It bugged me that my vintage Petit Noe strap didn't have the extra loops or strap keepers on each side like my larger Noe has

So I got a pair of vachetta pieces from Etsy seller Mcraftleather that I sewed together to make a pair of loops

This is comparing the genuine LV loop from the Noe on the left to the custom Mcraft loop on the right

Here is comparing them on the bags

Now I just need the pieces to hurry up and patina

Where did you get the hooks for the strap. I'm trying to find them on e-bay but there is different once and i really like the style you have. Can you let me know where rir you get them from.

They sell some stuff on Etsy too, I believe

I bought IMG_1510678255.319560.jpg for my LV Petit Noe

And IMG_1510678281.304018.jpg for the larger LV Noe

I still need to order a pair for my epi Noe w the nickel hardware finish

I also bought smaller ones to keep the lock keys on the inside D-rings for my bags that have locks (like Speedy and Estrela)

Your Noe's look fab! Does adding the extra hooks allow you to wear the bags cross body? Wondering if others here have a hack to add more length to the straps. Thanks!

I'm new to this forum and this club!

I recently bought two preloved petit noe bags, they are all from 2013. My FIRST lv bag ever!!

I firstly bought the navy one, then saw the ivory/navy one(more expensive) thinking it's good for all four seasons and I would like to give it a try. I'll return one of them. Initially, the ivory/navy noe's rating is higher in my mind since it looks more elegant.

I just received the order today, but was a little bit concerned.
My main concern is the ivory color. It's rated as "Excellent" from the seller. Since I have never owned any epi bags from lv, I really have no idea if the leather condition is good. It looks darker than I expected. Maybe mostly because of the darker "lines". Is it normal? Does it get stained easily? How will the ivory color hold in a long run.

I already searched the forum to read other possible discussions, but still cannot decide, seems like different people have different experiences...

Please Please give me some suggestions!!
