So it arrived today— Everything looked good, until I saw the numbered tab... They gave me #013! I’m a little superstitious and I was concerned that this might bring me bad luck... Lol. For a moment I was thinking of returning it, but I already purchased a chain extender to make it a shoulder bag/pouch and frankly I did really like it. I’m loving the red accents that make it edgy and punk. I considered purchasing another one and just return this, but when I checked on the website they already increased the price to $460US! I got it for $380US a week ago... And likely it’s already sold out. I guess that’s my luck turning, so I’ll just keep it. :smile:

Wow ! It looks really stunning ! I do aware that some cultures consider #13 as unlucky. But hey, Taylor Swift, turns out to be so successful!
I am still waiting for my SA to get back to me. I think with the COVID, it will hardly reach here. Btw, the chain looks really good! Can you share where you get the chain from and what size is it. Thank you.

yikes ! The price keep increasing. It is so hard to keep up.

I purchased the Hot Fire Daily Battle 19. The website stated it was a numbered limited edition of 54.

I received number 68. Ive emailed to ask for an explanation.

That being said....its sharp looking, but very small.

Can you share some photos, please? The SA from Melbourne boutique said that it can hold all the essential. TBH, everyone has different “essential”. It is so difficult to tell from the picture how small it is and what can be fit in.

Yes that‘s the one. I actually wanted dark brown leather with yellow trim but boutique says that combination not available in my country, only dark brown without yellow trim is available.

You are not the only one. The boutique in Melbourne also doesn’t have dark brown. I miss the choice of buying items online in the FLP website :(

Thank you! I got the chain from mautto.com. They have plenty of strap options. I chose the light gold rolo 3/8"/9mm chain with the 16C hooks. It is 20 inches long. It costs $35 USD.

Im away this weekend and dont have it with me.

Its 5 inches long at the base and 7 inches at the top. Its also 3.5 inches wide.

Its divided into three compartments. The center compartment is a zippered compartment. The other two are open.

I can put my keys, lip balm , hand sanitizer in one side. I put a card case and some cash in the zippered part. And I put a full size glass case in the other side.

I can set my phone (iPhone 11 pro max) on top of the glass case≥ Its sticks out a small amount but stays.

It carries about the same amount as my Vuitton Keepall XS.

I would say its a "minimalist" carry at best. It doesnt hold a lot, but it looks GREAT.

I found out why I have 68 of a limited edition of 54.

Faure Le Page tells me that this is because the removed all of the numbers with a four, as its considered bad luck for the Chinese trade.

So out of the 54 bags..there is no 4, 14, 24,34, 40, 41,42, 43 , 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49 or 54.

My bag is 68. If we remove those 15 numbers from 68, I have bag 53.

Hi,

For the older DB with no pockets inside ... were they cheaper? Did the inside pocket now add to the price tag? (ignore general price increases but when FLP first started making the inside pocket in 2017)

I bought my DB 32 from the Paris boutique back in 2016 and it already had the added inside pocket. My friend bought her DB 37 a year prior without the inside pocket. I think the price difference was less than $ 50-70. But this was before Faure le page had any other boutique locations other than in Paris.
