Hi! So the custom Mattuo strap extensions for my City just got to me and they're pretty great - not quite a 100% match, but then my bag's a Metallic Edge in chèvre with the light gold h/w colour which is probably harder to match. You'd never notice any difference in leather or h/w colour at all unless you looked really closely. I think they're going to make the bag much easier to carry. I recommend Mattuo!

I am really leaning towards getting a strap from them too. Seems like there are lots of good reviews. Which color did you go with?

My bag's in black chèvre, so I got the Low Pebble Black Leather - from what I remember there's another leather available that looks more like agneau, they have a list on the website of all the leathers they do. And to match the light gold hardware I got the Gold #16 hooks, but if you have just normal gold or silver hardware I'm sure that's much easier to match. They're very nice about answering any questions you have, too. Hope that helps!

It was this guy in Nordstrom in Nashville. He said in a total attitude that there aren't long straps because the City has been made and worn for years with the short strap. Gosh, I wish I remembered his exact verbiage because it was clearly snarky and unkind. I think I saw steam coming out of my husband's ears because he was so upset someone spoke to me that way, so we left quickly after.
