I just ordered two sliders (black epi and vachetta) from Leatherprince. I asked them the question about patina on the vachetta. The response is "The vegetable tanned leather will turn darker as time goes by..." That's good enough for me, although I realize that the different leathers will probably patina at different speeds and will not be identical. I'm so glad to have found this option thanks to you ladies!

Oh wow..that's awesome!! I'm really loving the way the epi sliders are looking as well. Love Etsy for their variable custom orders!!!
 
Just ordered mine and looking forward to using it. I have my vintage Noe back from it's "spa holiday" in Paris with new drawstring & new vachetta top piping so will keep you posted. Thanks again. (Im in UK).


My slider ordered on 9 April arrived today which I thought was great service ! Thanks again for the info - would highly recommend getting one - a real game changer.
 
I'm obsessed with the Noe. I recently received a new petit mono from my DH for our 10th anniversary... it's pristine, beautiful, and my everyday work bag. But now I have a bee in my bonnet about getting a pre-loved noe for traveling. One that I don't have to worry about putting on the floor of the plane and baby in the airport. A new, regular sized noe would stress me out, I think.

Has anyone else done this... a new version of a bag and a preloved version of the same style, but for a different purpose or am I out of my mind?

Nope you are not out of your mind! I also have a petite Noe (in mono) and just recently purchased a new Noe in azur because I love the style so much. I want to use both bags as an everyday bag so I can rotate them. I'm very petite (about 4'11) and had been thinking for a very long time about purchasing the Noe since it's quite a big bag on me, but I have decided that I'm gonna go ahead and rock it with confidence because I love the style so much and that's all that matters!

I purchased a pre-loved petite Noe in monogram (old model) and then purchased a new petite Noe in sapphire Epi. I love the Noe and I don't think you are out of your mind.
 
I just arrived from vacation and have seen that i got my slider. *yay*

As to the craftsmanship of the slider itswell done.

Do the materials of the slider fit to the bag? Eh..well.. It could be improved. First the leather is different. Noes is matt. This one is shiny, probably treated and i kind of doubt that it will get soon a darker color to match my noe. The color of the stitching is too neon in comparison to noe.

So far the slider looks like an alien on the bag. I hope it will change.

I bought two. One light and one darker for as it patinas. You might want to get an extra one its just so useful I can't imagine using it without one ..
 
I re read your post and said that your slider is shiny. Both mine are "matte" texture. I posted both photos in the previous page of the two the seller sent me before he shipped it out
