Need some advice. I bought a neuf mini from Polène website in Feb 2024. Yesterday I noticed an issue on the hardware of the strap loop. The engraving of Polène does not have the accent (dash on top of the first E) although the other hardware on the bag including the stamp have the accent.
I checked my Un nano and Mokki and the engraving is fine. I am now worried about authenticity but I got it directly from Polène. Anyone else notice this on their neuf mini?

There is a new youtube review of the Nodde Hobo in root.

Up close I like the colour but the contrast stitching is very minimal on this bag. I am considering getting the Nodde OG in root but now I am unsure. The cognac has more depth and contrast. Initially I tought the cognac is too orangy and I was so excited for the root colour but maybe it does not work as well in the smooth leather.

I'm having the exact same color dilemma as you! I have the dix in cognac & love the contrast stitching so when I saw these new colors I knew I had to get one. I think I am leaning towards Stone, just to have something different (& like that its not as popular), but I cannot deny the versatility of a beautiful brown. Honestly can't go wrong with either beautiful choices! I hope you let us know what you decide. I'll try to find videos of the Stone for comparing

If it helps, I think a nice medium gray is SUPER versatile, possibly the most versatile neutral after a medium brown. And it does look like Stone is a an excellent ‘straight’ gray.

I will probably cave and get the Dix in Stone. I’d been planning to get the basic brown, but I’d like to swap out the gray bag I have for something else and I find my current (Chalk) Dix so incredibly versatile. Only thing holding me back ironically is that they did the new Dix colors in smooth leather instead of the textures and while it looks more luxe that way, the other thing I do love about my Dix is that I don’t worry about it in any kind of weather. And I wouldn’t feel that way with the smooth leather.

I think the contrast stitching on the root still shows up and provides that depth :-) But obv both are great choices and you should get what makes your heart sing and doesn’t feel like a compromise.

Polene is killing me. I’m on a bit of a ban until spring or at least the new year…
I have not bought anything for the past 2 years. I wanted the Nodde as soon as it came out but was not sure with the colours. Now that they have released so many new colours and will probably have a price increase I am thinking about getting two 😅

I am 99 percent sure there will be a heavy price increase in January since LVMH have invested. I guess I am also not the only one who thinks that and this is the reason why so many bags have sold out so quickly.

Oh absolutely, I have no doubt about that. I just hope they warn their customers in advance unlike the last time. I’ve been a buying one bag a year for the last 3 years, hope to be able to continue to do so 😄
