Hello, all!

I am a huge lover of black, red and silver, and so when I first saw infrarouge in 2020 I became absolutely enamored and have wanted to collect the pochette metis for a long time. Recently, I bought one in excellent condition from Fashionphile, but it came to me not as described- lots of glazing cracks and there were irrepairable canvas cracks in the problem areas.

I know this canvas is extremely thick, almost plasticy- not like standard canvas, and that the glazing and cracking issues have been a problem with it. Is there any hope of owning a PM in infrarouge that won't crack instantly? Is there any particular way to prevent canvas cracking? Just curious if anyone else collects this discontinued piece and if you have any advice! I have seen several listed but all of them have glazing issues stated.
