Hi everyone…..I have recently fallen in love with this bag and wish I had seen it when the Wild at Heart collection came out. Can anyway tell me what the original retail price of that Felicie was? I think I can only find them second hand now but all the prices seem double to triple.

Joined the club twice over the past few weeks.
Bought the Christmas Animation and the epi noir.

Really unsure about the epi. The canvas is more flexible and I can fit more in, the epi is really stiff and I can hardly put my keys and phone in let alone anything else (and that's without the inserts) I absolutely love it but I'm worried I won't be able to use it does anyone who's had epi long term know if it softens at all?

Interested to know too, I haven't bought an empreinte piece since my wallet I have had since 2013 had the glazing melt I guess you could call it and get stuck all over everything in my bag ruining bag linings and other things. The leather and wallet itself look like new but can't use it due to the glazing issue which ruins anything touching it in my bag so have never been game enough to buy anything else in that leather again.

Hi! I’m glad you’re enjoying your Felicie. It’s a great bag. Be careful not to overstuff it. Also, when I open mine, I glide my finger under the button opposed to pulling the button open, which helps the bag maintain its envelope shape and keeps the flap from bulging. I use the strap from my Pochette Métis Empreinte. Check out Mautto.com or McCraft leather for some other inexpensive strap options. There’s also a YT video on multiple ways to wear the Felicie using the gold chain. I’ve attached a pic of one of my favorite ways to wear mine.

Any mod shots of you wearing it w/the black leather strap from the pochette metis empreinte? I bet that is just GORJUS!

You don't have to worry about the glazing now, there was a defective batch of glazing between 2013 and 2014 and maybe early 2015. There has been a new formula since 2015. If you take it in, you should get a credit note to the value as it's a known issue, a couple of mine were recalled and they told me there is no time limit to bring it in. I got my empreinte speedy b 2014 reglazed in 2016 free of charge and it's still perfect.

Oh awesome I might do it. Closest store is now 2 hours from us so I'm glad there is no time limit. I really love the wallet its just the glazing ruined so many things including my mini pochette which I still use but it's covered in blue glaze.

If it helps w ur decision I had the Epi one sitting in my closet unused for 2 years. Finally just sold it on EBay and I feel so releaved that bag is out of my collection even if I took a lil loss lol. I didn’t like the SH and the plain look of the Epi. I prefer my Vernis and Emp one SM better
