UPDATE: So my bag actually arrived at work yesterday while I was working from home, so this morning I went to pick it up from my colleagues in the warehouse, took it into a small meeting room to unbox... and all I can say is WOW! I couldn't stop grinning like an idiot, because I'm so impressed with it.

I love the top handle, the crossbody sits perfectly on my frame (I'm 5'6 for reference), not heavy at all and it's not too boxy like the Givenchy Antigona in small (which I sold earlier this year). I think this is a better alternative, to be honest.

This is one of the most underrated bags I've ever seen. It's one of those bags that make you question the concept of luxury bags and why you justified spending so much previously. With all that being said, this bag has now rounded out my collection, so I will not be purchasing any more bags for the foreseeable future.

I was planning to carry a smaller bag tomorrow when I go out, but I'm very tempted to debut this baby!

Please ignore the hideous background...

These dimensions are extremely confusing to me. Is this width x height x depth, or do I have the order incorrect?

Numero Un Nano
Dimensions : 22 X 17 X 9 cm

Numero Un
Dimensions : 32 X 16,5 X 23 cm

Numero Un Mini
Dimensions : 20,5 X 18 X 9 cm

It's been a while since I've been in this thread. I still love my Numero Un! I came here to see if there's an any info on the new Nano. It's :love: Has anyone seen one in person?

I haven’t seen one in person, but I ordered a black textured Nano today. I will post pics as soon as I receive it....and comparison pics to my Numero Un in navy croc. I figure, the bags are so sturdy and well-made, if I hate the longest strap length or size on me, one of my DDs can get it as a gift. Not too much of a gamble at this price point, and I’m already a fan of the brand!

Congratulations on your new bag! Looking forward to seeing your pics.

I just purchased the Polene un nano in textured black leather but I was really close to buying the smooth black leather! Since I want to use this as a daily bag that can withstand a bit of wear, I thought the textured leather would be the wiser choice. But still thinking about the smooth leather. :)

Does anyone know if the smooth leather on any of their other bags scratch easily?

I cannot address the smooth leather, but I have two textured that don’t scratch, so you made a wise choice.
