Looks like the glazing not finished properly. Someone else on another thread has posted an issue too.For those of you that own the card holder, does your side look like this (circled)? I just want to know if this is normal or if I should return it...

Saint Laurent has a similar option. Theirs has one extra card slot on the back, but no key ring and is priced at $375.
do u happen to have the name of the Chanel? trying to locate one but don't know where to start.I actually really really like it and was considering it but I saw the Chanel version sooner and chose that one... In hindsight I am happy I did as they are the same price but you get leather with Chanel ... I find the LV one too expensive
the YSL is missing the hidden pocketThat is nice, but seems to be missing out on half of what the Recto Verso offers IMO. I think the Saint Laurent one is a closer match as it is only missing the key ring part.

I have the YSL wallet but still thinking of the recto slg. I am trying to justify buying it given that I am still in love with my Porte Carte Zippé.
Thanks for the info on the missing hidden pocket. I still feel like Saint Laurent is a better deal at almost half price of the canvas Recto Verso while only missing a key ring and hidden pocket. How do you like your YSL wallet? How is wear?the YSL is missing the hidden pocket
I like it. It is an alternative option for my Porte Carte Zippé. No wear and tear but I have only used it a handful of times. I still gravitate with my beloved Porte Carte Zippé. I do find it bulkier compared to my favorite wallet.Thanks for the info on the missing hidden pocket.

Do you think the empreinte leather would be flexible enough to accommodate a key fob and hold cards in the back slots? The canvas seems too stiff but I wonder if the leather would work?
Don’t think so, I’m 99% sure that wouldn’t fit. I just received the empreinte one and I’m going to return it. I tried out today what fits in there, and I have to say I was disappointed. I only carry like 8 cards and still got the recto verso to look like a little bit deformed or ”curled”... i dont know how to explain it. When you put the 3-4 cards in the card slots, it makes that side of the key pouch so stiff/hard that you can’t put almost anything to the middle zipper pocket and it makes the whole item curl/bend a bit. When I tried my home keys to go in it, it was looking really badAnd it’s not only my piece cause I noticed it also in a few youtube videos.
This is what I had mentioned about the monogram version earlier and why I returned it. I bought it thinking I could replace three items (cles, card holder, coin holder) in order to justify the price for an slg. It would have been the perfect slg had we been able to put keys (even just one fob and one key) in the zipped section while still being able to use the back four card slots and front hidden pocket/flap pocket.Don’t think so, I’m 99% sure that wouldn’t fit.
