Does anyone have a Strathberry bag?

Does anyone know anything about this brand?

Their bags look lovely but there is nowhere to see them in the flesh before buying (I'm in London).

Have you checked their returns policy if you order online? I've not seen any but they're rather nice looking.

You can return within 30 days but you have to pay the return postage cost which is a pain.

I have a black MC nano which I've had for a few years now (prices have gone up quite a bit since, and I expect they will again now that Meghan Markle carried one of their bags recently).

Can't really comment on CS as I loved the bag and kept it, but I'm very happy with the quality. The bag is tiny so it only gets used at weekends, but it's held up really well even when I cram stuff in. On mine the strap is removable so I swap it out sometimes which looks good, or the original black skinny strap is smarter.

Thank you blair, is the strap a shoulder strap or cross body?

I love the look of the MC nano but it does look very small as you say. I was looking at the midi tote which I think is the one MM has.

Also, is it nice quality leather?

Measurements suggest it’s only a bit bigger than an iphone plus, is that right?

@dancergirl it's a cross body. The leather is nice, quite stiff. I have read that the totes are also stiff and keep their shape well.

@RavingRoo I have never had an iPhone plus but sounds about right. I can usually squeeze in my iPhone 7, slim cardholder wallet, sunglasses (on top) and a couple of small bits like lip balm, lipstick, painkillers. There is a pocket at the back where I tuck a key and train tickets.

I have one of the Strathberry totes (a la Megan) and they're beautifully made, sturdy and roomy - would highly recommend

Thanks stylish what colour do you have? I normally go for slouchier bags, is it ok for every day?

Also do you find it heavy stylish? It says the weight is 0.8kg which seems quite heavy?

@Dancergirl this is the one I have, beautiful bag and not heavy at all (although that's compared to my Mulberry Bayswater which is 1.2kg empty) ideal for everyday, would highly recommend

Really gorgeous stylish you have convinced me! I have a birthday coming up and actually wanted another Mulberry but the one I want
is £££ and hasn't gone down in the sale. Might be nice to try a different brand, they do look like lovely bags.

I quite like the try-colour ones which are coming back into stock, but maybe a plain colour is more versatile.....

If you like Mulberry there are some excellent Facebook groups for buying/selling, try 'Mulberry swap & sell', but Strathberry is definitely worth branching out for

Thanks stylish I'm already on those FB groups but nothing has come up so far. I'm going to go for the Strathberry, just can't decide on the colour!

I had originally wanted oxblood/burgundy but I think the midi tote looks nicer in a lighter colour. Is yours a very light grey?

What do you think of this colour?:

That's beautiful!

It is lovely but it's quite summery and I'm wondering how much use I'll get out of it.

Maybe I should get the plain pearl grey...?

I like a bit of colour but the pearl would suit any occasion :)

Hey did you ever get the bag? I see they have a great shop in London and Edinburgh and also free returns within the uk.

What was your thoughts on Strathberry

A colleague of mine has their Tote, it's very nicely made and very roomy.

They have a great returns policy I am also informed they know have a shop in Edinburgh and London
