Louis Vuitton MultiPochette aka Scam Bag

[EmmJay]

I have not used my MP yet and am debating if I should keep it....does anyone put their phone in the smaller Pochette? I’m feeling like it’s too much /too heavy for the bag to put more than some make up items in the smaller Pochette especially if only using the gold chain and not the crossbody strap. Is this anyone else’s experience?

I use the smaller Pochette for my phone. I use the larger Pochette for my AirPods, car key fob, epi pen, key pouch for my cards, lip gloss, and nail file. The items in the larger pouch are my daily essentials. I put cash in my RCP.

I actually love it for the sole purpose of separating my phone from the rest of my goods since my phone constantly is in and out of whatever I'm carrying. I keep my phone in the smaller pochette and my wallet/lipgloss/key fob in the larger. I don't like to put coins in the coin pouch so I put my earbuds in there.

Interestingly enough, the smaller pochette is the only piece I have been using lately, haha. I definitely put my phone it! I love it for running quick errands. I put my phone, my cardholder that also holds my keys, and (sometimes) my airpods. My airpods make the bag pretty stuffed, but I don't mind if I am going grocery shopping or something like that. I will also note, that I have been using the smaller pochette with my monogram strap as opposed to the chain. I will probably use the chain when I am going out for the evening. TBH, the smaller pochette is probably my favorite piece on the MP!

I am loving mine! I tend to keep the RCP attached to the 2 pouches also. I alternate between using one pouch, and adding the second when i need to carry a couple of extra things. Switching up straps is fun too. Overall, its such a fun and awesome piece and so easy to carry. I love that I can toss the pouches that are carrying my basics, into my NF or a larger bag when more space is needed.

That sounds great! Having other straps makes it seem like getting a new purse more often

Does anyone notice their multipochette bags having zipper that is not smooth? Mine require two hands, versus on my Eva the zipper is smooth.
I wonder if it’s the design or if it just is too new?
My Alma BB has a zipper that is not too smooth, but I feel the round shape would make it that way.

Its the same with the Pochette Double Zip! Are they using zippers with smaller teeth now because items I purchased 2 years ago have the better wider teeth zips (even my key cles)

Hi! I noticed this with mine the first week of use. It’s fine now. I’m all about that one hand life.

Thanks for letting me know I agree about the one hand!

Can’t find the post but someone else mentioned a stiff zipper, have you tried the wax paper trick yet? Running wax paper on the zipper teeth?

Thank you! I will try that. I wasn’t sure if it was the way they made the zipper or not.

Wow, I’m not sure what size the zippers are, but hopefully through use and wax paper it can get smoother.

Ok, I think I solved the zipper problems

Last night on this forum I was looking up zippers not running smoothly, and the wax was mentioned- but so was pencil lead! I had no idea.
Today I tried the pencil lead- since I don’t have wax paper- and it is a miracle!
I tried on a couple of older bags first. I tried on my black Alma BB since that one was the worst. Fixed it right away! Then tried on my Speedy B- worked beautifully. Then, I tried it with my Gucci disco bag- which was always a pain to zip- AMAZING!
So, I would definitely try this.
* I would be careful on light colored bags
* I wiped the zipper off afterwards to get any remaining lead marks off the zipper.

Yikes. My guess is someone walked in two seconds later and said “I don’t give a damn, I’ll take it.” Sad to hear though, I hope the second batch isn’t even worse since they may be rushing production due to demand.

I don’t understand why the CA showed a bag with quality issues to a client. This makes no sense.

I’ve had this happen with a Kirigami set shipped to store before, they agreed with me right away that it was defective (peeling glazing) but I honestly think they didn’t notice, or didn’t care.. thinking I would just take it.

Did you run the lead over the zippers as if you were “coloring” on them?

Hi Yes, I just wrote on them and ran the pencil up and down the zipper. Not very hard though. I was nervous, so I did it gingerly. I started on a older bag, just in case something weird happened. But it didn’t

Their qualiy has gone down over the past couple of years! Not good enough LV, I pay for quality!!

Stiff, stuck zippers should not get past Quality Control. LV were famous for their butter smooth zips, I have purchased items in the past just for the zippers!
