out like a sore thumb hehe..

I can now rest my case and move on with my life

I just pulled mine out to check - it's not fully aligned to the other petal piece, but it is straight (as in there's an equal distance between the other petal piece and the stitches)! So that's okay with me. I think it'd be difficult to construct and sew the petals without having the extra piece of leather attached, or it'd cut into the interior space and wouldn't look as uniform.

Same!

And I hope they are actual colours rathe than other shades of brown, black and white!

I wrote to polene‘s customer service, and they said: “We are sorry, but we do unfortunately not plan on releasing our Number Ten and Number Ten Hobo in new colors for the moment.”

a pity. I’m personally not so fond of the textured leather used on dix and nano.

Has anyone purchased the Numero sept belt bag? I cannot find any reviews or videos to see if it’s any good.

Hi everyone!
I have made a decision to purchase number onze. Is there anyone with both chalk and taupe color Polene bags? Which color do you reach out more and get most use out of? Can't decide between the two colors, I love the taupe but I feel like chalk will be more versatile also going well with warmer colors.
