New Version - POCHETTE METIS 2019

[Barbie123]

Technically the other Pochette Métis was one which had come into the store and was being held to be offered to the customer of my CA. It was not an online order that was sent to the store specifically for one individual as my bag was.

It looks more matte perhaps due to the rougher texture? But it doesn’t look that bad to me. Maybe looks worse irl and better in photos? What will you do?

I’m totally keeping it. The only other option was to return the bag and take my chances trying to find another one. They would not return it and order a replacement for me.

I picked up the reverse and here’s pics with my mono one. Anything you guys notice that I should worry about?

Thank for posting pictures of your new reverse monogram. I just got mine today and it looks like yours.

Both bags measure the same dimensions, the newer version only looks bigger because the canvas is thicker making it more structured, so it’s not as soft and floppy as the older one. Which is actually a good thing. My only worry is that it would cause it to crack in the future?

Really? Now I'm actually glad I got mine late 2018 because I prefer SOFTER canvas. Mine is quite shiny. Meanwhile the TP26 from the same time is more matte.

I do notice that my LV canvas goods from different years have different sheen. I think raw materials are being tweaked a bit and perhaps different factories just come out with slightly different canvases. After all this is not high tech.

I get what you're trying to convey. The accordion insert parts of your reverse look more puffed making your reverse look "fatter". And there's one corner of your reverse where the glazing is thicker and canvas crooked.

If I didn't own both and got to examine them side by side, I'd say they are both good to go. Does it bother you considerably? I wouldn't bother me, I'm not a very picky shopper to begin with. But it's nice to own both, no? My next PM would have to be empreinte.

For comparison, this is my PM from late 2018 (Christmas time). It has a nice sheen, not matte at all. When I opened the box, my heart skipped a beat. It was perfect. And the more I use it, the shinier it gets.

Also included is a picture of the inside. The canvas stops before it hits the felt interior.

I didn't know LV made changes to the 2019 version.

The new Pm looks more faded than the older one. The reverse is more light brown, the old reverse is more yellow/Brown and the monogram is faded. And the glazing is thicker than on the old one Pochette Métis. i think prefer the older one.

I inserted some pics I took of the glazing. It’s bubbly in some parts and rough or raw to the touch but only on one side of the bag. The other side is good.

It is close to impossible to find a perfect PM, this is very minor in my opinion.

Does anyone else see a pattern of the lv mono canvases becoming more faded. Sometimes you can’t even see a monogram piece has monograms, I’ve seen bags that are so faded out it scares me to by monogram.

Yes I realised it after I bought a reverse card holder recently. I thought I was crazy or just bad luck to get a print that look pretty “faded” esp after I can’t find any answers online reg the print issue.

I was very shocked with the discovery as I will never expect I have to worry about the print being faded or not printed properly when checking on any possible imperfection.

I have already made peace with accepting some minor imperfections on luxury products cause it’s too common, but the print.. the feeling is like you go to buy a cheeseburger but later found out there’s no cheese inside

I just received my speedy 30 after waiting 20 days for it to come in on preorder and the print is so faded on the bag. Like the worse print I’ve ever seen it’s so light you cannot even see it without taking a photo up close and with flash! This is a picture of it against my pochette accessories which is older and has been used already multiple times. I’m sending the speedy back it is very unacceptable! I know some areas become faded on the bag over time from wear but the whole bag coming faded is just sad.
