Canvas is huge and very popular, and a lot of these items are difficult to get your hands on. One item that is always online and in store is the Siena PM and MM. I own this bag and absolutely love it. Why do you think it's less popular than other canvas items?

I think it's a beautiful bag also. My guess is it isn't as common because it competes in price and function with the Speedy Bandouliere and actually costs a little bit more.
I like the rounder shape of the Speedy a little more so I went with that.

I have the Siena MM and it's the perfect bag for the days where I'm on the go and need to pack a lot into my purse. It has a much more elegant and sophisticated look than speedys imo. Since the speedys are so common, maybe that's why more newbies gravitate towards them?
Very good question.
I like this style a lot and tried it on in store two times.
I went for something else every time.
It is quite structured at the bottom and tapered at the top- like the Alma bb which I bought instead the first time, because it is a classic and the Siena is not. Price was better as well and you get a a lot of details (Lock, key bell, leather bottom) with it.
Second time I tried it on I didn‘t buy anything but when trying on I figured I would use it like my Speedy B. So it seemed too similar... thats just me.
I ordered a Neo Noe instead after the store visit,....
I would still buy it, but the price increased immensely on that one over the last two years. But it is very unique and functional.

I really like the Siena mm and pm. But the price increased so much... I can not justify buying one, as I already own a Southbank Besace.
That makes sense since it’s commonly seen carried! Same with the neverfull they’re both probably seen as LV starter bags
I just bought my 1st speedy 30 today and was about to post about it. I saw that Siena on the way out and now I’m wondering if I should have gotten the MM instead if the speedy.

It definitely comes down to personal preference! I don’t like the bulky look of a speedy but someone else would love that! I have the Siena MM and it’s so useful. The PM is cute but wouldn’t be very useful on the daily lol
I have the Siena MM and 2 speedy 30's. The Siena is just a pinch more elegant and a little less casual than the Speedy.
I think it is a bit more elegant as well. I am considering an exchange. Although I’m really loving the speedy. I’m torn.
