I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a numero un in monochrome grey. Couldn’t pass up free shipping. Does anyone have a liner/organizer that fits nicely in it? I want to find one that fits its unique shape well.
Stashio from Amazon. They come in 3 piece sets, 5 piece, etc. You use how many you need for each purse. They are soft, so they conform to the shape of the bag and have magnets so they stick together in your bag. Sometimes I use one in a bag, sometimes all of them.

First of all, their customer service was excellent. I emailed asking about shipping and they replied in less than 12 hours.
Placed my order Saturday, got an email saying it shipped Sunday, and arrived Wednesday.
It was packaged beautifully. The box is lovely pearlescent cream, and the dust bag is thick and substantial.
The bag its self: the leather is stiff and has that new leather smell. Even my husband was impressed. I wanted a structured bag and the leather its self is beautiful. It is on the heavier side, but not overly so for a leather bag of this size. The cross body strap is short.
The grey monochrome leans browner than I expected, but it could be the light. I'll have to look at it in daylight but it's not as much of a cool grey as I thought. Not disappointed at all.
This would be so beautiful in black. I prefer the textured leather for durability. Very pleased with this purchase.
Let me know what you all think of yours!

Gorgeous, enjoy! I saw this in person in their Paris store and agree it’s more of a greige than a true grey (which is why I purchased as warm tones look better with my skin tone). Weirdly the photos on their website reflect it as cool toned but in person and on Instagram it’s more of a warm beige/grey. For sure get the black next, I have the Numero Un in Black Croc (on the flap, the rest is the textured leather) and it’s stunning. Can’t wait for mine to ship after quarantine but will admire photos of yours until then!

To be honest I think their customer service can do better. But I agree with you on the quality of the bag. I got mine in numero sept mini (grained leather - black) and it’s stunning!

however I do wish they could have picked another chain because when I played with it I realised the chain somehow gets tangled a bit.

anyway Im satisfied with this brand
 
Looks like they are still offering free shipping on their website despite it being May 1. Might as well treat yourself to the Numero Un Mini :amuse:! All of us on this TPF thread support this decision lol.
tsk tsk

well in all fairness I had to return a bag that I just received (not Polene), so I went ahead and ordered this. it evens out since I am not keeping the other bag
 
Hi ladies. I'm interested in the Numero Sept Mini in black. I have two questions, if anyone can help!

1) I'm interested in the smooth leather. Has anyone noticed their smooth leather scratching, nicking, or creasing easily?

2) How long does the chain on the Sept Mini hang? I'm 5'7" so on the taller side for women. I'd like to wear this bag crossbody, but am worried about it looking comically short on me! If anyone could measure their Sept Mini chain, I'd be ever so grateful.

1) cant answer this because I have the one in grain leather
2) Im 5’5 (65 kg) and I would say that it does hang a bit short as a crossbody. Not sure of the measurements sorry

Hello, the drop on the chain of the Numero Sept Mini is approximately 19 inches. I hope that helps you! It’s a great little bag
 
That's the one I ordered too! I don't have a grey in my collection and love my other Polene bags (Numero Un in Black Croc, Numero Un Mini in Monochrome Burgundy and Numero Deux in Smooth Black) so had to pull the trigger. Post photos of yours when it arrives! I went with the after quarantine option so who knows when I'll actually receive mine.
I have 5 Polene bags now and Numero Un in Monochrome Grey was my very first one! You will love it. It is such a beautiful color....almost a grey/beige hybrid. Super neutral and goes with so much.
