I just got my moka and I loooooveeee it so much! It is such an amazing shade of brown! I didn’t realize it was going to be the smooth leather but I’m glad it is. Just so stunning!Hi! I also ordered the mocca in smooth leather, I love the color and the smooth leather! Here she is with my trio.

My Un nanos wanted to dress up. Silks are from Furla. Nude and lilac nanos. Nude is more pinkish in real life (this looks yellow for some reason but it’s really more pale peach maybe). I wasn’t sold on the lilac—doesn’t look very purple to me, but once I put the silk on it, I was much happier!
In addition to my moka, I got a huit micro to join my Un micro. To join in that discussion, I don’t wear my micros—they are just cute art to put on my work desk to make me happy!
Wanted to share that after using my smooth moka un nano nonstop since receiving earlier this week, I did get a small scratch and was able to buff it out COMPLETELY with my fingers. I'm actually amazed at how the scratch completely disappeared. I've always heard people saying they buff out scratches on their smooth leather but it's never actually worked for me until now!! Just in case anyone is worried about going for smooth leather, the polene one seems very resilient!
So happy to hear that! Glad the scratch went away.
Thanks for sharing this video! I enjoyed watching it.
I'm half Japanese and some titbits mentioned in the video that might be interesting for you all:
- Polène is to open a shop in Tokyo this year in Omotesando
- Bags made in Andalusia in Spain
- General comments are all bags are light (something particuarly important among Japanese customers)
- Huit is most popular among Japanese customers, particularly because it also works with kimono outfits
- They mentioned the NY shop will open in Aug / Sept
- The lady in the green cardigan is 150cm if you want a size comparison
Thank you so much for this. You are so sweet. I wanted to know what they were saying and now I do! Lol. So excited for the new shops opening, especially the NY one. Hope they start fulfilling US orders from that store so we can get them even faster.
Polene rocks. I am 100% obsessed.
Hi! I also ordered the mocca in smooth leather, I love the color and the smooth leather! Here she is with my trio.
So excited to see photos of the moka with the smooth leather. I am sooo tempted. How would you describe the shade of brown?
Wow! This is really helpful.
It’s convinced me that while the beige neuf is beautiful, it probably won’t work with my skin tone. And I probably won’t get an un mini either.
However, it makes me really tempted to get a blush neuf now though, and much more tempted to consider a lilac cyme arggggg
Congrats!
after I got the trio with the flap made of smooth leather I really wanted the whole bag to be made of this leather as it feels so divine 
If the tan ever comes in smooth leather I really couldn't resist that I think the color looks pretty true in my pictures, its like this colder tone dark chocolate brown
I think it is very unique color and is easy to wear with different outfits. Also I have to add, the un nano is perfect crossbody bag for me, the shape is so spot on!
I'm glad this helped. It helped me too.
I feel the same way about the Nano un Mini. For me, the size of it (being bigger than the Nano) and the chain strap is not a good combination as it makes the bag be very uncomfortable and heavy. I love the Un Nano. I have 2 and will probably have a few more because of how unique, easy and spacious it is.
I also agree on the beige color. I like seeing it IRL like that. It's stunning but I'm more inclined to get the camel and blush because the warmer tones match my pale skin way better.
Oh, and the Cyme in lilac is on my wishlist so we'll be bag twins.
See, this is what I love about Polene. Their refined branding and artistic storytelling makes me feel like I’m watching Game of Thrones but with stunning bags.
Their essence goes beyond the product themselves. They are not only selling bags, they’re inspiring a certain lifestyle and taste level.
They are really remarkable.
I’m so glad I found them and so happy to be a part of this community.

The moka is pretty hard to capture accurately in photos but here's my most accurate pic! I would describe it as a creamy milky chocolate brown, like a light milk chocolate. In the photos online it looked darker and maybe more red-toned. It's a beautiful color and I've found it goes with all my outfits so far, which is interesting because I typically go for black bags!
