I thought it was a minor changes to reflect the look of the classic. I like how there is now removable straps and handle with leather slider too! I didn’t know the dimensions shrunk too!?
It was the same size as the old Nano Noe . I thought at least it will be a bit taller , but it wasnt :sad: But true, those 2 things that sold me the first place (removable straps and handle )
 
Have you contacted the store and asked if they can order one for you?
I did and they said that's not possible. I could order it online (it's available off and on) but I actually love the in-store experience. It's a rare treat and i love to make a little "event" out of the shopping. Shop - go to lunch and celebrate the new family member.... go home and unbox. I actually was looking forward to that so I prefer to not have it delivered at home

Here’s the reveal….before and after pics. My petite noe from 1991 (MIF)! (Old style without the full vachetta band at the bottom which I always preferred.) It was well loved, with most of the leather at trim and strap were dry and cracked. It was time for a change! Took almost 4 months to get it back… All new vachetta, strap and drawstring. They added a D-ring inside. All the canvas and rivets are original but lost the date code :(….. I even received a handwritten note from the person that restored the bag… (!)

It's beautiful. The Noes are one of my faves. I have a question I often heard they take the made in france heat stamp away if the repair has been done in the USA. How did you keep yours?
Thanks. I’m pleased how it has turned out also. I’m not sure how they determine that. However I have read others with Noe repairs receiving the same “made in France” heat stamp. Do they determine the repairs based on the bag style? Or original heat stamp? With all the vachetta replaced, they did take away the original date code though.

Yes I wish they would not do that!!! Enjoy your beauty ❤️

Don’t know whether l buy this multi colour bag or not, as l just already bought the multi-colour in black.

Pretty sure you're in the wrong thread to be persuaded against getting this bag! I always justify getting pieces no longer in product as soon as possible because every year (and month) that goes by, the odds of getting one in the condition you want goes down.
 
To all the Noe lovers, are you team tied or team added cinch drawstrings ? :coolio: :coolio: :love:

Not one of your options, but right now, I am team untied, ha ha. I haven’t had a chance to get the cinch yet, and I don’t want to stress the drawstrings, so untied it is!
