So I was at the gucci flagship store today with my mom and she wanted to purchase the new "GG running medium tote" in black leather priced at around $1900. I wouldn't say that my mom is picky, but she likes to inspect any handbag she buys for flaws etc. So as she was looking at the bag, she found that the stitching(thread) on the handles were coming off. The sales even offered to cut it off for her. For a premium brand and a handbag at such a price, shouldn't it be better than that? I understand that not all bags are perfect and there are sometimes little flaws no matter what brand it is. However, overall I still think that LV still has a better quality.
You might say that this is just one incident. However, I remember my girlfriend had to return a gucci clutch because the threads on there were all fuzzy and unevenly sewed. The leather even has tiny scratches on it. She finds that most of her gucci bags don't stand well in time as her LV or Chanel bags. Also, I've heard of many quality issues with gucci customers in the past on the internet as well.
Now don't get me wrong, I love Gucci and own quite a few items from them. However, I just feel that their products are not consistently maintained in high quality. Some are perfect, some are not. This is making me a little disappointed and iffy about it because I really love this brand. I just hope they would be more strict and pay attention to these little quality details.
Any thoughts on this?
