are the patterns handpainted like goyard?

The bags are silk screen painted; which basically means a person does it. Not a machine. Well. that is what I was taught in Design Class in High school. Ive tried silk screen painting before - its pretty difficult and if you make one mistake you have to start all over again. Its a pretty painful process.:weird:
 
After all the stalking I've done on this page, I'm so excited!! I'm placing my order for the Medium Daily Battle tote. The only problem is they don't have my color combination (gray with gray border) so I have to wait for their next shipment :sad: Any other people have the same problem? And if so, how long did it take you to wait?!
 
This thread has been so helpful. I was debating a Goyard St. Louis but not thrilled about spending the $ when I see so many reports of cracking straps. I am strongly considering an FLP. I have a few questions....is the Daily Battle small the closest in size to the LV Neverfull MM? Also, while I love my LV, one thing I liked about the Goyard is the "smooshyness" of the canvas, I want something that will be a little less stiff (for lack of a better word) than the Neverfull. Where does the FLP canvas fall between the 2? I have also never felt a Goyard in real life so it is possible I would hate the canvas feel but I love the look. One last question, is the FLP foldable at all for travel (I mean to pack it...I have been hesitant to really fold my LV into a small suitcase.) I am a little nervous to purchase sight unseen but you have all been so detailed in your posts, I feel like it is a safe bet. Thanks!
 
Thanks for your reply. I'm in the process of placing my order and they said they would send me "a link from our Bank to proceed to the payment on their secured website. This link will be available only for a few hours."

Just wondering if anyone had done this before, also a little bit concerned whether this is secure.
I have not ordered yet but I am using a massive amount of Amex reward points to buy an Amex gift card to use for ordering, it is a win win since I get to use my points and I do not risking email my card number.

I love LV - but yes I would also never consider squishing it into a suitcase.

Goyard canvas is a bit shiny-ish. It is great and people love the smooth texture. But the disadvantage is the wear-and-tear that shows quickly. For instance I've read complaints about the corners of the bag and handles that show damage easily. However, I don't own one myself.

FLP has more of a texture to the canvas so that you dont see scratches. They also reinforce the corners with leather so it lasts longer on the Daily Battle bags.With regards to folding it - yes. It is super durable and packable.
 
I'm still waiting for my Daily Battle to come back into stock...It's been almost 2.5 weeks...shouldn't they have refilled their stock yet?! I have a Goyard St. Louis that I have beat to death...and I still carry it holes and all! Compared to a LV, definitely smooshy and it is packable almost like a Longchamp. Having not received my FLP can't tell you if that'll be packable!
