Hey all,

Have been going back and forth on which petite malle to get. Then I found the following: View attachment 4667845

love the color combo. Military look. Thoughts?

There's a new all-black one that I like more. It'll be very easy to pair this all-black one with accessory straps and outfits.

Ultravositor is so spot on. Virgil Abloh's designs are for people that are losing with these bags for instagram-ready photos .the traditional pieces made in the past are still in use and loved by thousands of men who appreciate the timeless design and good quality . Most of the Abloh designs are not practical for use by the average man and are just produced for runway shock value .kim jones designed pieces that were beautiful and elegant plus stylish,more similar of what Nicholas Ghesquire is designing .For women today .when you go into a LV store,the contrast between the two designers and the message they are sending couldn't be more opposite . Ghesquire designs say elegant,fabulous,brilliant,traditional but with a great flare. Abloh designs say glorified streetwear,items that represent little value for the money,are made to capitalize on the latest fads,and do not signify any degree of elegance or class. I have loved this brand for years and I am actually filled with antipathy over the directions mens accessories and clothing at LV has gone

As we are *****ing about VA, rightly so I might add - does anyone have the the Christopher PM backpack in epi leather ? Love the look of the backpack and thinking of getting one but am concern about the weight (have back issues)...

Also, am not considering the canvas version because all of my friends' ones have cracked at the top opening :p how sad.

I am a big fan of the PM. If you don't mind the size and carry only essentials, it's great piece to own. Green color is great. However personally I never been a fan of gold hardware. I don't own anything gold hardware from Louis Vuitton except for the case with mirror trunk I have.

I don’t like most of VA’s designs at all like the pvc Keepall and the chunky plastic chains on bags and accessories. The curved Keepalls are also an abomination. I wish Kim Jones had never left and can’t wait for someone new to take over. Do you think VA designs are selling well enough for LVMH to keep him?
