I was lucky enough to snag an MP with the rose strap and am anxiously awaiting delivery. I was at the LV store yesterday and my SA told me I had made a mistake in getting the pink because it will get dirty quickly and there is no cleaning it. And they don’t recommend treating with scotch guard.

1. has anyone treated their nylon strap?
2. Is there no cleaning or even dry cleaning just the strap?
3. Is there color transference?

She recommended I return the pink and be put on her list for the kaki. And I’m like no way I’m a pink girl all the way!

And I’m never going back to her. I’ll just keep ordering bags online. She rolled her eyes at me when I mentioned concerns about pochette Métis I had purchased.

I know what the SA meant but she could've handled it nicely instead of being snarky about it I guess. I have a pink Tumi backpack that is very similar to rose clair color. The straps do get and look dirty overtime and for the MPA, since it has vachetta on each end, it'll be challenging to clean without either messing up the quality of the vachetta and any dirt, rips, and tears on the strap will look very obvious on rose clair. I'm also a pink girl but I got the kaki strap because I rather keep the overall aesthetic of the bag looking pristine. But since you love rose clair, you can always check with LV for the replacement of the strap.

I was expecting the pilling or fuzziness from wear. That’s normal. And no kids with pb&j fingers to worry about. I was thinking I would get the strap dry cleaned if it was ever mortally dirtied

And you can definitely scotch guard a nylon strap. Since you said you love pink, I think you should keep it for sure. It’ll be fine. And congrats on your MP!

Ok, so I am still wanting this bag (not the upcoming men's version) and it seems it is permanently out of stock (gave up my exhausting stalking effort).

Can someone explain how Fashionphile has so many - several new - in stock? It is looking to me that somehow they used their Neiman Marcus association to secure some of them and then mark up the price?

They are re-sellers! They are people who buy bags just to sell them, don't do it!

They were available for almost 15 minutes in the 8pm hour. And again in the 11pm hour. Usually if available it’s only for about 15-30 seconds each time. If you’re not part of the stalking thread I highly recommend. I’ve been able to find every HTF bag I’ve wanted within a few days to a week (at most) of stalking.

If you still have it in your cart don’t take it out. Login and refresh from your cart. It’ll increase your chance of getting it next time, as it’s one less step you’ll need to take. I hope you’re able to get it soon!

I did take it out I tried refreshing a few times when it was in the cart and when that didn’t work ...I tried adding it again and lost it! I actually have one with the kaki strap but I really want a pink! Thanks for your help!
