Had this happened to anyone else's NeoNoe?

Someone recently posted about the same happening to their Neo Noe but here was a lot worse. I have a Neo Noe as well but purchased in July so haven’t seen any of this lately. Is yours Made in the USA? Or Made in France? I think the other poster said she bought hers in the US, I’m wondering if this could be a problem with bags made there?
 
When did you buy it, and how often do you use the bag?
I bought one epi neonoe recently, and the glazing is not perfect. I noticed minor scratches on the glazing in the store, but otherwise the bag was perfect. I felt it would not impact the use and just took it home, because i love it so much and didn't want to wait. After seeing all the glazing issues here, I'm a little worried on the durability. Well,, at least LV should be able to fix it for you!! Let us know what they say.
 
If LV says no or charges an arm and a leg, this would be an easy DIY fix with some leather glue from Rocky Mountain Leather Supply.

It's top notch quality.You don't need a lot. Just put some on a tiny brush (like from a craft store) and secure with a close pin until dry.

If you're feeling really ambitious, they also sell the same paints used by Hermes for their glazed edges. You could touch up the glazing yourself.

I repair and make bags so I've used all these products myself.
 
Depending on how new it is, I’d ask them to replace it. My Sarah Compact wallet (which is not even 2 years old) started separating like this too. I took it in and they said they couldn’t reglaze it because it would bleed into the canvas and ruin the wallet [emoji53] there isn’t anything else I can do about it, therefore I’d have them seriously replace it!!!!! Once it separates like that, it’s hard to reglaze. But I could be wrong ‍♀️

Mine is made in USA. I'm guessing this is going to turn up more and more like the metis. I hope not.

Thanks for letting me know....I'm going to try for a replacement!

Thanks for this resource! I've got some old funky pieces that are in need of some love- I'm going to try the glue, and the glazing paint!

My Neonoe was purchased 6/2018 in Spain. Made in Italy, no issues. I wonder too if its only the Neonoe's made in USA. Hopefully, its not going to be a repeat like the Metis. Major bummer. This is a great handbag.
