i think it looks fine : ) i always use wax paper on zippers for my bags to make them run smoothly and for these palm springs backpacks i also use either a charm or more often the key ring extender chain. i attach one end to the zipper on the big opening and one end to the zipper on the pocket. this helps me as well. lastly, i've watched youtube videos where they recommend making sure the large opening is pushed in before zipping. in other words, the flap should be just inside the lip according to these videos, rather than trying to zip with the flap sticking out. hope this makes sense . i have found the zippers on these palm springs backpacks get easier with time. jmho : )

Hi guys! The UPS guy just dropped off my new PSM and I am hoping I can get some opinions on whether or not it looks good enough to keep. The zipper is a little difficult but I think I can deal with it. I am most worried that the bottom pocket looks a little puffy. Thanks so much in advance!!

The bottom pocket is meant to be like that, and the zipper is always stiff especially on brand new, after use for a while it will go smoother but I didn’t want to wait for that so rubbed candle wax along the zipper then run the pull back and forth until it was smooth
Congrats it looks perfect

Hello Ladies :smile:
Can you tell me if it is still possible to create a "My World Tour" version of the Mini Palm Springs Backpack? I've been missing this option in the (German) online store for quite a while and now wonder if it was just a limited product.

I'm just patiently waiting for the new one to arrive and snatch it. I like the old design but the new zipper will definitely be more practical.

Will anyone post the new PSM once they get theirs. I'm quite curious to see what it looks like and owner comments. I have the older one and maybe he wants a new reverse brother PSM.

I would post it once I get to see it in the store... I'm also debating whether to get MNG or Reverse... The reverse is so unique but I'm feeling like I want it for the sake of it being rare/difficult to find. If I decide on the monogram I can definitely get it in late October, with reverse its another case ... I have thought about mono with a reverse bandauliere.. So difficult to choose

I know that misalignments are common with the PSM but has anyone seen where the top handle is misaligned too? Both sides should be stitched like the one circled green.

I don't think it's a big deal. My PSM has inconsistencies in its posterior side too. Honestly, no one will notice that but you. LV bags are handmade and therefore there are little variations or deviations from each other... Go enjoy it!
