I were you, I will abandon it.
Malachite green is much beautiful than bamboo.
As for Bolid, it is not difficult for European residents to get from Hermes boutique recently.
i.e. It must be hard to resell, if you would like to do in the future.

i love greens butbamboo is too much, malachite is way more sophisticated
but most importantly you are not in love with it, so it is a pass

I love green but shied away from bamboo even in slg/belt, not sure why, could be
it's seasonal or it's just too full-on :hrmm: definitely better in smaller doses :::greengrin:
The bolide is such a classic I just don't think the style lends itself to this colour, only my opinion though.
 
It's an amazing green, fresh and vibrant and very importantly goes well with so many colours. I love mine, it can be crisp modern and smart with some outfits and then playful and 'fashiony' with others, but I don't think you should have to convince yourself.

BTW, Epsom is great for Bolides if you like them sharp and structured
 
Ultimately, you have to love it. But I will say I have a 90s Vert Clair Courchevel Bolide-- a bright grass-green in a very structured leather-- and I love it. I carry it lots in the spring and summer. I think bright colors really suit the Bolide's shape, especially in one of the smaller sizes.
 
I personally LOVE it and would buy it, it's a great combination of size, color and leather that all work really well together (if it were larger than 31 I'd pass on pop colors, and Epsom works very nicely with bright colors like Bambou IMHO).

But that's just me, if you don't love it then for purchases like this my motto is always "when in doubt just DON'T do it"!!!!
 
I am the minority here. Bambou is too bright for me. I'd get tired of it after a while. Bolide also seems like a more serious/mature bag, I would also opt for a neutral color. But as some of pointed it out, ultimately it is how you like it and do you feel comfortable carrying it?
