I don’t think there is any change in the canvas. My PSM was always squishy (for the lack of a more accurate description lol) and had softer canvas and to me the new one feels the same. The zipper is indeed easy to use and much much smoother. (I did get the new version and I also have the older version)
I recently purchased the older version two weeks ago. Did you find the zipper became less harder to open/close with time? I do like the look of the older version as the zipper is a bit more concealed than the newer version... I find the newer version has a bit more gold showing with the zipper than I’m used to. I know there have been tons of issues with the Mini and wondering if anyone has experienced anything with the PM. Pros and cons anyone for the PM. New and/or old???
 
Hello, first post on this thread. Just wondering what are your thoughts on the alignment of the front pocket? Is this worth returning? Just got it yesterday as a replacement for a defective one, and I though I’ve picked the perfect piece out of the 3 that were in the store. I just noticed it when I unboxed it at home.

It really doesn't matter how perfect a bag looks when you resell it it's all matter of the timing and price and how worn it looks, none cares about the little tiny imperfection even if it does, a bag is perfect looking couldn't beat another bag not perfect looking but for $50 less

Hi guys,
Just wanted to get opinion if I should return the bag or not. I’m not sure if the stitching and tab will affect the bag in long term use.. stitching is cut so there’s loose thread hanging out. The tab also has a tiny defect. Hopefully you can see the pics below. TYIA

The tab will wear out as you use it if the zipper hits it. I'm more concerned with the loose thread. I did an exg before because of that reason.

Thank you for your response. I’m not sure about what happened to the tab since this is brand new. I just picked this up from the store the other day. I haven’t used it yet. Seems like the tab was not glazed properly? I just noticed the loose thread because it poked me :(
 
Some pics of the new version. MIF. The zipper starts and ends a bit higher. Also canvas end at the corner shows a cut on both ends (probably for increased mobility at the fold) . No idea if it’s an improvement or not in this regard but the zipper itself is very smooth and much much easier to use than the older version.
