I contacted my SA and a friend of mine contacted hers as well as client services. They all said that they haven't heard of any changes to the straps. My friend received her mini backpack yesterday and has the normal 2 long and 2 short straps.

Anyone else heard anything?

My SA said she's only heard of it for about a week but honestly I'm hoping she's wrong because it's a great bag and that change, for me, was night and day.

I think she could be mistaken (hopefully so) because with only the two long straps you can't even make it into a backpack because there are only two gold hooks that way. I don't think LV would do that. But again, glad you got your straps back :)

What's crazy is that you also asked client services and that SA confirmed the change too! I also hope they are both wrong. I've seen 3 new backpacks this week, all with the old 2 short 2 long straps.

Yea I called so that if they said they hadn't heard that that it may help when I was trying to get my old straps or the missing ones.

Oh wow, that would crack the straps and rub the glazing off in no time at all. I can't imagine they would do that. And if they haven't changed the design then I'm shocked your SA gave you the wrong information. But so glad you got it taken care of. The Palm Springs mini is so comfy to wear, I love it :). And so carefree too.

Yes I agree and was worried about that too. Well if there wasn't a design change then 2 SAs (my usual SA and one I've used beforehand) gave wrong info and given wrong info when I called the 1866 number.

I finally got a call and was told the original was defective and have another bag for me! I picked it up and when I got it home for further inspection I noticed the small straps were missing and only the long ones were attached. When I called and asked why I was told that the new one only comes with two long straps. [emoji46] did I miss something!? Has anyone ever heard of this!? It was bad enough my original was MIF and new one is MIU[emoji22]

I hope they rectify this for you. Have the both sets of straps is invaluable. I keep one set shorter for when I want shoulder wear and one set longer for cross-body wear.

I'm 5"2 can this bag still be worn cross body?

Yes, there are lots of settings to adjust it to and it will fit you at 5'2" perfectly. It's not too long for you. But IF they have changed the straps like the messages throughout the last page of this thread talks about, it will be too long for you. So if you get the bag with all 4 parts to the straps, yes it will fit you crossbody :)
