Congratulations!@DrTr hello all, guess what? This beauty has arrived after over 3 months
It’s super cute and MIF, and unfortunately there are some imperfections. Just wanted to ask if you think they are a big deal or liveable. Any comments/advice would be great. I know it’s super hard to get so want to be realistic and see what you lovely ladies think. Thanks so much for letting me share.
Your bag looks perfect . I can't find anything wrong at all.
Can you straighten the wonky handle?
Mine was worse than yours at the store, and the CA just straightened it with her hands, and now it's perfect.
In terms of your wrinkled handle, it doesn't look bad at all IMO.
The side of your bag with the MIF leather piece looks smooth and perfect.
Your strap on the other hand would bother me. Maybe LV can fix it or exchange it for you?
Thanks SM! No, didn’t know to straighten it but good to go. Maybe will try it out on a warmer day as it will be easier to work with. Yeah the loose cotton on the strap is my biggest concern. It is at the end so shouldn’t be an issue, but who knows right? It’s not too obvious, but I notice that it’s there. Yes I will see what LV says. Thanks for your comments
It's a shame LV didn't look into how people would find the strap too short, or have just a leather adjustable one like the new nano.. People having to buy add on extenders when it already costs so much to buy.
Ya the length of strap is weird. I bought the mono adjustable strap to wear with bag and love it. Will use the strap it came with, with my azur regular speedy. I’m also a little concerned about how the strap it came with will wear over time if worn a lot.
I have a bag insert, but didn’t buy for the 20 specifically, as you say the canvas is so nice and thick and the bag holds its shape. I bought an Alma bb Fornasetti and wanted a thin light insert to protect the inside. Samorga makes a 1.2 mm felt insert for the BB, for protection, and it fits perfectly in the 20. I use it sometimes, sometimes not. At that thinness it doesn’t really shape the bag, it’s just to keep inside clean. And with a small bag like the BB and the 20 I don’t want or need thick felt and lots of pockets. So, it dependsThat’s perfect!
Ever notice how that’s the answer in life to so many things? It’s really a matter of preference.As an aside I did try a Zoomoni organizer once for my H Evelyne, but it came with so many layers and pockets it was way too thick and not usable for me. Quality was good but have never seen such a thick organizer! I only tried them because Samorga‘s lead time is always 3-4 weeks. But won’t use them again. I do always use an organizer in H and other leather or suede lined bags - both for shaping and to keep the inside pristine. HTH
Hi - would this alignment bother anyone or am I being way too obsessive? One side is higher than the other. You can tell if you look at the middle flower on the bottom.

No. I never even look at alignment. But you should be 100% satisfied with your purchase.
This would not personally bother me. Its not noticeable at all, it would take a very close scrutiny + ruler to see the 0.1mm difference
your bag looks beautiful I think it looks great and can’t see what you are noticing. Hope it works for you.

Thank you all! This makes me feel better. I tend to get overly obsessive with alignment especially since this is my first LV bag.
