When I stared closely it looked like she’d looped the strap around above the opening somehow, but wouldn’t this affect the bag opening actually?

I did a screenshot of the video. It seems that the strap went through the loop holder at the side but that loop holder should be narrow to only let the strap go through once? It also looked like there is something white at the side (not sure whether that is the Polene tag).
Dune irl does not look like the Dune patch online. It does look really close to the Nude color. I've become really frustrated with Polene not showing their colors accurately online.
Dune to my eye looks like it has a pink undertone whereas the Nude looks softer in hue..
Perhaps contacting Polene might give you some clarity in color & also the dyes take different
with every skin order some variations are to be expected.
I know it’s only small but it’s still not a cheap bag and it’s on the front and it really bugs me! The straps are so thin I doubt it would be that? Just disgusted with their reply which is such a shame as I love their bags! It’s hard because in the photo it doesn’t look that bad but in real life it’s so noticeable!

I tried contacting them weeks ago. No response.
Ugh same exact dilemma with the Romy. I’ve seen a tip floating around to run wax paper over both sides of the zipper to improve it. I’m leaning toward ordering the Umi and trying that out.
Very helpful. Thanks. What shade is your bag?In case you're interested...
Here's a little wimb for my Numero Un Nano. I always leave the snaps open, except for storing the bag. Very happy with this little darling

Hey all, I just received the Umi in Clay but upon closer inspection the leather seemed to be damaged on one side, but the other side looks completely fine so want to double check with the Umi owners to see whether it's a common issue?
I do not own an umi, but that is definitely something I would email about to inquire about an exchange or return. That is unacceptable...
That is clearly a flaw. You should insist on a return & nothing short of that, IMO
It's totally unacceptable
Agree!
Please keep us updated. I believe there was a PF member who had a similar issue with her neuf mini and was able to exchange the bag without much fuss if I recall correctly.
However, Polene really should improve their QC checks before shipping out their bags! I almost feel like sending them an email to tell them so, if not they are turning away so many potential customers who would rather pay for more expensive bags with better QC.
