Hi y’all, I checked my pochette Métis yesterday and the canvas has cracked on the left side of the flap. I bought it March 2019 and thought this issue was done with but apparently not. Has anybody had cracking with their PM lately. I’m not sure if I should take an exchange and risk this happening again. Is the empreinte PM safer? I don’t want any other bag from LV at the moment. The PM is my favorite out of all the bags I own. I’m very bummed about it. I need your opinions please

I have both the monogram and empreinte. I love this bag and haven't had any problems. I'm not sure how wide you open the flap during use, as I've noticed many youtubers stuffing this bag excessively and pulling the flap so far back that it makes me cringe haha but I definitely recommend the empreinte!!

Thank you for the input. I actually only carry my zippy coin purse, key case and sunglasses. I don’t even stuff it full. But your point about pulling the flap back too far is very interesting. I never thought about that. Great observation!

I was able to take pictures today in the daylight. Crazy enough the glazing on my bag is still perfect but the cracks still appeared. I think wherever the canvas folds tightly will eventually develop a crack. They’re still fairly small and hard to see but still there. If you’ve had a PM for a few months, you might want to inspect your bag. I know it’s just a bag but I’m heartbroken over giving it up.

Please what about lumineuse? Is it in list? Because i have changeed my bag fascinante together but my girlfriend was said that lv can reglazing her bag
Her bag has cracking on shoulder belt

I had a Lumineuse that I had to bring in for recall around summer of last year. My bag was from 2015. Melting on all the straps that could not be repaired. I was so sad because I loved that bag and they don’t have that style anymore. I ended up getting the empriente Montaigne and hope the glazing holds up

That’s interesting. Mine was in bad shape. I had not used it for several months and when I got the call about the recall I went to take it out of the dust bag and saw that the glazing was all over the dust bag. When I brought it in to the store my SA didn’t hesitate to tell me to pick out a new bag.
