I ordered the wool version because it looks beautiful!
Once I see it, I'll probably go back and order another. I really like the shape of this bag.
Nice! Which color did you choose?I ordered the wool version because it looks beautiful!

Ooh! Please post pics when you get it! I am leaning towards the green but wondering if this looks IRL like it does in the website pics.
Hands down the top one (camel combo) very under the radar but quite chic!
Does anyone have the cardholder and can share some thoughts on it? Im contemplating the lilac one, but there only being 3 slots seem rather minimalistic for me. I need at least 4 for my essentials LOL. I was obsessed with the sauge/mint mini coin purse (sadly discontinued) and regret never pulling the trigger on it. I also haven't been able to find a 2nd hand one either.. Much thanks!
Seemingly a recent quality issue but there seems to be more and more people complaining about the glazing on their bag coming off or leather pealing off. I know people who have negative experiences are often the loudest. There’s been very few mentions in this thread but seemingly recent reviews mention it Like here! Also added some reviews from people who ordered over the last few months. Really want to make an order but can’t tell if these are outliers. I would be pretty upset if my bag started peeling. Anyone have any insight?
I posted in this thread a while back. I purchased a Numero Un in 2020 and after about 3 months of use, the leather in 3 of the corners started chipping/peeling. Glue also started coming off the crossbody strap, but that can be pulled off and wasn't as big of a deal. Unfortunately Polene did absolutely nothing about it. I don't baby my bags, but I have 2 Furla's, and 1 Coccinelle, and after three times the use, none of those three bags has any signs of wear whatsoever. While I love their designs, I won't be ordering from them again, unless something changes in their quality and customer service.

I personally never give much credit to these kind of anonymous online reviews. I know that Polene has a problem with sending out bags with small defects. They absolutely should not be doing that, at least not sell them at full price to unaware customers. But I have a feeling that the issue with many reviews that go like "my bag peels after one use" is that the bag had the defect in the first place and people didn't notice it because they didn't inspect the bag super thoroughly before wearing it. I would advise to check every bag really well before taking off the tags and wearing it. The leather of my Polene bags holds up extremely well even though I constantly bump into things. Judging from this thread many seem to agree. It might be different with the smooth leather, I only have textured leather bags. But if these reviews make you really worried about the glazing coming off in a few weeks I can only advise not to buy from them, since their customer service is not particularly accommodating.
It seems like most of the complaints are on the textured leathers and I've heard people say that the textured leather bags smell like chemicals, not leather. I'm just not a fan of the textured leathers (nothing to do with the issues) but I much prefer the smooshy-ness of the pebbled leathers like my Neuf. I have no issues at all with mine-it still looks great! I just wish they'd come up with more colors in the Nuef. I would love to see that bag in the Polar color!!
