Every time I watch one of your videos it makes me want to buy a bag from Polene, but I can't stop thinking about the increasing amount of comments I'm reading about their decline in quality in recent years since they started becoming more popular. Maybe their sales grew so much that they can't keep manufacturing so many bags with the quality they once used to. I don't know. Like I said, I've been hearing this more and more and it honestly worries me. I don't know if perhaps I should invest first on other brands that make their bags in Spain like Guibert or Strathberry.

People have different experience. My polene bag just arrived 2 days ago after long waiting of 1 month. And i love it, it quality is there. People say the leather is stiff, but it's not. It's soft but still enough to hold it's structure. The grain is beautiful. The edging is great. I bought it from Polene official online store in Taobao (China's online marketplace). It's very good quality. Before buying i also very scared of the horrible things people experienced. But i still love the design and want to try in hope i get the good quality.

I haven't had a chance to own this bag because of my friend's bad experience with it. First of all, the bag arrived with such a chemical smell, as if she ordered it from AliExpress for 5 euros, which you would never expect from luxury brands. The bag also came with oil stains and bad stitches. I remember seeing my friend's face after paying almost 400 euros for the bag. She didn't want to deal with returning it because Polène's customer support was not helpful; they blamed the delivery for the stains, claiming the bag was sent in good shape. My friend used the bag with heavy items, and the stitches started coming out after 5 months. Although the bag has a very good design, I believe the designers lack some technical engineering skills as the bag started getting loose and the structured shape changed over time. For the price, I really believe it's not a timeless piece and will be out of fashion in a couple of years as TikTok hypes up different bags. Although I love this channel, I feel there are many videos involving Polène, and this seems more like a marketing activity than an unbiased review. Tanner didn’t even criticize the brand that much when he found plastic in its leather and still said this is a good deal?? whereas he would make a big deal out of it for other brands and I really believe he works either closely with this brand or as he mentioned in the video he has friends in Spain where Polène bags are made.

Have you done your research on Polène recently? They are getting A LOT of pushback. They have upped their prices twice in the last year of about +25% while crawling under complaints of their quality getting worse and worse, bags falling apart within months. They also have notoriously terrible customer support now. Many people in the handbag community are now staying away from the brand, despite sometimes owning and loving older models. I think it is extremely unfair to make a video in such a positive light of a brand that is currently being talked about a lot in such a negative way by the community.

I find Polene’s quality has gone down hill. I had the bag you reviewed, and I think the bag is worth less than $100. I am curious why you give Polene so much credit for design but not the other fashion houses? With the big luxury fashion houses, yes you are definitely paying for the name, but they are setting the design trends, they must spend a fortune on design and prototypes.

Absolutely, actually the main cost of a new bag is the time to design and perfect it through prototypes and iterations. That's why I refuse custom work requests as it would be insanely expensive to do all that for just a single product. But for brands that cost is bearable as they sell many of the design

Love your videos as always! ❤ As a tip, try cutting the hardware with pliers, if it cuts easily then it's probably cheap zinc alloy like many brands. You will also see the silvery inside and see it's very soft metal. If it's really really hard or almost impossible to cut through, it's good quality. If impossible to cut, try sanding deeply. From the color you can check whether it's brass (golden) or stainless steel (silver) or iron (darker). You can also check with a magnet before cutting. If it's magnetic it's probably iron and that doesn't last because it rusts. I would LOVE to see your testing regarding hardware as most brands don't specify at all their hardware materials and we as consumers are so confused 😔

I just had a terrible experience with Polène. I am happy with their leather, but the actual crafts of stitching and overall construction were a bit disappointing. Probably due to poor quality control. I was doubting many online negative comments about the issue but unfortunately I experienced the same. Still haven’t gotten my refund yet, took many many emails to get a return label. So be aware. I do like their design so was a little disappointed. Hope the brand matures.

Really like your videos! Not sure if you have done a video dissection with the brand Hammitt. I live in SoCal and they are a SoCal brand of really lovely leather bags. They started in 2008. They are family owned and very closely involved in their business from what I can tell. They care tremendously about their customers. Their customer service and guarantee on their goods is fantastic. They have a hearty fan base too. I own a few of their leather bags and what appealed to me at first, since I had never heard of them until 2023, was how soft & supply the leather was. The rivet signature design of theirs is also lovely. I hope you get to do a video on them as i am curious to have your thoughts as a customer. Please keep doing a great job Mr. Tanner.

I don't like their textured leather. They had smooth leather before, which had less plastic. I still have a piece from early ages which was high quality. I tried to order smooth leather numero uno in fall 2023 but stitching was off. Magnetic flap was not horizontally aligned. When I talked to support they said they don't see the issue(which sounds to me that the quality is not that great anymore). Still I was able to return it and receive a refund. But they haven't returned the shipping fee of $20. I hoped for it because it was not my fault. Anyways, until further changes I will not buy from them. Sad that they built a good thing and then lowered that quality that is not available anymore.

I was going to order a Polene bag but watched some youtube videos about the quality going down i.e. hardware falling off and will hold off until I visit the Tokyo store in a few months. Also, they have really bad online customer service from doing my research. You mentioned that LV has good hardware but I've stopped buying from them because the zippers and hardware are so bad nowadays. Compare an old LV bag from 15 years ago and you will notice that they were once heavier and more substantial. LV is using some weird alloy nowadays that makes their bags feel cheap.

Remember, we love full grain leather because real leather do not crack and peel or melt into goopy mess. It is not only to enjoy the natural beauty of cow hide. Say no top thick plastic coating. Leather should not come with platic. Otherwise it will be the worst material. Rare conditioning can make properly tanned leather survive decades. Not so with flaky plastic goop.
@tanner.leatherstein
@tanner.leatherstein 8 ай бұрын
I love natural leather grain as well and having difficulty staying unbiased against heavier finishes. But I also came to realize that the fashion customers need a protective finish to prevent scratches and provide easy cleaning. They don't want patina. It is understandable from their standpoint and I try to evaluate products in their own category and from their audiences point of view. If you ask me the real leather is the one that has the aniline and a thin layer of topcoat that will scratch and patina to turn into an aged beauty with use...

I have watched the video and sad to hear that there are increasing amounts of bad experiences about the brand. Especially the customer service issues make it worse as quality issues may happen as long as the CS help to resolve them its understandable. But also, I felt like the video was quite heavily biased to show a negative narrative as some of the arguments were not objective and completely ignoring Polene's majority happy customers. And accusing the brand of maximizing profit by opening 2 new stores in the expense of quality. That felt like a stretchy assumption to make the story wrap up by force. So, I would recommend checking more content from other parties as well and making your own decision. But I will take a closer look into these bad experiences to understand it better...

Thank you for your comment. I gave credit to all brands as I understand how much work goes into designing and perfecting a new bag. I do it myself so I am well aware. And any brand in this business they have that expense. But Polene's designs are truly unique and time consuming, I don't think they are putting any less effort than major fashion houses. But unfortunately sometimes trends are set by major houses not because they design the best stuff, because they have the heaviest name and budgets to show it off. And that creates a glamour and perception of high fashion. Cyme bag being worth less than $100 is not a fair judgement from any perspective of leather craft.

I always wanted a Nano number 1 polene bag and it used to be like $280 when I first thought of buying it. I told myself I would save but by the time I saved the money it was $380! So I gave up! I would not pay more than $350 for a bag and now theyre almost $500! I dont buy bags often, I like to have one brown or black bag and use every day for years. These prices to me are now unattainable luxury instead of a quality investment.

I love my Cyme mini! I carried it for 2-3 months straight with no issues and it still looks brand new. It sucks to hear that some people haven’t had good experiences because my experience has been great. Thanks for sharing more information on the brand’s origins 🖤

Is there any brand, making bags for men like POLÈNE? Somewhat affordable with quality leather?

Can you review some Indian made leather bag, like The Chesterfield Brand? It is Netherland's, but made in India. I am curious if their bags are vegetable tanned.

Polene only offers this (also my least favorite) leather for the Numero Un Nano size and the Cyme. I like their smooth and grained leathers. My guess is they can't source enough of the quality leathers for their most popular bags, but I'm happy with what bags I've bought from Polene.

I bought another bag from them after two years, the packaging has changed, even the dust bag wasnt as impressive and the bag seemed smaller.. and then the price went up. I got the the nano uno tri color, at 280£ and the quality was so good but now that i purchased the same style but got the sandalwood, the quality isnt as nice.. the packaging is just not even as luxurious as it was 2 years ago.. idk.. im just sad polene isnt the same polene two years ago

Love my Polene bags but with the Cyme you reviewed here I found that the leather was so very different. Had a beautiful shape at first, then became softer with every use and the bag just collapsed in itself after a while. To keep at least some of the shape I needed a liner, which is not ideal for a bag that is already 2lbs weight. 😢I wish they would remake this bag in a different leather. This is the Polene that looks as if it was made to be warhorse- the travel with me everywhere bag- but it unfortunately just went flat. There are some youtube 6 month/1yr reviews that show this clearly. How do you feel about Polene being able to meet the massive demand that they are experiencing? Unless the production has expanded immensely, the service or quality likely has to suffer, no matter how hard they work?

Ayo if I’m honest could you do a review on Argentina’s leather industry. They are notorious for their meat, and everything related to cows really ahah. I believe they might have good leather, but only if it’s worth it. Well it’s just a suggestion, let me know if it’s a good space for quality leather because I wouldn’t like to live on with a misconception ahaha

If Polene cannot maintain quality for each & every bag, they should at least increase the customer service capacity.

What would you recommend to darken a backpack with Horween Veg Tan Essex Leather! without ruining the leather!!!!!I was looking at the description of the bag and it mentioned that the leather was slightly bleached so I was hoping I could tan the leather a bit more if possible.

This bag can change the look of the bag through magnets at both ends, but if it is modified frequently, the cowhide can wear out, so I think it was designed with plastic leather
