Green is my favorite color too. I just got my first Polene bag and was trying to wait on a 2nd. But, I’d hate to miss out…:sad:
@athousandmhiles24 just ordered one. If green is your favourite color and you've had positive experience with Polene, I do think you will be happy with this one too. Join us! The more the merrier! :graucho:
@WillWordForBags Have you ordered yet? :giggle:
 
ahh so tempting! I was thinking about grabbing the dix in black, but that emerald green is stunning!! Which color would you go for? also, for those of you who own the dix, what is your overall review of the bag?

I bought the Dix in black, and loved it enough to also buy it in burgundy. IF they bring it out in another color I love, I'll happily get another. It's really versatile - polished enough for work, but informal enough to wear for lunch and shopping with friends. Very high quality craftsmanship and leather.

Green is one of my favorite colors too! I’m just waiting to see the photos of those who already ordered to confirm it is indeed that tone of emerald and rich green shown in the photos and not a much darker green, as sometimes can happen with Polene color variations.
Although now with everyone expecting it to be sold out soon, I’m thinking I might miss it altogether so I better hurry.
Gotta decide quickly.

And I had already decided to get another Neuf Mini (or maybe a Tonca) because I need another everyday bag and I don’t think the Dix would be that for me, although I might be wrong.

My beloved Huit Mini in fresh was such an obsession for me but it’s been sitting in my closet since I bought it. Have only worn it once.
I still love it but it’s not a bag that goes with everything so it’s an indulgent piece for sure.
I think I would use the green Dix way more than this one, though. :shocked::confused1: And I’m not even supposed to be getting any new bags at all because I have gone a bit crazy lately.:angel:

I think the members who ordered theirs should hopefully receive theirs within a week so you should try waiting especially since I agree there’s a high chance the green IRL may be different from website photos. Give your other equally gorgeous bags some love in the meantime while waiting! :biggrin: :flowers:
 
I'll be sure to post when I receive mine, so that you can ascertain whether it is the green you prefer. It's yet to be shipped as of now.

I initially wanted to order the Tonca too but wanted a bag that can function as a shoulder bag with a shorter strap drop. Had my eye on Dix but cannot decide on the color. Fingers crossed that this green is the one I'm holding out for.

Hey everyone!
I got my Numero Un about 1.5 years ago and did only wear it occassionally since then…
As lots of quality issues about Polène bags are discussed in web nowadays I inspected my bag in detail today (silly I know….)
I found two spots where the stitching is, it seems the leather cracked a bit cause of the thread. I dont mind about these minor flaws (as long as no thread is coming apart) and it looks way worse on the pics than IRL, so it‘s ok on a 350 Euro bag. My question is just, may it get worse with time and use? Anyone experienced this or has some know how on leathercraft?
I did use a leather conditioner now, but I dont want to experiment with DIY leather repair sets….
TIA :flowers:

Thank you! I can't wait to see what the color looks like IRL. I have a feeling it might be the perfect green. :biggrin:
 
Questions for everyone:

1. What do y'all think are the most popular Polene bag designs?
2. What is your favorite Polene bag?
The most popular must be Number One. It has the most colors available, and I think brands generally have the greatest color varieties in their most popular designs.

My favorite is Neuf, but none of the colors really call to me except blush. Not even this new green. I know it's not available in Neuf, just saying that even the latest color, if introduced in Neuf, still doesn't do much for me. It's more a forest green rather than a brighter emerald green. I would make blush my color of choice, but it feels more warm weather season and in terms of balance, I have too many warm weather bags. I wish they would release the Neuf in Heather. I love mauve.

This would be a great color for the Neuf!
