Ah yes! I admired your posts but wasn't sure of scale. (That most certainly could have been me ;))

Thank you so much - so helpful!!

You’re so welcome! I was worried about the bag being too small for my height but I actually love how it sits on me. The straps are pretty long as a backpack and it’s nice that we don’t have to double up on them. You should totally get this

Finally collected my world tour edition on Thursday. Absolutely love it but still getting used to the length of the straps. Can’t decide between having it on a single strap and wearing it cross body, or using both straps and wearing it as a standard backpack. The straps are really stiff to adjust, almost feels like I’m going to break them whenever I try to adjust :doh:

Someone on IG requested mods pics of me wearing it different ways. I’m pretty petite! I’m only 5’1”. First pic, I’m wearing it crossbody with one strap, 2nd pic I used the cross option where you attach one strap to the top and other on the bottom, and last pic is a shoulder shot. It doesn’t look right on me especially the backpack version. It looks good on other people though!!! Hope this helps!!

I’ve seen people double up on the straps for the backpack style, and it helps shorten the length.

Your SA is so nice!

My mini backpack has some cracking on the canvas too. It is not a regularly used bag and just over 2 years. Only just noticed the cracking so I took it to LV and was told they cannot do anything abt it.

For a bag of that price that’s not a regularly used bag and is 2yo it seems like a poorly made bag. I have canvas bags that are 11 years old without any issues. Quality has definitely gone down. I don’t think I can buy any more canvas pieces knowing this can happen. None of my chanel or Dior bags have ever had any issues like these. Sorry. Thanks for letting me rant.

Visit another LV store to get an exchange or store credit. Do not let them say cracking is normal because it's not.

So finally I could bring this one home! I have been on a hunt since January. No waiting list here in Sweden. Today my best friends SA got hold of it and reserved it for me for an hour, so I had to be fast. It is a bit misaligned in the front though, but I can live with that. The tabs are perfect, and the zipper is super smooth.

I love the bag, but I don’t love to use it. BUT iI force my self and its groing, but I dont know if it is enough to justify the price. First I used one strap, but I felt that the strap was too thin for me, and honestly felt a bit cheap. Now I use the bag with both straps, even if I carry the bag crossbody. It gives me the possibility to change strap options much easier. Also it feels better for the shoulder and it looks more substantial. I Will use it a couple of times and Then decide.
