Anyone have one of those Longchamp Le Pliage bags?

Like this? Are they any good? Can you shove lots of crap stuff into them without them breaking? I have been contemplating getting one for a while now.

Yes I've got one. I use it quite a lot, but it is expensive for what it is - a shopping bag of polyester material with a leather handle. There is only one tiny separate compartment, no phone compartment/pens compartments etc. so stuff can get very jumbled up. I use a small leather handbag as well, which I put inside the bag and keep my purse, phone, credit cards, pen, lippy etc in there.

I stick a medium size one in my (totally full) suitcase and when I buy stuff on holiday/trips I put handbag plus assorted items in it and bring back as hand luggage. Its durable enough to take quite a few items and doesn't look as daft as a carrier bag.

They are good, and much copied. They sell well on eBay, better than the Longchamp leather bags, oddly enough.
Herve Chapelier bags are good too.

Thank you ladies.
