It has! Sorry I have been swamped lately and not gotten to take the best pictures yet! The size is fabulous, and I love the interior organization options. I am used to having none without an insert with my LVs. The strap works well as a crossbody extended all the way out but is also very comfortable as a shoulder bag. I like that the strap has such nice details and can adjust to so many different lengths. The interior snap closure is probably my favorite. I usually drive by myself so I really appreciate that I can open the interior one handed and close it back one handed YET it is secure. I hate a snap that takes superhuman strength to open. I also really appreciate that structure of the bag because it does not slouch; it stands on its own. The only cons to me are that the leather was not exactly as plush as I wanted. Do not get me wrong, the leather is amazing however the bag is so light that my brain automatically thinks it is thinner...I don't know how to explain it. I also am not a fan of the interior material. I do not like shiny fabric lining. I am more of a microfiber, suede, thicker textile girl. All of that being said, I would absolutely buy this bag again. The color and hardware are just perfect together. It is so hard to find the perfect caramel/whiskey/cognac brown leather color.
ETA: I really loved the box it came in! Similar to the flap top LV boxes but in a very pretty green.
@Indiana here are some pics for you! I included natural light/sunlight and indoor lighting, plus what fits. It can fit more, but everything shown is all I carry...and no bag distortion!

Such a lovely colour in foulonne leather. Gorgeous bag!
I totally agree! Tossing up now between caramel and navy.. tough choice!
Tough choice indeed. Both colours are lovely. Caramel is such a rich tone of brown. To me, the right shade of brown is important for it not to look too mature. I like caramel as a good brown is hard to pass up.
I agree. It is hard to find the "just right" shade of brown. This one's shade is a luxurious caramel and I knew I would regret it if I did not purchase it. I compare this kind of brown to horse saddles, those perfect cognac leather riding boots, and baseball gloves. It has always been my favorite leather color.
It sounds like you are leaning towards caramel. If brown had always been your favourite leather colour, go for it then.
DOES ANYONE HAVE the Longchamp Le foulonne in ORANGE ??? I saw this at TJMaxx and I love the shape and size, seems very classic. But is the color wearable ???? I nornally love orange in general. Or do I wait for a neutral......... just wondering if its too bright LOL
That is just gorgeous! Looks like a great neutral, to be honest. If you don’t get it, would you consider being my personal shopper?
Months late to the question but in case useful for anyone I have the Paprika from yonks ago, daily bag for probably 5 years but in and out of rotation for another 5 before that. I love it! It ages very gracefully.
Here taken in natural light. My wardrobe is dark but I wear it to work because it's the kind of thing that is stylish but not too loud.

Hello everyone, it's been a while.
Added to my medium Le Foulonne collection. It took me a while but I bought them all pre-loved. I originally got the navy from TRR a two years ago, and finally decided to get the Caramel and the Turtledove. I didn't really need the black, but I bought it from Poshmark because I saw it at a price I was comfortable with. The medium size really is the perfect everyday bag for me and it's so chic. I love that it can fit my folded over the ear headphones. I wish Longchamp would update the measurements on the website though. When you spread out the bottom and measure the depth is actually 2.5" not 1.6" like they have listed.
