What a cutie! I love the epi leather, it gives the petit noe such a cool look!

Thank you. My first Louis Vuitton Bag. I bought epi petit noe preloved for everyday work bag. It looks abit dull now. Going to clean and condition the bag. So exited getting it cleaned. Probably buying an epi slider as well. Can’t wait for it to look brand new!

I love the mono as well. Saving up to buy a mono in the near future. I just love the look of noe bags.
 
I have been on the fence about the Noe and petite Noe for the longest time but wasn’t able to find a preloved that I was content with. After months of contemplating, watching YouTube videos and reading this thread, I finally went instore to see them in person. Noe was in 1 store and petite Noe was in another store and both were the last bags in those stores.

I ended up purchasing the Petite Noe monogram, however 2 days later, a preloved classic Noe Epi in great condition came up on a seller’s page I’ve been following for 2 years and I ended up purchasing the classic Noe Epi.

My dilemma now is whether I should keep the Petite Noe monogram or return it to LV for refund as I haven’t used it yet... thoughts?
 
What color Epi did you get? I ask because I had both the mono and the OM red petit noe for quite a long time. I got tired of how stiff the epi was and sold it. I love my mono one. I think the new versions of epi are a bit softer. I guess it comes down to budget. Can you afford both? If not, keep the one that makes you the happiest.

The preloved Noe I purchased is in 2015 Quetsche dark purple colour. I can afford both but maybe it’s the mindset I have afterwards, 2 bags of same style although different sizes. The mono draws me in because of the vintage vanchetta I’ve seen on more aged bags which I look forward to seeing on mine. But I’ve been stalking the Epi Noe for ages now regardless of colour, just never was able to justify paying full retail price for the Epi version or the preloved ones were not in good condition so when this preloved came up, I was so happy and excited. : )

Question for those who may know... Any rhyme or reason to LV releasing Epi versions of the Petit Noe? I love my Mono Petit Noe SO VERY MUCH and I'd really love to have an Epi version as well. I could be pre-loved - which I don't necessarily mind. But I'd love to buy new in a fabulous, fun color. What gives? Anyone have any insight/thoughts? I feel like a Epi Petit Noe would be my holy grail LV bag (though I wouldn't be angry with an Empreinte or Mahina verision - but now I'm really dreaming)
I would go for a red if you like red or navy. I was always wanting a red one and they had it back in 2013, nice red, but saw a limited edition tricolour one in green black and blue, and got it. I still love it but I wish I had got the red one instead. The leather tie always comes undone but I don’t mind. It’s a lovely classic bag. The epi leather stays as new
My Noe trifecta! The red is from ‘94, blue is from ‘91, and the monogram is from ‘97. View attachment 4608166
and I died, they are so beautiful! It was in the mid nineties when I fell in love with this bag, could finally afford one in 2013, no regrets
