I find it weird when I see women with men's bags the same way I find it weird when I see men with women's bags
It’s just ridiculous! As if you’re going to change your mind about an item because a sales associate tells you it’s from the men’s collection. And as for the zippy compact wallet I was advised against purchasing, they even make a zippy wallet in Damier Graphite and Monogram Eclipse that opens the same way as the zippy compact and is similar in shape and size. It’s bizarre!
Right?! Im the type it could have been for a kids collection and if I loved it I’m going to buy it!! I hear you on the zippy, it’s basically the same!!! I’m glad we are strong enough to stand our ground and get what we wanted!!!!!! ❤️❤️
I ordered this bag yesterday! Can't wait for it to come. Looks gorgeous in the pictures. How do you like it so far?I credit + blame this specific thread for how I came to own this City Keepall. So, thanks and...thanks a lot, because I did not need another temptation.
I don't have a Speedy and figured I might one day get one, but the size of the opening has been one of the reasons I've hesitated. I appreciate that this style has the zipper opening that goes a bit deeper into the sides. I also simply love the Monogram Eclipse color and look.
I added my silver lock from my BFF Padlock Bag Charm set to round it all out.

Congratulations @mliLV! I am so glad I could pass on the credit + blame game
I love, love, love the City Keepall so far and would be open (should some money fall from the sky) get it in additional prints and materials. I do love the new gray City Keepall.
Anyway, short answer is: Love it. Perfect size (I tend to carry a lot, so this for me this is not as big as I could go, but it's big enough to handle my stuff), perfect print, feels great to carry.
Let us know what you think when yours arrives!
It arrived the other day, and I'm loving it too! It is so much more beautiful in person. I also think it is the perfect size. Not too big, not too small. Hands-free. I can wear this bag for many occasions. I like it so much, that I'm thinking of getting it in additional prints in the future as well.
I don’t have this bag, but I have thought about it as everyday bag.
Hi PC, I would like to know more about the city keepall from you!! Like, what are the good features of the bag, any cons, is the zipper smooth? I have 2 speedies and I wonder if I can get used to the no handle bit, but I carry the speedy crossbody 90% of the time, so the handle would sometimes be “irritating”. How is the weight like for the city keepall? I’m going for the all black city keepall if I’m considering this. Is the hardware for the black piece metal or plastic, can’t tell much from the picture.
I haven’t read much about aerogram leather here. Wonder how it is like (maintenance, durability, etc). Anyone else with information about aerogram leather or how the city keepall works for you would be greatly appreciated! Just when everyone is going Gaga over the beautiful SS colours, I’m diving into a deep dark black...
I've ordered from the McDonald's kid's menu and I'm not ashamed to say it.
I love the look of the city keepall, only decided no to one as I do use the handles and I’ve been buying some small bags lately. I have a little experience with aerogram in 2 key pouches I bought, the black and the orange. I love the leather! It’s soft, fairly smooth, durable, fairly lightweight and has that wonderful leather scent. I can tell it will wear really well and last forever. My black aerogram pouch has metal hardware in matte black, and I love that too. I’m pretty careful with my bags and slg’s, not precious, but no issues after a few months of daily wear/carry. I think the all black city keepall would be stunning for you!!! Let us know what you decide.
I don't own Aerogram but I was researching recently. The hardware is hardware and can scratch unfortunately, this includes the logo .
It's a beautiful design though, I was considering that city keepall too! But went for a bag charm instead.
The SA told me it is calf leather. I had asked if it's like taurillon but it's more their non-taurillon calf leather. Hope that helps!
I would have kept the plastic sticker on the logo if I bought it, but the other hardware parts like the clasps and zipper will probably eventually scratch, too. It depends what you're comfortable with. I could probably put up with the clasps scratching a bit given the sleek design, but it would have also bothered me given the price.
Edit: saw DrTr's post above and she actually owns Aerogram so that is great to know
That's great to know your hardware hasn't scratched!! Does the orange discolour so far? (Like dirt etc) thank youI love the look of the city keepall, only decided no to one as I do use the handles and I’ve been buying some small bags lately.

I only got the orange last week, so dk yet. But I have some bright colors in H leather and I don’t find they discolor or show dirt at all. I’m a little anxious about the b/w NF I just got yesterday - it’s been years since I had white leather, but it’s so gorgeous I’m going to give it a try!That's great to know your hardware hasn't scratched!!
