"Is this Normal?" Ask about LV stitching, alignment, etc. here!

I think for as much money as we pay for LV you should think it is perfect. If you aren't happy return it. When I order I look it over like a hawk. I have read many stories of quality control issues. I bet your next one will be perfect. Good Luck!!!

Thanks for your reply! I appreciate it! I decided I'm going to keep it because the things that are slightly questionable to me are very small and don't really interfere with the overall look of the bag I was just kind of curious if what I was seeing was standard or what. It's my birthday today so I decided to take a life lesson from "Frozen" let it go and enjoy my bag!

Happy birthday! It's good to see someone embracing something for what it is rather than making a big fuss over nothing. Enjoy your beautiful bag.

Happy Birthday! Enjoy it!

Oh wow! I asked this same question in the key holder club! I exchanged my 6 key holder in store for another one which still had scratches on the hardware but not as many. The SA said it’s the nature of the piece. I do love it though, can’t stop smelling it! Was produced last week according to date code

My 6-ring key holder in fuchsia arrived today! I purchased it off the official LV website.
I noticed the buttons on my key holder are reversed in comparison to the picture on the website. Is this normal? I'm concern if I wanted to resell it in the future, it might be marked as a fake since it doesn't match the photo. Should I exchange it?
The photo of my keyholder is on the top. The photo on the website is on the bottom. Noticed how the button with the Louis Vuitton engraving is placed on the inside on mine whereas the website has the protruding snap button instead.

Hmm that's strange. Have you watched other videos on youtube, does anyone else have one like yours? If it's functional and you don't mind, keep it! But if it's going to bother you then no harm asking to exchange if you haven't used it yet and in the return period. Good luck!

Wow, that is very interesting! I just ordered one so I can’t wait to see if it’s like yours or the website.

I think that if you’re thinking you might sell it in the future you should exchange it.

Hi All,

Caved in and bought the mini pochette which, I was told by the SA, was the last one in the store. Anyway, I love it except for the fact that there seems to be gaping where the seams are supposed to be glued. This does not really bother me that much, but if it's brand new and should be in pristine condition, then I really ought to have it replaced... right?

Is this reason enough for me to return it? I have 30 days, but I'd rather use it sooner than later.

Thanks in advance!

It looks like the glazing is rubbed off. I don't see anything in regards to stitching?

Yes, there's no issue with the stitching. I'm not really familiar with the terminology used -- I just mentioned "seams" because I saw two 'flaps' meeting? LOL. I don't even know if that made sense.

Is this a very trivial thing that I can ignore or something I should take up with the store?

Thank you

I would be worried that the missing glazing could cause further damage.I would definitely bring it in and show them. I think they will either replace, refund or repair.

Appreciate your advice. I just booked an appointment to exchange the item.

Thank you!

My mini PA and normal PA are both like that. That's just how it is - I don't think they glaze that part.

You've had no problems with it?

No issues so far.




It's less noticeable on my DE PA. I think whoever sewed this one pushed the edges closer together in final construction, also the print made it hard to focus the camera to show it.
