Hello, @narockshard
No need to worry about those weird little "threads" next to the edge paint on your straps, just pull the loose "threads" off, you will do no harm. I have encountered this with bags from different brands. I was initially concerned but discovered that whatever part of the production process these threads are a result of, they do no harm when stuck or loose.

Concerning the rubbed off surface on the corners of your bag: This will happen to ALL "sharp" leather corners unless one is always very careful. So I am sorry but it is sort of your own fault, even though you never intended it to happen ...

Please do not get me wrong, I am not blaming you or criticising you. The vulnerability of leather on structured bags is the exact reason why I, for daily use, choose soft bags with rounded corners. And why I use Fenice leather protector on my bags. Alternatively, one can choose leathers with a plastic coating.

Here are the pictures.

this looks like normal wear and tear to me. This happens to any leather bag that I use with sharper corners.

Since this thread (and some of the treads dedicated to specific styles) are getting more posts I thought it would be nice for us to have a place to share our lovely Polene bags when we wear them. With enough threads and activity we might get our own sub-forum!

Before last year it was only from Black Friday thru Christmas, but last year they started it early. So probably fall sometime.

Agreed, I do think it was twice last year, but both time were in the fall / winter.

This was a two part purchase, and I’ll start with the mini Neuf.

This is, simply put, an instant success. The pebbled leather is soft and feels amazing, the handle is comfortable, and the shape is so curvy and adorable. I love it! Also pleased that putting my phone and other SLGs in and out is easy and not tight at all.

And as a bonus, the hardware is a good match with an add-on Etsy chain I got recently, so I can dress it up. I’m wearing it like this today.

Hi all!!!

When Polene came out with the mini Neuf, I knew that it was calling out to me.

The original Neuf is my favourite bag in my collection but I’ve always wished for it to be in a smaller size. I would love to believe Polene heard my thoughts (xD) but they actually came through!!!!

Since I’ve purchased it in the same colourway (taupe), I figured these pictures will show a really good comparison in the size. I’ve also included mod shots (I’m 5”1, 100lbs for reference) as well! You can see the size difference between the original and small Neuf on me.

In terms of capacity, I can fit the following items comfortably: Phone, wallet, keys, umbrella, hand sanitiser, tissue, AirPods, lipstick. The original Neuf could fit all these along with my water bottle + iPad/ Kindle (which made it a really good work bag!).

Overall, I’m mega pleased with the decision to downsize (have already sold away the original one) because I can finally wear this crossbody as well~~ I absolutely love it!

I've been making fun of these micro bags made by other designers but when I saw the micro nano... I took a 180 and now I'm obsessssssedddddd. Ordered one in Taupe They should really make more colors!

Hi all. Just received my Dix and Mini Neuf — both in caramel! I love the Dix, bur find the Neuf in caramel a bit too dark to my liking so thinking of selling it or exchanging it for other colors. I live and got my bag delivered in the US, does anyone know if Polene offers return/exchange? Or if I need to sell it here in the US, which consignment website can I do that? Thanks so much!

ooh thanks for sharing the photos. I was pretty set on the Camel neuf mini but it does look darker than the Dix in the same shade. Now back to square one haha.
