Just got my LP Cuir Black in small size. Noticed that the leather feels a bit different compared to my LP Cuir Lemon Yellow Medium even though they are both made in china. The small one is softer. Is it normal like that? I love them both tho.. I need to stop looking for another cuir.. I need to.. hiks..


Yes it's normal. I've wondered about the difference too. I've been to the store recently and checked out the new colors. The green, yellow, blue are stiffer and more matte, while the new red, mocha are softer and has a bit of gloss. I prefer the latter. Which do you prefer?

Also, I've seen the certain colors come in 2 different leathers as well. I've seen the camel being sold at the store; older one was smooth, the newer one was stiffer. Also with rouge red.
 
I think it's normal for different colors/seasons to feel a bit different. I have one that's very soft and another that's a bit stiffer.

aah.. nice to know that it's actually like that.

I too prefer the latter.. the gloss gives the bag a different shade depending of the light. While the matte color leather just look more flat. Although at the same time it does work better for the bright color, such as the lemon yellow. :D

Hi,

Does anyone know which red is this? I don't think it was rouge, is there any other type of red?
Thanks in advance for your helps😊😊

How quick are they on shipping?

Beautiful colour :) I have just bid on a small camel colour cuir should be delivered Wednesday am v excited I have a few nylon le pilages but this will be the first leather !!! Hope I like it

Camel is nice too! I would have ordered it if I didn't have another bag in the same colour. Anyhoo, my order from gilt arrived today! The size is just perfect since I'm only 4'10" ;) I'll post pic soon.
 
the bag from gilt arrived today! that was fast! it came with original tags and dust bag. I noticed on the label though, the color is "myrtille" instead of the gilt advertised "bilberry" - not really familiar with the longchamp colours but are those two different? Looks the same to me.


Myrtille is the French word for Bilberry. The labels usually have the colour in French.

Can you post a picture of the bag? Is the color in real life, like the pictures on Gilt?
