Interesting! The new "medium" size gives people a choice to still have that oversized look, without getting swallowed by the large bags! Some of us just can't pull off oversized bags 😭
Yeah I don't think I can really pull off the large but I got it anyway lol

I am curious to see the medium, though it didn't look that much bigger than the small IMO. More curious to see what colorways will be available.
 
Called Bottega customer service today and they had no idea about the medium as well.

Does anyone who has seen or owns both the Jodie and Hop in fondant tell me how the colour and feel of the leather compares/differs? The hop in fondant looks a bit lighter and stiffer than a Jodie in the same shade. Appreciate one is calfskin and the other is lambskin. I’m nowhere near a boutique unfortunately to check both bags out in person. TIA!
 
I only saw it in Praline, which was featured in the TikTok video someone posted earlier. I’m sure this medium Hop will be more popular than the small, which had a very narrow opening (in my opinion).

I personally love the size of the small hop, but much prefer the longer handle drop of the medium! I can see how it can be much more comfortable wearing over a jacket
 
I really liked the large, and in Khaki I really had to hold myself back from buying.

Beware sizing down IMO, Hops hold less than you'd think, the lack of depth means, there is far less volume than the outside suggests.

It's true, one can't go oversized in clothing (too) unless really tall . Once you wear BV hobos in (which takes time) they look a lot better.
 
I’m so torn between the small (or medium) Jodie and the hop! I LOVE how the large hop looks, but I’m a bit afraid the corners will wear and tear badly? Any input regarding wear and tear for any of the bags mentioned above? 😊 planning on using it as my daily bag, I travel a lot for work, so it really have to work for that as well ☺️

From everything I’ve seen of the hop corner wear has not been an issue. The hop is calfskin and jodie lambskin, so the hop is going to hold up much better as a daily and travel bag
