It is the stitching part and leather stretch. It shouldn't be like that with the amount of money that u have paid.. BUT.. It is a common issue in recent years! It depends if you would be annoyed, purposely looking into the flaws every time u hold your bag, which could drive u go nuts! If yes.. U should return it! Good luck
It’s probably foolish of me, but I’m hoping that since they just started a campaign for the classic flap, they will be improving quality since they’re shining such a spotlight on it.
but realistically......they’re probably tempting people to buy the bag, meanwhile lowering quality and production costs and ultimately make a bigger margin at the bottom line.
Just wondering if this creasing/ bubbling of the leather is normal on the flap when it’s open. Does this just happen over time? Is it a reason not to keep this bag?

I have time to return this. Just looking for some input. Is this a bad sign? Should I return it???
Yes! This is not acceptable for the money you paid!
I have this exact bag in a different leather and I have noticed that it has started to crease in that spot with use. Mine doesn’t have the bubbling though. If that is a brand new bag that is not great but it is likely to happen again with time.
I love the style of the bag! I just got it from a resale site and have time to return it. I was fine with the creasing because I expect that to happen over time with usage. But the bubbling concerns me. I don;t think the leather should be doing that. Seems like it would be more prone to damage in that area.
Guess I'll look for another one. How do you like the bag? Do you recommend it?
Yes, I love it! Mine is a dark grey metallic goatskin, the leather is really thick and durable which might be one of the reasons why I'm not getting the bubbling. It's one of my go-to bags for the fall and winter- I would use it year-round but the color is more suited to that time of year.
Hi! Would anyone know if this uneven stitching is “normal”? Bag is vintage feom 97-99.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!
If it’s vintage, it’s probably stitches that have shifted from wear? I’m just guessing, but assuming it’s authentic I wouldn’t pay much mind to it if you love the color.
