Ugh we got gypped [emoji58] I was really hoping it was a made in France/Spain piece.

Thank you for the great info!!

I’m wondering if the pulled stitching look is the nature of this item because it seems it would need to be sewed then turned inside out to finish if you know what I mean... my other LV key pouch is not made this way. I have a DA one on the wAy & will see if that also has the pulled stitching look. If it does this particular cles is just not a good fit for me & I’ll get a different type. We’ll see!

Got this to use for my cards and keys so I don’t have to carry a second card case along with my 6 key holder. Everything fits wonderfully!

I do wonder though... did anyone else’s cles smell pretty bad? It’s only my second brand new piece but when I bought my 6 key holder new it smelled of leather. This cles smells just awful!

Mine did not that I noticed. But I’m not using it yet. I quickly just looked it over. Now of course I’m going to go smell it when I get home!

This one looks perfect!

It is!!!! It’s perfectly perfect. [emoji4] I know there are some who feel the quality of MIF or MIS (or anywhere but the US) is better, but that’s not been my experience. My POV; if it’s an item I want, and there is nothing wrong with it, why be disappointed over where it’s made? That being said, if the item you receive is just terrible, send it back!!!!!! These items are too expensive (designer goods in general) to not be happy with.IMG_6757.JPG

Could you post pics of the top and side. I ordered one and it was horrible. I don’t care where it’s made but the stiching was bad so I returned it. And i didn’t like how to top looked either. I just ordered another one last night. Hoping the next one I get is better. Here are pics of the first one I ordered.

The mono one I just sent back as defective looked like yours on the sides with gaping on top & the stitching on both corners & the entire bottom looked “pulled”. I could see all the threads & holes like it bad been way overstuffed instead of brand new. The zip also didn’t operate smoothly. No matter where it was made, it was going back. I was just disappointed my 1st ever made in the USA LV was a dud. The DA one I got was fine though. I’m not reordering the mono.
