Can’t help on the weight issue... I don’t own one. But does sound oddly high. I too love the Series S. My dream bag if I could afford anything. The perfect combination of classy and casual, modern yet timeless, very practical and functional.

On the Valextra website they state the weight. I don't know which size you want but you could check there too.
Did you already compared them? Everybody mentioned how light the bags are, so I thought that 3.3 pounds must have been a typo.
Yes, I did. The Valextra website says roughly 1.7 pounds if I did the conversion from kgs correctly. That sounds more realistic than what Net-a-porter is showing. I decided to order the bag so when it arrives I'll try and remember to post about the weight.
That sounds a lot more plausible indeed. If you can include a picture of the bag, when it arrives, that would be great too. I hope it arrives soon.
I tried the Iside MM in Black a few weeks ago and it's killing me because I love it so much. But I said no more bags. 
That's a gorgeous bag! I wouldn't be able to pass it up if I saw it in person.I tried the Iside MM in Black a few weeks ago and it's killing me because I love it so much. But I said no more bags.

Did you decide to purchase? The more I use my SerieS, the more I love it. I said no more bags this year after this purchase but an Iside in oyster is really calling me!I'm trying to fight the temptation to get it...
No I didn't.
I just find it to be too similar to my black box Kelly 28 with GHW in terms of shape. But my Kelly is retourne, not sellier. I also recently got my holy grail Birkin 30 back over the weekend from months of spa after I purchased it back in October and I have been enjoying that instead as it feels like a new bag to me.If anything, I think the Iside MM would be similar to a Kelly 25 sellier in black epsom with GHW. That's how I see it anyway.
Let me know if you end up going for it and if you happy with the purchase!
Oyster is really a fabulous colour - 4 season, neutral without being boring.
No, the Iside only comes with a narrow strap because of how it fastens to the body of the bag in a very cool way. There is a metal bit on the end of the strap that clicks invisibly into a metal clasp on the body of the bag. The overall look is one of chic, architectural simplicity. No unsightly, clunky d-rings.
If you want a Valextra bag with a wider strap, there is the Serie S or the Twist top handle bag. I think the Serie S comes in Oyster, but you’d have to check the website.
