Big decision to make: should I buy a new sac a depeches light 1-37 or a Kelly depeches 36 briefcase? Interested not only on the beauty of the design and practicality of the purchase but also as an investment. Thoughts please! View attachment 5728921View attachment 5728922
the bag below is not K depeches 36, it is the original K depeches 34 (also comes in 38) - the differences between this original design w the current K depeches 36 are at the handle and bottom corners.

personally i don’t understand why they need to come up w new design - the original design is already amazing and not to mention, sturdy when putting on any surface.

I agree. The earlier rectangular design with 90degree corners and the Kelly sangles/turnlock fastening is by far the nicest.

the newer version is lighter and follows the trend they did for SaD with the light version that has a curved base.
although I do wonder why they didn't name it Kelly Depeches Light.

oh well. H has never been good with naming bags anyway. one day 24/24 means a messenger bag for men, the next day 24/24 means a top-handle bag with a twist clasp :D
 
It takes a bit to get used to but I don’t mind because of the beauty of the bag’s design. Zero buyer’s remorse here. Shoulder Strap Drop Max: 20.87 inches/53 cm and Drop Min: 16.93 inches.
thanks so much! hopefully it will be suitable for me as a woman! i adore men's bags and like to use the smaller ones as women's bags as they are more unique and not so common 🙈☺️😄

Are you looking at a particular color scheme? I think your choice of color will determine whether it will be a good look for you. I had been looking for my first men’s crossbody bag for a while and had even purchased one from Longchamp, which was ok, then the sac a depeches 21 made its debut in 2022 and when I saw it I determined then it was my dream men’s crossbody.

I've already purchased an etoupe size 21 one from the online store and am waiting for it to arrive. hopefully it will work with my relatively petite frame cos im 5'3'' only 🙈
