I wish they would make the number six just a bit bigger. I have two of them but with phones getting larger, I can barely fit anything else in there! I always get compliments when I carry it though

WE are bag twins. I LOVE my textured black Numero UN....so much that I now have a blue one. Enjoy it.Hi bag lovers!
I got my first Polene bag as Christmas present and would like to share some picutures and thoughts with you. My other bags are Louis Vuitton, Longchamp and TOD's but at a Purse Blog I saw a review of the Polene numero un and fell in love immediately!!! After short time of stalking their website and the Purse Forum, I ordered a black one online and was very excited, how I would like this bag. And what shall I tell you, I am in love!!! The shape is so beautiful, the leather thick and smells wonderful, the craftmanship excellent, it holds a lot, can be worn different ways and looks so unique! The only con for me is the weight, but this is because of the thick leather. Now I am thinking About ordering a Numero un nano in burgundy colour, but can't decide on the kind of leather - smooth or textured?? Any experience or thoughts? Is the textures leather too stiff for the small size (it looks NOT the same leather as on the big bag!!!!), is the smooth leather creasing or too delicate for getting scratches and not holding its shape?? Thank you for your thoughts and forView attachment 4625824 View attachment 4625825 View attachment 4625827 View attachment 4625831 letting me share!
Thank you, I really enjoy my Numero Un! Have worn her only a few times since Christmas, but sure will use her very often!! Would like to order a Nano in burgundy, but I still don't know which kind of leather, although I read almost the whole comments here…. Seeing them in person really would help.WE are bag twins.

Thank you very much, I will enjoy it!Congratulations on your beautiful new bag! Enjoy!![]()
Thanks for your reply! I think, I will order the smooth leather!I personally like Polenes smoother leather as opposed to texture. It just my preference. I think it looks more polished. However, it does scratch easier so there's a con. I guess its just whatever look you like more
Welcome back. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine.hi everyone, i haven't been posting on the forum durung the last years because somehow wasn't liking anything new coming out (also the constant price increases were not helping) but also was enjoying what i've already have.
But Polene changed my mind and I ordered Numero Un Mini in Bordeaux monochrome and I love the bag! I've been using it constantly for the last 2 weeks and can't get enough of it.

Congrats on yout bag. I have the nano in siene smooth and am very happy, though am still debating my colour choice. It seems robust enough and I don't baby my bags. That said I am a tactile, texture person - white silks and linens, dove grey suede shoes... i dont mind that they look lived in, like a bag with scratches. I love the butter softness of celine, though it is exceptionally fragile. I sold all my textured type leather bags as i found i would never reach for them.Thank you, I really enjoy my Numero Un!

That said I think polene may have choosen the textured leather of the nano because a full grain pebbled leather like the original uno would be too thick for a small bag. I have a pebbled full grain leather evening bag that was a gift that i dislike because it doesnt sit properly because the leather is so think - yet it is beautiful in the full size which has the depth to accomodate the chewy thickness of the pebbled leather (like the original uno)
The textuered will be durable and look great in 2 years time if you prefer a more polished look - great for bars, crowds etc too.
Looks great and I am carrying the textured black Numero Un to a brunch. I am sure we both look wonderful, lol.I wore my new texture noir nano last night. It is super cute! Happy to report that the textured leather doesn't feel cheap or plasticky in my opinion. It's also the perfect size for daily essentials... I can even fit a Kindle Paperwhite!
