I was at my local LV store the other day and saw a family (a couple, a baby and one older lady) asking to look at the mini backpack. Turns out they were looking at the display model and thinking of purchasing this backpack for their baby who looks about 4-6 months old. They were discussing how to punch more holes on the straps to shorten the length to make it easier to fit the baby. Not sure if they put the order through.

Some people spend around $150-200 on a used mini speedy for their toddler or small child, which already sounds like a lot. But IMO a brand new Palm Springs backpack is pretty insane! Lucky kid who is decades away from being able to appreciate this! [emoji23]

After calling several stores the last 2 weeks; I finally have her in my possession! I found "the last one" in St. Thomas, Virgin Islands and the nice SA sent it to me Friday pm and I received it Monday at noon! I love how tiny and cute it is! My only disappointment was that it didn't come in a box, only the dust bag, which really is not that big of a deal..but I just felt a little short changed:( This is not my first LV, but I still would've liked a box.

Congrats! Just bring your bag to your local LV and explain. They will give you the box if you care to have it.

That's so funny. I never would have thought about doing that for an infant. Lol

I know it is insane but I'd still get it. I'd wear in the mean time before my kid gets to take it and make my &$ worth it haha.

I think it's a cute idea. My friend got a nano speedy so that she could match with her daughter & they have the cutest mommy-daughter photos ever. Maybe the the kid won't appreciate it now but one day those pictures are going to treasured moments caught on camera.

Just another strategy for you: I got mine by monitoring the website. I actually saved the mini product page on my home screen of my iPhone so I didn't have to waste time navigating to that page on the website. There was a 2 hour window on US website on 2-28 when it said 'place in cart,' instead of 'call to purchase.' I had only been on the wait list for 2 days when I got lucky. Worth a shot! :) Good luck!
