Looks like they’re already almost sold out. BTW, the mini is very difficult to get into. The opening is pretty small.
Hi All! I am hoping to get the small parachute in green oasis. Does anyone have any suggestions for an insert/organizer for this bag? I am having a hard time finding one. Apologies if this is the wrong thread to post this question. Thank you in advance for your help! 
It’s a really small bag and an organizer would just take up the limited space.
Thank you. I appreciate your feedback. I guess its a lot smaller than I realized.
Finally saw the larger Parachute in person and I just cannot get past that cheap looking gold knot. I think it ruins the bag but the positive is that the handle drop is longer than the original. This is a hard pass for me and I’ll continue my hunt for the originals preloved.
I finally saw it too. My reaction was a bit more positive. While the metal knot eliminates the bag’s simplicity, I see that it does elevate it a bit. I think the key issue here is color. The knot looks more elegant depending on the color. I handled the bag in a light turquoise color and I didn’t love the metal knot with that. But with a darker shade it could look nice.
I too liked the longer strap and the larger weave works well with the bag’s proportion.
It’s the pricing that has me rattled. DH and I were just in Milan and visited both BV boutiques and it was so nice that he wanted to buy me something. But I just didn’t see anything that warranted such expensive costs.
Agree, the pricing is daunting now on the Parachute and my other wish list piece the Cobble but then all the designer lines have really ratcheted up the prices. I found a new Cobble on Fashionphile for over $2k less than retail but it’s black - a color I don’t need.
I just got the small parachute and I love it. Its the perfect size for me, not too small. It fits everything I need, iPhone max, sunglasses, key pouch, card holder and air pods holder. I can't fit much else but I am very happy with it.
Although I agree it is very pricey, I fell in love with it and I highly recommend. I like the gold detail, I agree that it elevates the bag. I got it in the green oasis which is actually the perfect Tiffany blue color.

If anyone has this bag purchased in 2024, does it include the traditional BV serial number tag underneath the leather base? I can't find it on my bag.
I cannot find it either. The base seems to be bonded to the bottom so I wouldn’t pry it up. It isn’t in the included pouch either. And so surprising there is no certificate of craft for this bag considering the pricepoint.
