I got it in grey because the other two colors were sold out but I have gotten used to the grey, but now with this special I will probably go ahead and order the black one as well. I love this bag so much because it holds everything without being heavy, it has a zipper, and it can fold down really small even slightly stuffed so you can put it in a personal item on a plane and technically pull it out as soon as you are in your seat. It also has two small pockets (the phot only shows one) vs. the regular size Pliage backpack that doesn’t have any. People rave about it for travel as well although I am not sure I would travel in a large country or city with it in fear of being pick pocketed (although the zipper is harder to manage if not in front of you). I haven’t been tempted to reach for anything else even my LV Speedy 30. I do believe this is an exclusive size to Nordstrom though, but I highly recommend it and the current Rack price is great.

ITA with your post. I don’t mention it often because I’m afraid people will ridicule me for spending over a $100 on a small nylon backpack, but I love my Longchamp Le Pliage Medium backpack. I bought it because it packed down nicely in my carry-on when we went on our pilgrimage to Lourdes/Normandy/Paris back in 2019. Once I got there, it’s the only purse I used. I liked it so much, I’ve continued using it as my everyday purse. It repels rain and snow well, it’s light and holds everything I need. I love that it’s a backpack. I’ve since purchased another color.
I’m curious about the other Le Pliage bags but I haven’t tried them. I am very interested in the Le Pliage duffle bag but dont really need it so haven’t pulled the trigger.
