So I looked at the textured leather description for nano and standard numero un and it has the exact same picture of a swatch with a description on it, so hopefully it is the same? I was wondering that about a blue one.

Just got my nano in the smooth black leather! Love it and will definitely be getting another one. It doesn’t seem like it will scratch too easily. I was able to fit my agenda, mini pochette, iPhone X, card holder, and I probably could’ve gotten my round coin purse in there too.
Noooooo I keep hoping the Nano is just meh but obvi it’s not and makes me want one (despite already buying 3 Polene bags this year). The smooth leather is gorgeous!
Does anyone know if the shipping code still active?
They said it would be through Christmas Eve, so it should be.
Judging from all the reviews of the quality on Polene's other bags, I doubt that they would make it plasticky. I personally think it looks really nice textured on the model shots. Also, I myself ordered the textured leather in black so will be able to share when it arrives.
I noticed that most people on this forum bought the smooth leather, so haven't seen any "real" pictures of what the textured looks like.The smooth is sooooo pretty, I might have to buy a second bag with it if/when it comes back in stock. This depends if the smooth leather is easy to scratch. I bought the textured one because I was looking for an everyday bag that I could bring traveling, running errands, going out to bars, potentially going clubbing with it, etc, hanging out with my small dog, without having to worry about any scratches accumulating.

I ordered the tangerine and it’s supposed to come on Monday. It’s the textured leather as well, and I’ll report once I get it, too! Tangerine, people! 
I caved late last night got the black textured nano for similar reasons as you! Haha my friend spilt a whole drink on me yesterday so textured is probably for the better!

Did your bag arrive with plastic on the gold clasp? I just got my Numero Deux and there was no protective clear plastic so there is some small imperfections on it already.
Can you share the free shipping code please? I looked but couldn’t find it. Thanks.
Yes! There was plastic on all of the gold areas including the interior.
that’s a bummer! I would contact them. Mine now has scratches because I’ve been using it the last week but they’re not noticeable
Well she came today. She's gorgeous but smaller than i expected. Not sure why since I have the full size so I knew the pictures would be a little deceptive. The strap is too small for crossbody on me. The smooth leather doesn't seem too delicate to me at all. It's definitely not a soft lambskin leather (I was hoping that it would feel more like that). It will scratch but any leather will. I think the photo is a pretty good reflection of what the leather is like. They need to make these in a pebbled leather! I'm anxious to see someone's textured.I also got the black croc Numero Six. I love it! Especially the croc leather but not sure I'll get much use out of her. I can get my Iphone 8 Plus in her even with a case but not much room left.
If anyone wants more pics, i'm happy to oblige.
I'm not sure if it's because I'm sick or what but I'm not feeling either one. I feel like I would be better off with just getting another regular size Numero Un. I'm going to think about it a little more. In case I decide to return, does anyone have any experience with a return to Polene from the US?
Wish there was a size bigger than mini/nano but smaller than the regular Un. With a long but adjustable leather strap. And that it wouldn’t sell out and they’d have green—sage or regular green. Wonder if they would do a custom order...?! Hahaha
