Hi everyone, I'm new and hoping to get some help here :p So I just got my medium navy and wondering if it's authentic (got it from a local online shop in indonesia).

The reason why I'm questioning the authenticity:
- I got large dustbag (my sister got a nice small dustbag for hers, she bought hers in europe)
- the color... is it true that LC's navy differs each season? Mine is greyish navy. I was hoping for a happy navy lol (as in a brighter, maybe closer to indigo navy? not sure how to explain the color)
- can anyone tell me how to read the code on the plastic tag? what is the code for navy?

thanks a bunch

hi all, i need help. My husband purchased le pliage cuir bag for me, size Medium in hong kong a month ago. As i had just returned to Singapore, i found that the bag is a tad too big for me and wished to exchange it for small size. any idea if this can be done? I called the stores and they told me the exchange period is 7 days and advised me to write to the customer service instead..

They are very strict in Asia as far as returns and exchanges are concerned. Try emailing longchamp through their website. They might be able to help.

Hi everyone! I'm new to Longchamp, I've been eyeing on Le pliage cuir for a while. Will it be a good bag to carry a laptop? I have a 15" macbook pro retina, which I need to carry once in a while to school. If I put it in a sleeve, will it be ok or will it sag the bag? If you think it's good, which size would you recommend? Thanks a lot

New colors for Le Pliage Cuir Spring 2015! There usually are 8 colors, so these 4 plus the classic black and camel... makes 6! I saw a dark hot pink (could have been red) on the runway that is not pictured. I am hoping for a bright aqua blue! :smile1:

I wouldn't personally put very heavy stuff in mine, as I feel the leather is too thin, but that's just me. I baby my le pliage cuirs.

I've got 3 of the Cuir range - 1 x large handbag, and 2 x tote bag. I used one of the totes every day for uni, carrying heavy text books and my laptop. It shows no signs of damage or stress from the heavy load. I would say you'd need the tote to carry a 15" laptop, it fits in there easily with room for files, wallet, makeup bag etc. I don't think it would fit in any of the shoulder bags.

Thank you for response goldfish19! This is what I thought too. I still like this style, I might get it for general purpose:)

The opening of the medium LP cuir is about 16" but I am not sure if it will look okay with a laptop inside. You can try the large size. And maybe buy a darker color if you are going to use it daily with a laptop. I used a yellow colored one and after a day I saw a scratch. fortunately it's at the back of the bag.

I travel between the US and Europe at least 4+ times a year. Thinking about getting the medium le cuir as my carry-on bag for transatlantic flights. Would this be a good choice for a carry-on purse (not as my "main" carry-on, but rather my purse)?

I usually have my 13" macbook pro laptop, an e-reader, headphones, makeup bag, wallet and passport in my purse for travel.

also, how super purple-y is the bilberry color? I have some samsonite suitcases that are pretty dark purple, wondering *how* dark the bilberry is IRL? thanks!

I think it's a great carry on purse. It's very light!

The bilberry is more of a plum shade. Very dark and gorgeous in person. Try google or eBay to see more photos.

Thank you ladies for replies. I guess a darker color will work better. All the measurements are different on various websites so I was confused. I'm leaning towards medium for everyday use, if it doesn't fit the laptop, I'll get a more structure tote like Prada.
