I have a question for those of you with the new Les Duo reversible tote. Has anyone had any issues with the strength of the three threads holding up the bottom corner flaps? I love the look of the bag and the quality of the leather, but I am a little concerned that the threads could give out in fairly short order, especially if one of the little flaps gets caught on something somehow. Initially I thought I would use this bag in the same carefree manner that I use my Garden Party, but the minimal stitching makes me think I might have to be more careful with it. I’m curious to hear what you all think. Thanks

Oh wow - I assumed that this bag was just a re-worked version of the leather Quattro. I no longer have any of mine so I cannot directly compare to your photos, but that does indeed look like very flimsy construction. I don't recall that the corners were that "gappy" in stitching.
 
I first came across the brand when I was visiting Singapore in April of this year. A handbag caught my eye, and the SA was so lovely (much more friendlier than Goyard, which was the store we visit right before). I hadn’t heard anything about the brand so my DH and I read up about it and learned a bit about their history. My DH was really impressed with the leather on the handbags. I went back the next day and was greeted by the same SA who remembered us, and I purchased my first Moynat bag - a Rejane BB in desert rose with gold hardware. Absolutely love it

Just posted pics of my leather Quattro tote corners. The stitches are prominent but agree, not quite as "gappy" as yours. But I've had no issues, got it about 18 months ago. I suppose one option would be to use it more regularly with the other side facing our, so the stitches are on the inside of the bag.

Thank you so much! You’re right - it looks like the folded leather flap is done the exact same way on your Quattro, so the fact that you haven’t had any issues with it is great news. Interestingly, I don’t think the flap comes up quite as high on the side of your Quattro as it does on the Les Duo - I think that is why the Les Duo has that more prominent gap. And yes, I could just keep the zinc side showing, but it really love the greige color, plus I love the way the straps are stitched on the greige side too. At least now I have some hope that the bag may hold up with that side exposed. I really appreciate you sharing your photos and experience with the Quattro. Thank you again so much!
 
Hello Moynat fans! I would just like to ask if someone has tried to order a Rejane in Cognac Natural Calfskin a.k.a. barenia. I sent them a message and they told me that the minimum wait time after placing an order for this bag would be 10 months (feels very Hermès Horizon to me). Has anyone tried to place an order? Did it actually take 10 months? Anyone who experienced something longer/shorter?

Thanks :D
