I'm able to fold the handles inside. You can unhook the long straps, fold in the handles, than hook the long straps again. However, one of the handles can be in the way for the reach to the two inside side pockets.
+Nihomai yup yup! i've been trying that and it helps a lot! takes up a little bit of space in the bag, but whatever! it makes the bag so much more 'convenient' to carry :)
Hi! I have the same problem with you about the handle when i carry it on my shoulder. So my solution is i hook it at the Square gold instead of C shape gold(hope u understand what i meant). So the handle will be inside when u carry on ur shoulder.tq
I wish you made some modshots with this bag.. I am quite petite like you, and was wondering wether size mm would be too big and should instead go for the bb size.. ..
Hi dear, you can hook the strap in the lower buckle (the buckle lower than the one you are hooking in the video), and hook them towards outside direction. So when you lift up the bag, the handle will 'stand up' hope this can help:)
+Katleong82 I don't recommend hooking the shoulder strap to the lower buckle, to be honest. If you hook to the lower buckle, the weight will not be evenly distributed on the buckle, the weight will only be on one side of the buckle. That could cause the leather connecting the buckle to warp.
Hi , for everyday going out, shopping, running errands, meeting friends, I would recommend the MM because it is big enough to carry your essentials and a bit more. But for work / school, I'd go for the GM because it can hold much more, including larger size documents... :)
Hey, chiming in uninvited. I'm 5.9 and would only ever buy GM.. It just makes more sense, and I'm not afraid of a little weight on my left shoulder! I've never seen it in the GM though, let me know ... !
+pursejunky Thanks! I tried using the little cuff but then the strap just stuck under my armpit...and i found it hard to dig into my bag hahaha...oh well.
hey babe!! wondering if this fits a macbook air 11? i am in love with this size and leather and thinking of getting one but not too sure if it'll fit my laptop.
Hi dear, it'll be a tight fit. It fits my Ipad2 sideways, with abt 1.5inches of bag space to spare without stretching the leather. An Ipad2 is abt 9.5inch in height...so your macbook can fit snugly in the bag. If u don't mind the leather stretching a little, especially if u got other things in the bag like your wallet, book, etc, then this size will do :)
+Katleong82 wow thank you so much for the response!!! i really want the rose ballerine color but it only comes in mm as the biggest so i guess getting a neverfull and montaigne is my option!! :) i really appreciate your fast response! have a wonderful day!!!

Hi... You can turn the handles inward so they don't stick out. JerushaCouture mentioned this in her review of the Montaigne MM.

Thank you for taking the time out to do such a great I depth review am looking for a new summer bag and this helped me a lot.
This bag comes with a buckle to keep the handles together. I love this bag. I never carry water bottles in my expensive handbags! Great video!
thanks!!!!
Thanks for your honest & great review! I'm very interesting in purchasing it and this video helped a lot :)
Thanks for the update. I really like your channel and your honesty.

wisam rohilina hi dear, if u are petite , bb will be better. I feel MM can be quite big too , at times
wisam rohilina no it's not too big, am 5'2, and I like the size also the length of the strap
You can tuck those handles in if you want to carry it as a shoulder bag :)
+Mizhershe Ehsrehzim actually...i never thought of that!!! THANKS !! xoxo
+Kat L I learnt that from another person on youtube! Enjoy using your bag now :)
U can put this handles inside the bag .. it's so easy and neat and wear with the shoulder strap and handles don't come out sticking outside.
Hi dear, you can hook the strap in the lower buckle (the buckle lower than the one you are hooking in the video), and hook them towards outside direction. So when you lift up the bag, the handle will 'stand up' hope this can help:)
Hi Rose!! That's a great idea! I am going to try it :) xoxo

Is color transfer an issue with this
Hi Kat,
May I know where do you get that small little pouch? I think it's a very good idea to protect your bag from humid weather :)
Thanks for your honest review. I was also worried about safety, and I'm glad I'm not alone in my worries. :D
you're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi pls would you recommend MM or GM in this bag for everyday use

Great review! Don't you use the small cuff leather to keep the handle together? I want this in black but just couldn't find made in France
+pursejunky Thanks! I tried using the little cuff but then the strap just stuck under my armpit...and i found it hard to dig into my bag hahaha...oh well.
