I just ordered a large canvas grey gun "pochette" + cross-body strap and wanted to report back on pricing to the USA.
The large canvas gun pochette retails in France for 210 Euro*, but because mine is being shipped to the USA, the price less VAT was 175.59 Euro. The cross-body strap retails in France for 110 Euro but cost 96.15 Euro once VAT was deducted. This didn't seem like such a bad deal.
However, the shipping prices are quite high: for this small item, I am being charged 46 Euros for shipping. Based on what I experienced last month in Paris, at today's rates, on a travel-friendly credit card, 46E is about $61. Eek. But I'm still excited: I've never seen quite a unique purse design. It's edgy yet still feminine--much like how I view McQueen skull scarves...
*As of August 12, 2013, the small canvas gun pochette retails for 190 Euro; the small leather gun pochette is 305E; and the large is 325E. I purchased the large size because the SA (Claudia) assured me that it could fit an iPhone + some credit cards/cash. She was incredibly nice and recommended the large size for "daily use." I plan to wear it to general admission concerts.
I was thisclose to purchasing a black leather gun pochette as well when she told me that the strap on that particular model is made of Kevlar. (How genius/ironic is the use of Kevlar on a gun-shaped accessory?!)

That's so great! And thanks for reporting back with such detailed info. I really want one of these...hope you will post a reveal when it comes!
I have a gun pouch and I love it! I stuff my phone in it when I'm walking my dog.Thank you SO much for this thread! I noticed these bags while at Galeries Lafayette earlier this summer but didn't think much of it because I was on the hunt for the right BV or Celine. However, the gun pouches really stuck in my mind. (Is it wrong to think they're "cute"?) Now that I'm back in the USA, I can't stop thinking that I really want one. I've been struggling to recall the name of the brand and it was driving me CRAZY. Googling "like + Goyard + gun"seemed unhelpful and sort of unfair to FLP. But TPF came through again!

I've recently been in touch with them about product catalogues and pricing too. I'm eyeing a gun pochette and maybe a card holder or round zipped coin purse.
They quoted me 35Euros shipping to the UK.

Yaaaayyy!!! My Daily Battle and Pochette Gun are here. I have owned both Saint Louis from Goyard and Neverfull from LV as well as a Cabas Quattro from Moynat and so far I am loving this too.
It's quite thick and a little heavier but that makes me think that it's sturdier than the rest. The adjustable straps and leather bottom edges are great details. My Daily Battle is the summer edition with the yellow resin which I think adds a bit more to the look. The only thing I wish it had was a zippered compartment like the Neverfull to secure items that are important.
The Pochette Gun is a novelty. I could only fit my iPhone without its case and a few credit cards. It's padded within so that's something I've never seen at least to the brands I know.
The hardware on these pieces are not quite as excellent as LV's. My Daily Battle has a gun metal finish whereas the pochette has common silver that you can find in other bag brands that are not quite as luxe.
I cannot figure out how the canvas was printed on. It seems very Goyard to me under a lens with bubbles in the print but it is quite matte unlike the shiny canvas of Goyard. The best of the coated canvas to me is Moynat's with its iridescent Art Deco Ms.
All in all, I love the Daily Battle. I am hoping that it will "smoosh" as I use it more, making the canvas pliable. Thanks for reading my humble and brief review.

Gorgeous! Love the bag and the gun pouch. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your pieces!
Congrats on your new purchase... looks great on you! I also considered this special edition, but I was worried that it would no longer be neutral as I intended it to be. But the yellow highlight does spice it up considerably, making it that much more special.
Did you really find the print similar to Goyard? It seems to me to be somehow more durable, as the patterns on the Goyard canvas do rub off with heavy usage. Did that happen to your St Louis? (What colour is it btw?)
Anyway, I do have other questions for you, but as they are not directly relevant to this thread, guess I will ask them in a pm. Enjoy!
