Has anyone seen in person new croc matte version of SDJ with bronze hardware? what is your opinion in comparison to shiny croc?
It’s actually doesn’t look that matte on the pic..
I would really like to see it in person before ordering, but unfortunately there are none in Australia.

Hi! What are the sdj models that go to the outlet? I’m thinking about getting a beige one in size baby in grained embossed leather, but I’m afraid of paying full prize for it, since a few of you have seen this bag in an outlet. Also, does it maintain the shape after a few years? I won’t be over stuffing it, but all the ones I see in celebs has lost it completely

I have no idea about the outlet selection, but I can say it holds its shape very well even after a few years. I got mine in January 2017 and used it daily until late 2019, and it still looks brand new. I didn't overstuff it, but I did use it daily and maybe put too many things a few times (but never mistreating it). Mine is the Baby size, and it was the perfect size for me, as I am petite and the Small kind of drowns me. It was a tight fit with a wallet, sunglasses, and whatever else I used to carry. If I needed more room on a particular day, I would forgo the wallet and just take a few credit cards/ cash in the pocket. Anyway, regarding shape you don't have to worry about it. I have seen pictures of ones that have become slouched and misshapen carried by celebs, but I think those were the older versions, and probably were manhandled. Or maybe it was a more supple leather?
 
I own the soupple (not sure of spelling) leather in baby size and have had it for 3 years and use it very often. I have to say even that leather in the baby size has held its shape perfectly. I also take care of my bags and never toss them around or overstuff. If my soupple leather is holding its shape, yours should. Just don’t overstuff it. Good luck with the outlet mall. It’s a great bag in any leather!

Thank you so much! You have been so much help
 
Hi ladies, does anyone know if there are some sac de jour that doesn’t come with keys?? I just bought a small with the detachable pouch and didn’t think much of it and only now realized it didn’t come with keys? I’ve heard a couple of other people say they also didn’t get keys which is odd because what is the point in having a padlock then.

It should definitely come with keys. They way they attach them I can see them getting lost easily though.

I can answer this. I went to the outlet at Woodbury on Nov 5th and saw many SDJs. Three souples in small I think, and then nano and baby too but I didn't pay much heed to the nano or baby because they were too small for me. Here are the two I was considering, but won't get them probably because the strap is way too thin that it digs into my shoulder when I wear it. I have the SA's info I think, if you want it. In general everything at the outlet was 1/3 off MSRP.

I have a black one in size baby, and it doesn't hold its shape. But I guess, it's where the beauty lies. I love my bags to look as natural as possible, that's why I go for grained ones instead of the structured one in smooth leather. A plus point of this bag is it suits every occasion: I use it daily when I first got it, and don't mind bringing it to a fancier event (I remove the strap, so it becomes a top handle and dress it with a twilly <3). It fits literally everything and taking one stuff out is never a nightmare (which might be the case with stiff ones).

If you want its shape to stay as much as they can, try stuffing it with fabrics (not heavy stuff) when not in use. Anyways, I paid full price on this one as I don't think we have a Saint Laurent outlet down here in Straya :(

Have you tried looking in the zipper? My one arrives with it being inside, not hung.

Can I have your SA's info? Thanks.
