Anyone have issues with your mini palm spring bag loop?
Mine 3 for the strap and 1 for the scarf loop split and i only bought it for 2 months before i noticed the issue and have only used it for a couple of times only.
Has the quality drops for Louis vuitton bags?

I had two issues on my mono ps mif. First was I got a sort of popped stitch near the zipper. LV gave me an exchange. Luckily the choices were all mif. However one of the bags, the canvas color was off. My other choice the flaw was the leather tab in front where Louis Vuitton was stamped is not perfect. The stamp was not as heavy and a bit skewed. I went with that instead of an off color. 4 months past and my replacement LV was starting to "grow hair".. the chapes are fraying. Spoke with my SA and she arranged for it to be repaired after she spoke with Quality. I was given 4 to 6 weeks. Hoping to hear word soon as I miss my little louis. This is my first ever Louis and quite disappointed. It was challenging to convince DH to get me the Alma I had my eye on for awhile with this type of quality. I'll post new pics when I get it back.

Hi there- hope you get your mini back soon! J and quality issues too and exchanged mine. Still waiting for a MIF but don't think that's gonna happen! May just rock the MIU as it's likely the only way I can get another. Good luck!

Calling all palm spring infrarouge owner!!!

Do you have a problem with the infrarouge canvas? I know that some people have problem with their pochette metis infrarouge, I'm wondering if anyone with palm spring mini infrarouge have problem with their bag too.

How long did you have yours before you noticed defects? I was careful with mine and yet this happened.

Hi there. :) I had mine for 10 months. I did use it nearly daily but took good care of it.
I could have lived with an ocasional repair especially as it was MIF but unfortunately the cracked canvas was a deal breaker. I'm not sure if I even want another as my connection was to that bag. Kind of wondering if I should just get an entirely different bag (like a Neverfull which I don't have yet) or Speedy B. I'm pretty much into totes and mini bags and already have a speedy nano so maybe I should get the Neverfull. Just don't want to regret it if I don't get the mini.... any bag might have issues- i know it's not just the mini... just trying to feel out if I'm over it!

Yeah I understand its disconcerting when we pay a lot of money and expect quality and get disappointed. I have been thinking the same..I love my mini and like small bags in general but not very confident when I get my bag back. I have been thinking of getting the pochette metis if it fails the 3rd time. Speaking of neverfull been eyeing the world tour and the upcoming epi rouge.
