Does anyone have a Polène #1 or #8?

[PurpleHydrangeas]

And if so, are you happy with the quality?

TIA!

I have #1 nano and it's been brilliant so far

@toucaninjapan I’m thinking of getting the Nano, what colour did you get and leather type?

@Nolosomi this one

I’ve got a #1 and a #1 nano - latter is burgundy leather, former terracotta/orangey leather and suede mix. Love the quality - #1 is now a few years old and has been a bit of a work horse but still looks great, even the suede flap which I was a little bit unsure about when I got it. I like the fact it’s understated and still a bit unusual so you don’t see everyone wearing them.

Quality really good. Mine are a couple of years old. I have 3 different styles, 2 of which get a lot of wear for work. They still look new. On par with my mulberry.

I have a #no 1 as my everyday bag and it looks great still and v stylish.

@SCH20 - what can you fit in the nano? I'm looking for something to fit phone and cards

Sorry I was looking at the micro, not the nano

@toucaninjapan thank you - it’s lovely!

The one in the pic looks like a fake, just FYI if you are looking at secondhand options rather than buying from Polene direct. The leather and shape just doesn't look quite right.

@ferretface I got mine from Polene. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Don't know what you mean about the leather, but the bag shape changes whether you open inner buttons on it or not. Mine are open here

Sorry for only coming back to this now and many thanks for everyone’s posts. Sounds promising, will order once I‘ve decided which one to get.

Special thanks to toucan for the picture you posted - that would also be my favourite colour for the #1, so really helpful and it looks lovely!
