Also general comments between the PS1 Tiny lambskin and the PS1+ Tiny in calfskin. I have yet to use the PS1+ but have been able to see how the PS1 in sapphire has worn. The leather has already soften substantially and probably won’t retain structure to stand up on it’s own without being stuffed. I also think I prefer the leather on the lambskin, not sure if the lack of structure will bother me. The pockets on the PS1+ I think I will prefer more because I can prob put my phones in the back zip pocket vs inside the front magnetic pocket. I can also slip my keys and Kleenex into the front magnetic pocket as well without having to open the magnet (which can be kind of hard). I find that both my phones in the front magnetic pocket can be too heavy making the bag tip over due to the extra weight in the front.

Thank you for your observations! If you would like to, could you also post pictures of what you can fit into the Tiny vs the Mini? I'm sure I'm not the only one here who just loves bag tetris.
Proenza Schouler has taken further markdowns on their sale bags, including that beautiful fog grey. Their prices are less than FarFetch right now, though FarFetch might go to 35% or 50% off at some point. FarFetch also adjusts prices up and then provides an extra 30% or 35% off depending on where they are in the sales cycle.
Aw this just makes me sad I bought the medium PS1 in Fog at a higher price and it didn’t even come with an authenticity card.
I actually did purchase from PS but for some reason it shipped through Farfetch and came from a location within the US. So I’ve been working with PS customer service about the authenticity card. They gave me a UPS tracking number but it never shipped in the past week. UPS still shows waiting for shipment.
Oh, that's right, I remember that you mentioned you purchased it from PS but it shipped via FF, which is a bit odd.
Will they not do a price adjustment for you? I have never asked them so I don't know if they might be open to that. You might ask them to do it as a courtesy, in light of the issues with no authenticity card.
Being this was my first experience ordering from PS website, I don’t think I will ever order from them again. They basically said inventory counts have caused a backlog and that is why the authenticity card has not been mailed out in 2 weeks. Plus they will not honor a price adjustment as they only do them within 7 days of the purchase date. Even though I received this bag incomplete over three weeks ago, I have had to chase them down for a response on why I haven’t received the complete set and they won’t honor an exchange or do a price adjustment to compensate. This has really tainted my purchases.
Ugh, I'm sorry they have been so uncooperative. They were probably overwhelmed due to the holidays and all the orders and then the sale started. Still, I don't blame you for not wanting to order from them directly again. I've not had a problem with them in the past but I also am going to be contacting them over a missing authenticity card and I'll see for myself if they are cooperative or not.
That's odd, the hangtag is not supposed to be detachable.
I think you should definitely contact the Outnet and ask about it. Do they offer any kind of coupons and partial refunds? Even if purchased at a discount, the bag should be new with all the bits and bobs in place.
Hey guys, so many of you are asking about wear and tear and the hang tag. Check out my Mini PS1 versus PS1+ MED comparison video where I address all those with close up shots of the hang tag and the softness of the leather:
