Polène Mini Bags: Micro, Nano and Mini Compared
Polène uses three words for small: Micro, Nano and Mini. They are not consistent across models, so a Cyme Mini is much bigger than a Numéro Neuf Mini. This guide lists every small Polène by its real size, from a 10 cm Micro that hangs around the neck to a 33 cm Cyme Mini that takes a wallet.
Key facts
- Numéro Un Micro: 10 x 10 x 5 cm, 120 cm strap.
- Numéro Dix Micro: 11 x 15 x 5.5 cm, 40 to 50 cm strap.
- Numéro Un Nano: 20.5 x 17 x 9 cm, 132 cm strap.
- Numéro Neuf Mini: 14 x 22 x 12.5 cm, 98 cm strap.
- Mokki Mini: 13.5 x 27 x 8 cm.
- Cyme Tote Nano: 25.5 x 20 x 9 cm.
- Cyme Mini: 22 x 33 x 13 cm.
- Note: the Numéro Un Mini is no longer listed by Polène; the Micro and Nano continue.
Micro: a charm that holds cards
The Micros are the size of a card holder. The Numéro Un Micro, 10 cm square, holds cards, a key and a lipstick, and its 120 cm strap lets you wear it around the neck. The Numéro Dix Micro, made from upcycled offcuts, is often clipped to a larger bag. Neither takes a phone.
Nano: the smallest bag for a phone
The Numéro Un Nano is the smallest Polène that holds a large phone, with keys, cards and a lipstick. It keeps the folds and half-moon flap of the original Numéro Un, the house’s first design, and has a back pocket. Coveti has 30 on 13 October 2026, $692 to $909.
Mini: three very different sizes
The Numéro Neuf Mini (22 cm wide) and the Mokki Mini (27 cm wide) are small evening and weekend bags. The Cyme Mini, at 33 cm wide, is a mid-size tote that takes a wallet and a water bottle. Read the dimensions, not the name.
A quick capacity test
Before you buy a small bag, lay out what you actually carry: phone, cards, keys, lip balm, sunglasses. If that includes a full wallet and sunglasses in a case, skip the Micros and the Nano and look at the Mokki Mini and the Cyme Mini. If it is a phone and a card holder, the Nano and the Neuf Mini are enough, and they are easier to wear all day.
Styling a small bag
Small bags look best when they contrast with the outfit in scale: a Numéro Un Nano with a long coat, a Mokki Mini with wide trousers. Carry the minis by the handle for evening and wear them crossbody in the day. A Micro clipped to a tote adds a second colour without a second bag.
Which small Polene to buy
For dinners and events: the Numéro Un Nano. For hands-free travel: the Numéro Neuf Mini. For a structured small bag that still takes a wallet: the Mokki Mini. For a charm: a Micro. For more on charms, see Polène bag charms and accessories.
