I'm 5'6 and it's fine, it sits below my pelvic bone. I randomly use it as crossbody because the bag sways alot due to its strap, it's too thin. Most of the time I use it as a shoulder bag. Really amazed on my bag coz it's really versatile can use it in every style that u want.

I have the epi leather in Rose ballerine and I was going to order an insert to protect the inside then I thought maybe because of this special kind of lining of this bag, would an insert actually HURT the lining? Anyone have experience with inserts in the Alma bb?

I have tried quite a few makeup pouches and airline toiletry pouches of different materials, including felt for my epi Alma bb and other bags with microfiber lining, and all these linings still look brand new.

Hi everyone. Would love your help & advice please as a relative newbie to luxury!

I bought the alma BB a few days ago and have just put it to one side since unboxing.

However when I took it out of the dust bag to admire it today, I noticed that the lining is puffy & not flush to the canvas on the sides. It feels like an air pocket & it's quite firm!

Photos attached. Is this normal? When push on the puffy "bubble" of lining it doesn't deflate much and stays as sort of separated from the canvas outer.

Will the air pocket deflate? Does anyone else's Alma BB do this or is the lining flush to the canvas? Is it cause for return/exchange?

Any help or advice gratefully received! I posted this in a "flaws" thread too but wanted to ask the experts here!
