Thank you for the kind offer.
I'm going contact a few closer boutiques to see if they also have them in stock. If not I will contact the Vancouver boutique to see if they can ship it.

@V0N1B2 Sorry! Thought you get new information/confirmation from a SA
Because it did say it comes with the cardholder on the website, but it's no longer there when I was checking at the store, so I was thinking it might be regional settings/sales option
Size comparison for anyone's interested

What size is that smaller brown one?
The boutique is in Holt Renfrew in Vancouver.Thank you for the kind offer.
I was ’accidently’ just visiting the Bottega Veneta store and found some The Pouch.
I was so sure I would prefer the smooth style, but I don’t. The intrecciato is much softer and interesting. The smooth one is actually kind of stiff. Not at all delicate as I thought. And now I am very sure the small size isn’t for me, even if it very cute. It is actually hard to easily fit my phone and I don’t even have a plus phone.
I fell in love with the light yellow and the nude next to it. Unfortunately they don’t come in the big size. So I might have to wait for other colours.
Since I was very fascinated by the Cipria colour (light beige) the SA showed me the mini Jodie, and it was gorgeous. So gorgeous that I am thinking of buying it instead
It is bigger than the small pouch and can be carried as a clutch, which gives the same look as The Pouch. What I didn’t like with the Jodie is the zipper (seems like their new standard zipper) which feels cheap and it wasn’t smooth at all. I could see the leather being scratched by the zipper.
Took some comparison pictures.

I wish the Jodie had the original intrecciato weave...I was ’accidently’ just visiting the Bottega Veneta store and found some The Pouch.

nope, you're notAm I the only non-Pouch person? I can appreciate the leather but the style just doesn't do it for me at all. Maybe the smallest crossbody but I wouldn't buy it.
one is too small, another is too large
i don't know what exactly, but something does not feel right to me. I am usually very straight forward, i see it, i know immediately if the bag is ME, or not. With the pouch i can't figure it out.
not sure where you are located, but there are dozens of them in Dubai, in the boutiques and in the Harvey Nichols/Bloomie's stores

You and me both...something just doesn’t look right with this new “larger” weave!

I LOVE the mini jodie but I really wish it came in the darker tan color. I hope more colors come out in this style.
I also LOVE the pouch but I get so torn before I purchase - the regular size is HUGE and the little size is SO small... can't they make a medium pouch?!
I received the Pouch 20 in Camel as a birthday gift recently. While it is absolutely adorable, I was honestly a bit shocked at how small it turned out to be! It looks bigger in photos. My iPhone X hardly fits inside. Nevertheless, I really like it! The leather is buttery soft (I got the smooth leather one). Cant wait to take her out!
Yikes. I thought it was bigger also... I may have to rethink and maybe go for the larger size. But people say that one is too big!
Congratulations! I have this one too and it’s adorable. I actually got a smaller phone-Iphone 11pro, and it fits better than my iPhone 7 Plus. It’s definitely a minimalist bag, but the leather is amazing
Happy Birthday
Exactly! One is very small and minimalist, and the other is too large. An in-between size would be ideal. I think if you have an opportunity to see both sizes IRL then definitely check them out before making a decision.

Yay bag twins! Thank you!
I just ordered the same one - despite my desire to have it be slightly bigger but not actual pouch size bigger. I think it will be a great night out / brunch accessory. I can't wait to get it! How are you liking yours?
