Thank you! The boots are Miz Mooz, and I think I got them from Nordstroms... it was back in early 2011 that I bought them!

This thread is one of the main reasons I got my PS1 (of course I've been avoiding the quality issue thread because that would steer me far away from any PS bags...). Here's my midnight love in action

Looks great on you and love your outfit!
I love that bag!!This thread is one of the main reasons I got my PS1 (of course I've been avoiding the quality issue thread because that would steer me far away from any PS bags...). Here's my midnight love in action
i can't remember if i ever posted this...smoke large and I in Paris. unfortunately the strap broke as I landed at the airport but it still got me through the trip...
you look awesome!!This thread is one of the main reasons I got my PS1 (of course I've been avoiding the quality issue thread because that would steer me far away from any PS bags...). Here's my midnight love in action
Which strap? Was it sudden or could you see there was vulnerability?i can't remember if i ever posted this...smoke large and I in Paris. unfortunately the strap broke as I landed at the airport but it still got me through the trip...
And did you get it fixed and how?
Every time I'm ready to pull the trigger on a 2nd bag, I read some horror story.
The main long strap. The metal piece broke. it just came apart...completely caught me by surprise. It's not like it was even heavier than usual. I took it to the PS store in Madison who won't fix it without a receipt, and as I purchased from ****** I am outta luck. I've taken it to two shoe repair places but no one can help. It's like it needs to be soldered together. It would be easy if PS would just replace the stupid thing. It was my favorite bag and I used it over all 20 of my others exclusively until this happened. I miss her! lemme see if I can get a pic. If anyone has any ideas on fixing it
Heartbreaking. I love these bags, but I'm afraid of things like this...The main long strap. The metal piece broke. it just came apart...completely caught me by surprise.

I actually put my midnight PS1 away for a while so I don't have to sorry about what might happen...

Oh that is terrible!! I was just reading up on the loose screws and think ok I can tighten the screws and problem solved..let's get my first PS1. Then I see your strap! That's not even Preventable or fixable! PS needs to fix their policies! I'm sorry about your bag!

Love this picture, looks gorgeous.

About your strap, how about replacing the broken piece with a brass clasp that is similar in style? A leather repair person would be able to undo the rivet on the strap, slot the new clasp in and put another brass rivet in to secure it. I know it won't be exactly the same but at least you'll be able to use your bag again. How annoying this happened -- especially during a trip.
Alternatively see if ****** can get you a replacement part and then take it to a cobbler to be attached to strap.
Please keep us updated. Are you still using your military one?
This is so worrying for an expensive handbag! Definitely going to be babying mine x1000 when it arrives.
Probably a really dumb idea but maybe hot glue for the time being. I think you're right, long term it needs to be soldered... Maybe take it to your local hardware store for suggestions of places to go.
I am going to try making a separate strap from matching metal chain... Which may be an option for you too. I also like this idea because I'm going to make it feasible to double it up (even length) for a shoulder bag, undone for messenger, and just a tight double up to have a shortened shoulder bag.
I'm going to def look into this, Im fine with it being different looking, I just want a useable bag! I asked HG for a replacement, it's $100 for a new strap.
Yes, it was terrible timing. I'd been up for 22 hours, was about to go through customs...and boom...straight to the ground.
I do love my military!! for some reason I've been using my AW rocco duffel a lot lately, I think I'm secretly afraid of ruining my PS's.
