I was thinking the same thing. That these seem to have sold out so quickly. Hopefully they’ll restock soon cause I was loving the taupe and cognac.Polene might have only created a limited number of stock just to test product demand before committing more resources, but this is a very clear and positive answer!
I have read somewhere this is part of their conciouse strategy. They only produce small batches per design and color. Having too many bags in the warehouse is also costly. Preordering helps them to determine how many bags they have to produce for the next batch.Polene might have only created a limited number of stock just to test product demand before committing more resources, but this is a very clear and positive answer!
I originally wanted to get camel color because it looked so good on other people, and I kept seeing recommendations online about how brown is a good basic color for a handbag. But I'm not a fan of this color. My favorite color is taupe now for handbags. It gives that light color freshness for spring/summer, but is also cool toned enough for winter. It's a neutral that is not black color.
Absolutely. I think if they have been able to deliver their amazing quality at those prices all this time, then we know they can keep doing that instead of climbing to a different price bracket just because they're selling more.
That would defeat the purpose for me a bit because I think Polene's popularity is precisely due to the fact that these bags are so well priced but can still compete with major designer brands in terms of design and quality.
Part of their whole brand positioning is "conscious luxury," meaning that they are proving that luxurious products can be made and bought without them costing an arm and a leg.

Yay for taupe! It’s my favorite neutral. Still haven’t figure out which Polene bag in taupe to get, but it looks lovely. Problem is I have 3 taupe bags so buying another seems excessive. What I really need is a bag in their beige, but the beige Neuf just sold out so I waited TOO LONG. AGAIN.
Agreed. I love them but part of the appeal is definitely the excellent prices. Tbh, once they start climbing over $600, I may be done.
Yep, was thinking the same thing, that they created a limited set to see how it sells. It’s a smart approach. I really wish they would start doing what you said upthread - let you order any bag in any of their current or past colors. Even if it was like a 6 month wait, I would do it for some combos. They had a coral color Un Nano that I still regret not getting.
Yeah, me too. The biggest appeal is the amazing price for sure.Yay for taupe! It’s my favorite neutral. Still haven’t figure out which Polene bag in taupe to get, but it looks lovely.

Love it. Show us photos when you get it. So looking forward to seeing this color.My Dune Neuf-Mini has left Spain!
One reason I got it instead of waiting is 'The Kate Effect'. Figured Polene would start selling like crazy, and Dune isn't one of their standard colors.
@poleneinblack It's not just having one really active Thread, but a bunch of Threads that justify a Sub-Forum. It's why I created the 'What Polene are you wearing today?' Thread.
Wow what a beauty. Congrats on your new bag.My Cyme canvas in beige arrived! It's beautiful. I notice it has a faint cigarette smell on the leather, hopefully once I air it out some, it will go away. It's my first Polene and I am very happy with it. I can't wait to wear it out.
The strap is super comfortable and the bag is so big and roomy. I just wish it had interior pockets. Oh well, time to find a purse insert.

This is my new favourite Polene shape! It looks so nice with the folds on the side. I hope they produce a slightly smaller version soon; I would snap it up quickly!My Cyme canvas in beige arrived!
