That's a bummer. I wonder how long their warranty is? This is going to sound naive on my end, but I didn't even know that they offered a warranty because they are so small.

Also, I'm not sure I can swallow shipping something so small when shipping is already super expensive...I'm curious as to what they say next.
In Europe they are mandatory by law to give warranty. Fortunately shipping is not that expensive here

Hi hi friends! I'm ordering my DB tomorrow in medium/green- so stoked. Does anyone have an impression of how much weight these bags can take? For example (and not to compare), the Neverfull I think can handle a few hundred lbs... Not like I need it to carry anything near that kind of weight; just wondering!!!!

The DB is superrrrr durable ...i love it like hell. Most of my bags are 37 (medium) which i can fit long leather wallet, small brolly, sunglasses, medium size mk up pouch, IPhone6, mini IPad ( hub will tell me not to 'torture ' my bag lol)

And, Bag handles are very sturdy. I can only compare to a Neverfull in Epi... I will never put so many things inside as it's more fragile IMO
Sorry for the long reply
 
Anyone who has the Parade bag, are you happy with it? I love smaller bags and love the look of it and think I'm going to purchase one for my birthday, but having never handled one in person, I'd love some insight. I went through the whole thread but didn't see anyone post a review or anything like that.

I got a Parade bag about one week ago when I was in Paris.
While I was actually planning to buy a Carry On, the lovely SA showed me the Parade and insisted I should try it on as well. Once I did that, I was sold. I like the elegant look of it and I got a blue one, with blue leather flap, so very versatile with jeans etc.
I can wear it as a handbag, but it also works cross body for me.
I agree with the poster who said it doesn't fit a lot like a tote for example, but sometimes I don't carry much and then this bag is perfect. I also like the pocket on the back, perfect for my phone. It's a bag that can work from day to night IMO. You can also put a tassel (or two) on it if you like. Got three different tassels myself, so now I have some variation :p.
Good luck with your decision!
 
I tried the pochette parade and the parade last summer. I wound up getting the pochette parade because i dont like hand carry bags. The parade was small- I couldn't fit my wallet and phone in at the same time. You'd have to be a minimalist for it to be an every day bag. its elegant, with a fun, whimsical edge for night.

May I ask what you can fit inside a Pochette Parade? I've been looking at the pics online and now cannot get this beautiful bag out of my mind! :heart::flowers:

I can only fit an LV cles, my iPhone 6 with an otterbox case, and one lipstick- and i have to arrange it juuuust so. there's a small pocket in the bag that can hold a greeting card or two. that said, it's an elegant bag that you can wear a couple different ways. I recommend it!!!

This forum been really useful as i was tossing between getting the goyard or the FLP. And so I decided to go for the FLP. But sadly the DB they only left with Walnut brown, all other colors out of stock :sad:

Wow! I just ordered my medium green a little over a week ago and they're sold out??? :shocked: Unless you were looking at a particular size; which size were you looking at? I wonder if you could try emailing the Galeries Lafayette, maybe they might have some...?

Thank you for letting me know! :heart: And that's fine, I don't need it to hold a lot. I just want something that can fit a card case, phone and my keys. Planning to find something that I could carry to an upcoming wedding and other formal events :cool: I know the pochettes 20/30 are more practical but the shape and wristlet-style don't appeal to me.

Thanks so much for your response! I'm looking for a nice structured bag and it seems perfect for me. Honestly I'm between the parade and an LV pochette metis but I'm not very fond of the monogram. Will the bag hold a small wallet, keys and an iPhone 6? I really don't carry a lot. I also liked the calibre 21 but from what I could glean online it seems super small? I sometimes carry my Chanel woc as a daily bag but I don't think I need two bags that small. The strap is included with the parade, correct?

Did you have a large wallet? I have a small one or I use my small pochette from LV as a wallet. Versus my mother who carries everything and the kitchen sink, I rarely carry more than 3 things. Still, I need to be able to fit a few essentials. Thanks for your insight!

Yes, it does hold a small wallet, keys and IPhone 6. The Parade bag (so not the Parade pochette) comes with strap too :yes:.
So if you are not carry a lot, this bag could definitely work for you.
You can always send them an email too, they can send you pictures of what they have, different sizes etc. I believe they still have a few limited colors atm, so it might be worth to email them for more information ;).

I did E-Mail them but since I'm not buying right away (my birthday is in January), they said to contact them when I am ready to purchase because they can't guarantee what they will have in stock and they don't do waitlists or anything like that. I will say they were very nice to talk to, if anyone is still contemplating shooting them an E-Mail. Their stock appears to just really ebb and flow, so I know not to get too attached to the idea of anything specific.

Thanks for your help again!

If anyone would like some Enveloppe Pochettes, there are only a scant few left at the Rue Cambon boutique in Walnut Brown with light or dark calfskin and Steel Grey with Grey Calfskin (one of each). I didn't know if the SA meant they will not make them anymore or if these were the last they had in stock. I hope he meant that these were the last in stock because I do want this style, but these are not the colors I want. :sad: FYI, they are 790€ with taxes; I didn't inquire about the pricing without taxes because I didn't want to waste their time if I wasn't going to buy...and for the price I would rather get a color I really love. :idea:
