hi _mimo_ , mine is same as yours & mandasari
but the sides/corners wore out fast, i've only been using few months and the color faded, more like it wore off and you can see the inner layer
:( upset. i thought it would be a better leather. the coach bag that I have, cost lesser but better quality
anyone have this problem? is my bag defective?

hi plain.jane. :smile1:

My gun metal also have worn out edges maybe because it actually bumps to rough surfaces. Have you tried applying leather conditioner on it? It will help to retain its color. Im using ALDO leather conditioner. :smile1:
 
Small le pliage cuirs are on sale for $343!!

Longchamp.com has sandy, navy, sun and the coral/orange color.

Bloomies has Bordeaux, gunmetal and fir.

Hope everyone can add one to their collection- I added a sandy
 
Did Longchamp discontinue the Le Pliage Cuir Clutch - the one with the rope handle? I am fallen in love with this bag and would love to get more colors. Magnums and WhatSheBuys websites carry them, but in somewhat limited colors. Hoping to get one before they are all gone. Thanks.

ok, i will take your advice & try to apply the leather conditioner.
but i doubt it will help much, i reckon the material is kinda thin and not purely leather. kinda sad of this bag's quality. i've purchased some high street brands, with authentic leather label, have last much longer than this.
 
It's so nice! It might be better in leather as the ends won't be easily torn off. However, I agree that perhaps it needs to be seen in person first as it's a bit pricey as compared to other lines of longchamp bags.
 
Thank you for all your discussions on Le Pliage Cuir, that helped me find my own very first small red. Here is my quick reveal :p and I made sure that this one is made in France. xxx

when i first saw le pliage cuir online, i thought it was a lazy move on longchamp's part since it was basically the same design as the original le pliage but in a different material. But now that i've seen one in person and felt how soft the leather was, i want one! but i recently but an Au Sultan satchel, so i'm going to wait a bit before i buy another longchamp.
