Check the sides of the canvas bags where the sides fold, so many if not all eventually seem to crack in the canvas :(
A few of my friends all have that issue and they do not use the bag that much.
I sold mine before it could happen

I just bought mine, and started reading these comments about the glazing, etc. I don't plan on ever overloading it, and will take take the utmost care of it. I find it hard to believe this happens to all of them, so I'm glad to read someone with positive experiences,

Glad to find a more recent comment about this bag since I received mine today! I was very hesitant about purchasing the PM monogram but caught it online by chance so I took the plunge. Nobody I know has this bag and because it’s so rare to find instore I have nothing to compare it to, and basically no idea what proper glazing should actually look/feel like. To me the glazing looks imperfect but definitely not cracked. Do you or anyone else have any recommendations on how to properly inspect the glazing of a new PM? I also noticed that I received a Made in USA bag, I live in Toronto, Canada if that helps anyone.

Do you have pictures of your glazing? I’m sure members in here can tell you if your glazing looks good or bad...

Here are the photos of the glazing around the perimeter which I’m not sure if normal or not. The glazing on the flap looks flawless IMO but I included it as well. Also when I open the flap, the left side stitching may be a bit looser than the right - I do get this would probably happen to both sides over time. But again I’m looking at a brand new bag right now. Any help would be appreciated :) 8505014C-86D0-4933-A36B-9ACCD8ADB2C5.jpeg71485BF1-E7D0-4CD0-930B-B1DD61393CFB.jpegF2FA8F48-0531-47B0-8345-E2777B6CEBA3.jpeg095D3F7C-8C04-4037-9DDC-92523CA8248F.jpegBEB0C925-E445-43C0-A1BA-BAB5F3E37EBB.jpeg1BA467EE-A155-4C6F-8BB1-6E43DE3C303A.jpeg

Hi your bag is absolutely normal. The glazing looks the way it should. Mine looks the exact same. I’ve had my bag for a little over a year and no issues yet. Use it and enjoy. If issues arise, LV will take care of you

sadly after checking my bag today it’s developed a crack on the left side of the flap. I was hoping this wouldn’t happen but it looks like it’s inevitable after a few months. It’s my favorite bag too.
