Oh my, the Umi is just gorgeous 
Tempted to go for this in the Cognac or Clay color. I love the versatility of the strap.

And the Umi is available in the lovely Blush color!
They are similar in size. Although the Onze is a tad smaller the inside seems a bit bigger as it is not a structured bag.
I only use the Onze as an evening/going out bag though. It all depends what you like/need the bag for. I tend to use my nano all the time when running errands.
I am debating the same color choices, cognac or clay. Does anyone know how clay compares to taupe?Oh my, the Umi is just gorgeous

I was just on their website and noticed the same. I paid 220 Euro for my Nano in grained leather. Now its 260 Euro.
They also changed the names of the bags over number 10. Onze (11) is now "Beri"
A lot of designer brands increase prices but Polene is known for more affordable prices so I don't know if this was a smart move.
Sorry, I don't.
I'm actually really loving this style in the burgundy color...
But will wait 'til after Thanksgiving to see if they offer free shipping again this year.
I have been dreaming of a Nano in the lovely full grain textured calf leather for years.
I know we are not alone in preferring this pebbled leather to the criss-cross, saffiano-like leather.
I wonder - has anyone told Polene? Are they aware that we want Nano in this leather?
Wouldn't it be great if we could write to them and tell them that, say, 43 ladies on Purse Forum wish to order Nanos in full grain textured calf leather....
I just noticed the price increase tonight...just as I was about to buy it! WTH, the Nano went from $260 to $320?!
UMI looks great and the price isn't bad either. Thanks! Regarding the color, I will wait until I see the bags in the store itself before deciding. I find that the colors in their photos don't always match up to the reality. Also noticed that only with the Bordeaux color photo spread do you get a look at the bag's inside.

Oh wow that was fast! I feel like the onze and douze only just came out.
This new bag definitely fits nicely into their aesthetic. The slight-hobo / curved-shoulder-bag is about my least favorite bag style so it will probably be a pass for me.
But +1 to the as-yet nonexistent virtual petition for them to make Nanos in the full grain leather! I love the Nano and would own many of it but so far only in the smooth because I do not care for the saffiano-style leather. I have the Douze (now the Cyme) in the saffiano and love the bag but one in that leather is probably enough.
I love it! Personally I prefer the simpler bag styles that Polène releases, like the Dix and Umi. While the folds on the Onze/Béri and Douze/Cyme certainly make the bag unique, I just prefer a clean fuss-free aesthetic. Love that the Umi can be adjusted between shoulder and crossbody length like the Dix. IMO the Umi looks better as a crossbody than the Dix.
