OK thanks :). I find my City Bags somewhat less user friendly than my Towns or Firsts. I was just wondering if I can improve it’s functionality for me,

I push the middle leather part towards the back so that it's not directly on my shoulder. Then the side of the bag kind of faces upwards in front and tips down at the back. It helps a bit.

The shopping cart over here usually have a "hook" just below the pushing handle bar for hanging handbag. However, i usually put my bag on the child seat (also near the pushing handle bar), which is usually clean ;)

Hi. Just wondering if I can get some advice/ideas. What is the best way to carry a City while grocery shopping etc? I refuse to put my bags in the yucky shopping cart (or really any surface that is slightly or possibly dirty, lol, yes me uptight). I find it not too comfortable to carry it in the crook of my arm while pushing the cart and grabbing stuff off shelf etc. Carrying on the shoulder with the short strap is slightly awkward for me. I try not to use my Cities on the days I have to do grocery shopping (or similar two-hand activities). Thanks in advance.

So cute! But it looks quite big! The size xs is deceiving! I'm even more petite than you... Guess the strap will be wayyyy tooooooooo loooooong on me. :sad: So now I'm eyeing the XXS ... any idea what blue this is?

It's larger than you'd think for an XS but perfect for me. Strap's a bit long on the shoulder but is the right length cross body. I haven't had a chance to play with the strap yet but i think you if you skip one of the little do-up studs and if you can put the leather ring that holds the strap end up higher you may be able to wear it shorter. I'll try to post a pic tomorrow if I'm successful!

Thanks pb :). I am afraid I am too uptight to put it anywhere on the cart (American shopping carts are often dirty and germy :(). I am really a shoulder bag girl (the Day doesn’t work for me, haven’t tried the Hobo yet). The Town works better for me since it is smaller (less awkward for me) and comes with a crossbody strap. Anyways, thanks very much.

Oh my ..... only now that i know the Bazar comes in XXS !! It's cute, but it's too tiny...... even smaller than a mini city.

That blue is a S/S 2017 production. I have a Air Hobo in the same color, which till now, still don't know the official color name! :lol::lol:

I just bought a pre-loved air hobo in that color as well and after scouring the web the only color name I came across was Bleu de Prusse on the Barney’s site but I don’t know how accurate that is. Btw, I love love that bag and I can’t wait to start wearing it!
