Just jumped on the Numero Deux in croc. I’ve been checking obsessively if it or the royal blue would be back in stock. The email notification for back in stock didn’t work btw.
Yes I've learned that the email notification has never worked unfortunately. I wanted the smooth black leather Numero Un but it's been out of stock forever, I finally emailed them and they said they weren't bringing it back... even though it still shows on their website? I think you were smart to jump on purchasing the Deux, it's been out of stock forever and just recently came back! I've learned with Polene that if I like something, I should buy it sooner rather than later as items rarely come back or if they do sell out quickly. Post some photos of your Deux when you get it!

I will post pics when I get it! FYI, the Deux in smooth leather is available according to the website.....:graucho:
 
Thanks to everyone being so helpful on this thread! I just purchased the Polène Numéro Un in the Trio Green Croc. I plan to use this as an everyday bag (I commute to work from Connecticut --> NYC), and I think the size will be OK for my needs. I was really torn between the green and the burgundy croc, but ultimately went for the green since I think the colorway may be better for year-round use. I'll post again once I receive it!
 
maybe a stupid question. Are Polene bags ever on sale/promo? Black Friday is obviously a deeply American concept, but I noticed that quite a few European brands have a discount anyway to get that sweet American customer money :biggrin:.
I have been following Polene since January and haven’t seen any sort of sale (though I did miss the holiday season). I honestly don’t think they do any type of sale though as I’ve looked back on early IG posts and they’ve never once mentioned promotion of any type. Additionally, they don’t seem to gift bags to IG influencers (like Senreve, such a turnoff) so it appears they have a different marketing strategy which I’m a big fan of as the brand is more under the radar and let’s the quality speak for itself. The price of the bags for what you get (design, materials, functionality) is more than worth what they charge. I honestly would pay double but shhhh don’t tell Polene that :).

Thank you for your response! I think that this kind of marketing strategy takes great confidence in one's product and establishing a following. Based on all the wonderful reviews here and elsewhere, they seem to have accomplished that! I am a hopeless deal hound, so I just have to check if there is anything first :D.

Agreed! I am the same way... hence why I'm on the hunt for a YSL through an online retailer that I can use the most promo codes on :).
 
Advice, please.

Been wanting a new wristlet style for years, and just found Polene. Specifically the Numéro Six. I'm torn between black, burgundy, or maybe peach (if it comes back in stock). Honestly, what I really want is the rose - but with rose gold metal rather than yellow gold; but that's not an option, so... Black? Burgundy? Hope peach comes back? (I'd also love black or burgundy with rose gold metal...)

From pics online I'm a bit nervous about the burgundy. Some pics it looks stunning, others... Meh. Same with the peach. Seems like it's totally dependant on the lighting? Can anyone who has the burgundy or peach advise, please?

Love the great prices! That means I can actually have 'Santa' gift it to me for Christmas, unlike the other bags in my wish list. And I have been wanting a new wristlet for so long...
 
Looks like no one posted the numero sept mini yet? Got mine few weeks ago and have been using it, it's beautifully made, doesn't hold a lot but essentials (small wallet, phone, lipsticks, tissue, keys, compact), the strap is not adjustable and it's a bit long on shoulder (5'2') for my liking, I use it as crossbody and the length is perfect.
