omy gosh same! Loving and using my purple pouch so much I just asked my SA to hold a black intrecciato one for me although I’m contemplating between the pouch 20 and the men’s pouch in black because it can carry more; haven’t made up my mind...

I still love my MiniPouch! :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: I'm acutually thinking of getting it in black... And @ksuromax Pouch has been having lots of adventures the past few weeks, on the Bottega Veneta in Action thread.

Greetings to All Pouch owners!

For those of you with lighter colored pouches, have you experienced color transfer on your bags and if so, has it been easy to rectify the damage? I mostly own black bags but am currently considering Ice or Cammello.

Also, I have seen "Pouch 20" frequently mentioned on this thread. Is this the same as the Mini pouch?

Thank you in advance for sharing your thoughts.

I have the purple. No problems at all with color transfer. Yes, Pouch 20 and Mini Pouch are the same. BV initially called it Pouch 20, then changed to Mini Pouch. I still often use Pouch 20 out of habit. Sorry about the confusion.

Thanks so much for responding @JenJBS ! It's good to know that color transfer hasn't been an issue for you, and appreciate the details on size. I haven't had the chance to see one in person, and was wondering what you are usually able to fit in it please? Thank you.

Yes, there has been problems with color transfer on a light colored bag - it’s on page 27 of this thread if this link doesn’t work:

Color Transfer

If you get a light colored Pouch, be extremely careful. That would be true of all light colored leather - I had a yellow Nodini and a red sweater that really intermingled ... I could not get the red off the yellow!

If you get any bag in any brand that is light colored, it pays to watch out for color transfer.

You're welcome. It really is only the essentials. Keys, card holder, phone is all I usually carry. One day, I'll include a lipstick as well... It would fit.

Thank you for the link to this color transfer issue, ouch! I do feel for the owner of the bag, and for your issue with your yellow Nodini... This is definitely a deal breaker for me, so perhaps I should consider a darker color...
 
Does anyone have a chain pouch? does that stay on your shoulder at all? I'm obsessed with the texture of the bag, but the strap seems more practical..other than the chunkiness of the chain

I just bought one!! I LOVE IT. The chain is heavy/substantial. It stayed better on the shoulder with the paper stuffing it came with. I wore it for the first time with my iphone, small wallet and kleenex (hardly anything) it was harder to stay on the shoulder. Quite a bit of room in the bag too.

I've tried on the Jodie and the Shoulder Pouch. For me, it was a tough call between the Chain Pouch and the Shoulder Pouch (i might still buy the shoulder pouch in the tan colour). The easiest to carry over the shoulder was the Jodie.

Will post photos tomorrow.
 
Hi everyone. Here I am with my chain pouch in fondante. The chain is very heavy, and I am not usually one to complain. My boyfriend thinks it’s heavy too, he was pretty shocked when I asked him to hold it for a moment the other day. I am 5’9 (175cm) tall size US 8.

I love the bag for its shape and design. I really do love all of Daniel Lee’s designs. I am not sure if I am regretting my decision. Maybe I should have gone with the shoulder pouch in tan. Mainly due to this one being heavy and the chain is so dramatic. (But of course that is why I am crazy In love with it). I am a very classic person, always on the safe side and thought why not just go for what really makes your heart sing. Hence the fondante colour with the chain lol

I should also note that people either love or hate the chain. My family (who truly know nothing of fashion/trends/style) mocked the chain all day yesterday. Made me second guess it. But then my boyfriend notices people admiring it (and he never Notices these things) In neighbourhoods and a mall that are more fashion forward. ‍

Edit: sorry for the messy floors!
