5’1” , I think it depends on how you would wear it. I wear it slung on my back not across my chest generally.

If it helps, I’m 5’4, have the small banana bag, and consistently wish I had gotten the large instead. The small is not as slouchy and doesn’t give as much of a casual vibe.
Anyone here has the Everyday bag in Medium or Banana bag in Large (or maybe both!) and tell me which one is best for everyday use? Have a hard time deciding for which one to buy..
I have the small everyday bag and I love it. I can use mine for every day as I don’t carry much. I think the medium is the perfect size and its shoulder carry too. It’s flat but when you fill it the bottom stretches out and from there to the straps these beautiful folds develop. Such a gorgeous bag.
I have a question about the half moon bag. On youtube some people say that the bag doesn’t really stay on the shoulder and slips off. In case you have the bag, did you experience the same thing?
Thank you
Thank you
Yes, it does unfortunately. The handle is flat, wide, and very smooth so does slip off often. It doesn’t bother me too much but I can see it bothering other people.
Oh thanks a lot for your help. The bag looks absolutely amazing I am glad it doesn’t bother you.
I really love having my hands free though. That is why I never buy top handle bags or clutches. Such a pity 🙁
I agree with @epistolic but would also add that the fact it’s so light doesn’t help either. So cute though.
I do still wear it mostly on the shoulder, I think the fact it slips off often just means it’s a little less carefree - I notice when I’m wearing it that I’m very “aware” of what the strap is doing, because I know at any time it can suddenly slip off (and potentially bang against something or scratch the leather), so I’m always hyper aware of when it’s about to slip. So far I’ve always caught it in time!
It's here and I used it once as a work bag. Holds A LOT which is what I need. I love the smooth leather but this soft leather is great for work (worry-free) and better for my wallet 😅. It can get heavy with the laptop especially this is not a shoulder bag. I have my other options if I want to carry a shoulder bag instead. Thanks for letting me share!
I would love any feedback on your Margaux if you have the 15. I finally purchased the beautiful Cuir and I am obsessed with the look and color, but want to make sure it is practical. I just worry if I let it go will regret because the leather, color etc is amazing and they are so hard to get, but I also don't love the hand carry- thoughts from the Row team on here?!
I like it!! Bought a few years ago and no regrets or plans to let it go. I’m a bit careful - no over filling etc - and it’s still looking good.
I don’t find it an overly impressive looking bag with a presence, like say the Margaux. Even the Banana bag is more eye catching than the Mail Bag IMO.
But it’s a classy version of an old school messenger style in lux leather, very discreet and under the radar … which makes me happy 😊
I’m not with the bag right now. There are a few photos I added to this thread when I brought it home but no mod shots sorry.
I went back and looked and saw I was actually part of the conversation.
The idea of a classy old school style is really appealing. My concern is size, I've seen at least three different sets of measurement for the small.
