How closely does this replica Noé MM follow the original in construction?
Pattern pieces are cut on a CNC press mapped from an authentic Noé, then edge-painted in four ultra-thin coats for a seamless finish. Stitch density averages seven stitches per inch, and each metal eyelet is pull-tested with a twelve-kilogram load to confirm it will not tear the Epi leather. Bags that miss even one quality target are set aside rather than repaired.
What materials and hardware are used on the Epi version?
The body is full-grain calf leather pressed with the signature Epi cross-grain and drum-dyed champagne beige so the ridges stay colour true if scratched. Interior lining is blush microfibre suede for a soft touch. Drawstring tips, D-rings, and slider buckles are solid brass plated in high-gloss palladium, while the detachable Monogram zip pouch is coated canvas lined in pebble leather.
How much can the thirty-three by twenty-seven by twenty centimetre bucket hold and how does it carry?
Usable volume measures about fourteen litres, enough for a fifteen inch laptop, water bottle, wallet, and cosmetic bag with room to spare. The leather shoulder strap adjusts from sixty to one hundred ten centimetres, letting the bag rest at waist or hip on wearers up to one point nine metres tall. Empty weight is roughly eight hundred grams, making it comfortable for daily city travel.
What is the best way to care for Epi leather in a light tone?
Brush off surface dust with a soft nylon bristle after each outing. Treat scuffs by gently rubbing with a cotton swab dipped in distilled water and pH-neutral soap, always following the grain. Condition the leather twice a year with a colour-free balm to maintain flexibility and finish with a UV-protective spray to prevent fading. Store upright, loosely stuffed with acid-free tissue, inside the supplied dust bag, away from prolonged direct sunlight.
What arrives in the delivery box?
Your Noé ships in a rigid sandstone-coloured presentation box lined with blush tissue and secured by latte ribbon. Inside you will find a cotton dust sleeve, detachable Monogram canvas pouch, microfiber wipe, tri-fold care booklet, and NFC authenticity card. Each eyelet, buckle, and ring is protected with low-tack film so the bag reaches you pristine and ready for gifting.
