I received a picture from my SA on what the new psm will look like. The first picture is the new model coming out at the end of September. The second photo is the current model that has been around since the beginning. The zipper is exposed as the material around it has been cut back. My SA says I should wait until the end of this month for my replacement when the new ones come in because the problem of peeling glazing around the zipper should be fixed. He thinks if I get the current model that the same issue will probably happen again. Im worried that if I wait and see it in person then Im going to hate it and then have missed my chance on getting the current model. What should I do?

If I were you, I will wait for the newer version. Therefore, you will get the most current and hopefully the new version will be less of a hassle and issues. I like the receded zipper lip, looks like it will be a breeze to zip and unzip the zipper.

I think you might be right about the newer version. I’m just worried because stock photos don't always represent the items accurately. Someone posted a picture previously of the larger size with the receded zipper lip and it did not look good to me. But these stock photos look fine. I was thinking of asking the SA if I can use my store credit to purchase one in the current model and then in a couple weeks when the new ones come in I could go to the store and compare both models to see which one I like best.

Yes that is an option as well. How long do you have to decide? Did your SA tell you to wait and put you in the waitlist? Or is this a blind waiting game? I'm certain the new versions will be sold out in a flick of a wrist!

My SA said that because my bag was defective I am at the front of the list when a psm comes in. But then he said he doesnt want me to get the current psm because of the issues. I just know that once the new ones come in the current models will no longer be made.

LV's really putting an emphasis on the redesign on the website, lol. I didn't even have to zoom and take a screenshot since they already had this detail shot on the Palm Springs PM product page.

The zipper is definitely no longer recessed under the canvas lip.

Let us know what you decide. Honestly, I like the newer design. Now, you made my old PSM from 2016 wanting a reverse PSM brother...I'll have to see the new version in person.

I had just gotten the Ps Pm so glad I don’t have the newer version. I just don’t like it.

i am also at the front of the line for the replacement of my mini. tbh, i like the new one and i think they are actually taking into consideration the bigger quality issue this bag has. hopefully they re-worked the canvas as well (my girl is checking in on that). i have the choice to keep the old model or get the new one, i'm leaning towards the new one. looks like they tried to make it align better too (on the sides of the bag)
