Those pictures are a bit jarring; an elegant outfit and shoes with an edgy casual bag
ITA. Obviously, Ghesquière has had no better ideas since 2001 (even that was a copy of a 1970s bag). I like the City better, it didn't need a logo for brand recognition and is altogether more relaxed.
The leather looks very interesting, I like the 'pixel' lambskin, especially in the grey which magnifies the texture.
LV got rid of their coolest bag (Sofia Coppola). Why don't they just reissue it?
The bag is just not a natural fit for LV (and I say that with LV RTW in my wardrobe).
I feel like so many bags just seem like slightly different copies of other ones
Fashion is eating itself
I just think the structured (mini/small) bag has been around for a while, so they have a new directive to make people buy more bags.
The only thing LV about this bag is the 'LV". I have to say, when LV does leather bags, the leather is pretty good, I hope that's the case with these too.

It’s funny you mention the Sofia Coppola bag - I got those exact vibes with the LV Biker bag! And the SC is essentially a Speedy/Keepall hybrid
Some more eye candy
I noticed people having their initials hot-stamped on the side belts, nice little detail!

Do you think the lighter leather color will get color transfer easily? The beige and grey gets black by the black handle rubbing or clothings color transfer when wore crossbody or shoulder carry?Fashion is eating itself

I shouldn't think so. If I was thinking about getting one I would make sure the handles didn't rest directly on the body for weeks (or months) at a time just in case.
This bag looks exactly like the Givenchy soft Antigona. Same handles, same triangular piece of leather on the front, same details on the sides.
I tried it on in store tonight after being kinda interested from pics. Don’t love it in person. The leather isn’t soft or luxe feeling at all, it just didn’t feel worth the price tag.
But it’s so cute! I wonder if the leather will soften with use.
I’m somewhat interested in this bag. Eyeing the PM in black. Not sure about the strap, though. Seems very wide and maybe not long enough as crossbody for tall people?
My Biker bags arrived! I got the black nano and dark denim MM. Quality is top notch - the pixel leather is thick and absolutely gorgeous in the dark denim effect
It’s squishy with some structure. Appears very durable! Seems to be lambskin with cowhide leather trim? I’m sure the smooth parts will scratch up but I feel that will add to the vibe.
In person I get major LV Sofia Coppola vibes as another user mentioned! Less Balenciaga city bag than I anticipated..
Sizing and strap info:
The nano fits an iPhone Pro Max with a bulky case! Just one open compartment, for a “nano” bag it’s pretty big. Only the MM has an interior pocket. Both lined in monogram fabric. The nano strap is slightly thinner and has no shoulder pad unlike the MM. I’m 6ft 4/l, slim build and on the longest option both bags fit perfectly crossbody. They feel comfortable against the body too.
