tbh my original mono psm peeled like crazy and it was made in texas.
I don’t know if I should wear it more often and see how much the peeling on the corners go. But for the bag that has never been put on any floor surfaces but only careful handling I’m starting to doubt the quality of some of LV modern canvases. The problem is that the by the time the corners of the front pocket peel more ( and they will! ) and I take it to the store I most probably will hear that I imposed that kind of wear and tear. I’m not the person to explain myself and don’t like to be in those “please do something for me” retail situations. When I buy a bag I don’t want to worry about such wear and so early!
I was so happy to receive a nice looking TX made bag. For once. Nope. It looks like that one of the most “durable” materials created over a century ago for LUGGAGE handled roughly isn’t capable of sustaining 2 months occasional/careful wear in the 21st century.
I’m so tired of LV proponents announcing on IG like platforms that all LV canvas is equal. Clearly not. My 2015 Turenne PM has folded corners and its France made canvas has no such issues.
take it sooner than later. it will go either way, either the peeling will subside and stop or it will keep going and continue to get worse and there is no predicting which way it will go. i agree, the canvas doesn't hold up with the folded corners on us bags and that i've seen a few times myself. i was in store today and looked at 7 different palm springs because i want my mono back. turned down every single one because they were all made in the us and i refuse to put myself throuhg that headache once again.
not France, but got one made in Spain when I ordered online around April/May and no problems so far.
Heck, I didn't even know PSM's are included in the bags they made in US
Yes, I got one in May and its Made in France...but I only used it 2 times so far cause I'm constantly switching bags so all my bags can be carried. Lol! But, no problems so far on my PSM.
and you ordered off the usa website?
all the ones i seen in store today were all made in the usa, just a little hesitant.
Yes, I ordered it off the US site. I think it might have been one of the last made in France ones...

Hi, just bought my dream bag psm reverse it was nowhere to be found 3 months ago, then it finally showed up on the LV website. Seems like they’re making a lot of it now.
My question is I have a problem with the exposed stitching and the alignment of the logos on the front, the top handle and a dent in the back. Should I return it and request for a better one? or is it really common issues with the psm?especially with the reverse? I’ve attached some pictures. please help

I just bought one too. I would not be bothered by the dent or front alignment.
As for the handle, I think you have to decide how important that is to you. Yours doesn’t look too bad. If it will stop you from enjoying your bag, perhaps try to exchange.
I’m not sure if that exposed stitching is normal, hopefully someone else can answer that.
Got this 5 days ago, an early birthday gift to myself, my first LV bag, I’m in love , made in France too. I placed the order through the phone with the CA. It arrived 2 days later.
thanks tbh I can let those flaws pass except the logo alignment on the front.. just disappointed with the quality and its made in France. After reading posts here about the bag looks like the good ones are made in Italy. This is the first LV canvas I might return don’t know the process or if I will get another one if I return it..
Wow that's awesome! Congratulations on your first LV bag. It's beautiful and adorable! Hope you love it.
Hey guys! I’m new to the luxury world and I recently purchased a PSM, which I love! I noticed that the stamping on the front leather tab looks super faint though, almost barely visible— what are your opinions? Is this normal or is this worth exchanging for one that hopefully has a deeper stamp? I can’t tell if I’m being too nit picky about it!
