Ladies keep me posted!! Lol. BC I do agree and yet I love the bag so much. So far mine is NOT peeling - it was more patches of dullness. That I could live with if it's uniform. But peeling/shedding, I cannot live with.
But it's soooooo cute, lol.

I check mine all the time. One day someone is going to catch me doing it and think I'm crazy. She can't peel...she just can't!!!

We're like "Stay with me, stay with me... we can do this. Keep your skin on, hang in there girl!" #CrazyBagLadies
I have checked mine and it seems fine. Mine was made in USA. I love the bag so hoping it doesn't have to be returned. I'm actually probably the one person out there that doesn't like the reverse so I pray my infourage has no issues
I cannot stop looking at this!!! I need this mini digital blue Pochette in my life! [emoji170][emoji170][emoji170][emoji170]
You gotta be kidding me... I was praying... PRAYING we were in the clear. I can't even bring myself to go inspect [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24]
I hate to say this, but I am just not surprised. I have the dora as well as a custom hard piece in the original infrarouge. There is a big difference in the look and especially the feel of the canvas. The black is much deeper and the red is much brighter and solid on the new infrarouge. The black is more matte and the red is distressed in the older version. There were absolutely no issues with the older version so I do not know why they changed it.

Nooooo how awful. I wouldn't take a chance with this bag. Mine arrived directly from LV peeling !!!

I have no idea what to do. I dont know if I should keep the bag to see if it gets worse? If I should just call it a day a demand a credit to get a new bag? Could it just be that one spot? Is it going to continue shedding like an Anaconda in the jungle?
Thanks for posting the pics I can totally see the difference in finishes. Seems like maybe LV needs to stay away from glossy finished canvas they clearly havent got a clue what they are doing.
Now I'm afraid to use mine[emoji30]
I just checked it but this seems nuts for $2k I have to check my bag everyday after use. I'm wondering if they are realizing the issue and trying to fix it before they make more because it's been 2 weeks or more since it's been available to order online but the reverse is readily available to order.

I only have taken mine out three times and those times it was barley out so even if you do not really use it, it will still have a chance of happening. LV must realize something is wrong by now, I would hope so anwyay. It it crazy to spend 2k on a bag like this and yes I am one of those people who think a 2k bag should have better quality than a 50 dollar bag. I bought a bag from Express for 60 bucks on black friday and not a problem! This infrarouge has turned into a big inrfradud
My bag did not have this on it yesterday but today it did. It literally happened overnight. My grandmother use to tell me nothing good happens at night, my bag is peeling overnight, fine lines and pimples always seem to pop up overnight night, grandma was right.
