Longevity of print on LV bags

[Hkgirlinlondon]

Hello all, I would really appreciate your view on the longevity of the special prints on monogram canvas... I have bought the LVxYK pumpkin Speedy 20 bag. I love the bag but I am planning to use it daily with running errands and doing school runs...I just wondered whether the pumpkin prints will eventually fade/peel off with time?

I know it’s not the same but this is a murakami wallet I used every. Single. Day. From 2006 to 2021 (when I switched to a mini wallet). You can see that the prints are fading but unlike a bag, this is a wallet that was rubbed against everything and anything in a bag for 15 years so I am quite impressed by how well it has held up. I thought all prints would be gone within 5 years. I know kusama prints are different but I’m wondering if they are even more durable since they are “thicker” from what I see?

I have a Monogramouflage Speedy from 2008 and haven’t had any issues with the print wearing off, but it’s not an everyday bag for me. I haven’t had any issues with the print wearing off any of my LE screen-printed SLGs either. I think if you’re reasonably careful you should have no problems.
