I know everyone is loving it but I will be returning my Neuf Mini.
I don't even carry that much in my opinion but it does not even hold my essentials.
Wallet, iPhone 11, Key pouch, Sanitizers, Tissue, Airpods and it's fully packed already.
Also I can not get pass how difficult it is to put things in and out of the tiny opening, it is too much of a hassle.

What is everyone's experience with returning to Polene?

Wow. It won't even close with just those things? I thought this bag held more. I'm sorry it didn't work out for you.
I sent my first return this week so I'm currently waiting for it to be received by Polene. I will share the time frame and details once I get the refund.
 
help me choose.. numero neuf mini in chalk or black?
or camel..(but i already have loewe puzzle in small tan)
I think both colors are a must-have. But if you had to choose one, I'd go with the Chalk.
Black is an easy color to find and the tone is the same. Chalk, on the other hand, is a unique, greyish-taupish white that looks classy and goes with everything. I haven't seen it elsewhere except for YSL's vintage white (Crema Soft), but at 5 times the price.

Thank for sharing! That’s good to know. I probably carry about half of what you do when on quick errands / meals out but good to know that for longer trips this might be a bit of a tight fit!

All the best of luck with the return process!
 
I wish the Polene neuf came up as a dupe for the Hermes Birkin and Kelly bag. While the Neuf looks different, it functions the same way with its top handle, satchel slash tote shape. Personally, the shape is also more interesting imo. There are lots of boxy, structured bags that function the same way, why not mix it up? Capacity is amazing for the comparable sizes.

I beg to differ. I’d rather Polene not remind me of anything else but maintain their originality in design. It’s much more refreshing that way and is why I’m drawn to the brand in the first place when seeing the Neuf.

(and also why I am not very keen on the Sept since there seems to be a lot of dupes for that design on the market)

I second this! I find is so refreshing that they have their own unique designs. Many young brands / lesser known brands try to only copy the big names and I find that so boring.

Thank you for the photos and hope the return process is super fast and smooth for you! Have not tried returning anything to Polene myself.
If your return is successful, actually maybe you may want to consider the full sized neuf? It really isn’t that big though if you prefer crossbody then the width of the base is rather obvious when worn that way.

(I have the black full size neuf and it holds everything I need for sure, and I will continue to resist getting the mini for the same reason that you’re returning.)
 
A leather/wicker basket just showed up under "New in". Just sayin'. :angel:

I love that I can depend on this thread to tell me immediately when Polene has something new!

Again I feel like they did a great job taking a popular style and putting their spin on it. Like the Tonca, this one is not my preference but it is interesting for sure.
