I have 3:

2008 - (when they initially launched) Speedy 30 (Ivoire and Bordeaux)
2012 - Neverfull GM (Moutarde and Fuschia)
2021 - Speedy B 25 (Marine and Ivoire)

All of them are incredibly well-made, no flaws, stitching and monograms all symmetrical, no issues whatsoever. :tup: They are work bags for me and have been so durable. They were originally called "Mon Monogram" and you can look in the Clubhouse for more photos and ideas. I only wish they offered a better color selection after all these years.... :doh:

 
Mine is speedy 35 and 10 years old now. The bag is as old as my daughter. I made this bag on my last month of pregnancy and collect it after I gave birth. The bag has her initial, not mine. When I made this bag, they don’t offer color lining. Only classic brown. And they don’t offer in speedy B. I bought additional vachetta strap and recently I add D ring. I was tempted to make a new one in speedy B 25, this time with my initial. So far my bag has no defect. Zipper works well, paint in perfect condition.
It was my baby bag and now my travel bag. I never baby the bag at all. I also have mon monogram zippy long wallet, but I have issues on my wallet. The paint chipped and LV is not able to fix it. This is why I haven’t made a new one with my initial. :sad:

I have a Mon Mono MM from April 2019. It is my most carried bag, and I love the patina that has developed. I chose Bordeaux/Ivoire as my colours; neutral and goes with no matter what I'm wearing. I have no visible wear on the paint at all and I'm no longer concerned about it chipping.

I have a Speedy B25 in DE; I'm considering adding a Speedy B30. I'm just deciding between getting the same Bordeaux/Ivoire or getting a MWT with black handles and a single LV stamp on the end.

Hi I really like the color combo you did. May I ask what’s the lighter color? Is it the orange, gold or yellow?
