For those of you who have the newer empreinte leather version of the PM, have you had any glazing issues and if so, how bad? I have a monogram PM that I purchased in 2015 that has had really bad glazing problems and after speaking with the LV Care Service group, they have confirmed that I can exchange my PM for a new one or another bag of my choice. While I've loved my monogram PM, I'm considering paying the difference to get the empreinte version, but I'm weary since it also may have glazing issues in the future. Any insight anyone can give would be appreciated. TIA!

I've had my noir empreinte for a couple of years, no issues!

Hello All,

I received my Reverse PM today. Love the bag but realize slight misalignment of the flap. What do you all think, does it look bad and I should return? Would love your advice. TIA.

Looks fine to me, it's very good. If you return you may not get another as good, could have something else to pick

Thanks for the advice I am keeping it. Now I just have to wait for Covid to get over to start wearing it.

Hi! I am finally part of the pochette metis club!!! And it's my very first LV (and luxury designer bag) More than happy! Though she hasn't seen the light of day yet. Got lucky and got her online during the covid lockdown in NZ.

I have nothing to compare it too but I think it came in great condition. If there' some things to notice, it's some faint scratches on the back zipper (maybe from shipping?) and the bulk on the side of the inner pocket which I saw on some other photos here too. I am not bothered by any of it, or should I?

Anyway im so grateful of all the useful information on this club ❤

I had same issue with back zipper. I took it to local lv store and sa used microfiber cloth and wiped down and scratched were gone

I was able to exchange my 2015 Monogram PM at the store due to really severe glazing issues, and so I exchanged it for a brand new Empreinte PM in Noir. Here she is!

Hi all Pochette Metis experts..
I just got mine and would love for all of you to see if it looks ok.
I was wearing gloves at the store so couldn’t feel it then .. at home I can feel that the edges along the glazing feel a little rough and no very smooth.
Also, my bag is not able to stand on its own.. is that normal? I must add that it was empty when I tried to stand it up.
Here are some pictures of it. Thanks in advance.. xx

I am joining the club! Monogram Empreinte Pouchette Metis in Tourterelle. I really love the color. It is a neutral grey brown. Not too warm or cold. A perfect work bag!

Bonjour from France. Did you notice any color transfer issues ? Merci.

Hello,
I have not noticed any. However, I have been wearing lighter color since it is Summer here, and I am pretty careful with all my bags. I think as long as you are mindful of what you are wearing (and I don’t mean obsessively worrying about it), the material should hold up pretty well and you won’t have color transfer issue.

I’ve had a Noe BB in Damier Azur since 2012 with heavy rotation. She is still holding up beautifully with zero color transfer.

I hope this helps.

Your PM is beautiful! The canvas is stunning? May I ask what country are you living? I am in US and I see big difference on canvas in here.

i am sorry but your bag has a monogram very faded on the left side and more visible on the right side. I would not keep it.

Hi.. thanks for letting me know.. I feel it might be because the left side was closer to the window during the day.. I have taken more pictures in a different lighting.. do you still feel the same?
It looks ok to me but I’m no expert.. thanks in advance

 

[momotaro21]

It looks beautiful!!! It must have been the light from the window, now it looks the same on both sides.

Thank u..Well i didn't do anything...I guess I'm lucky..lol...I am in US also and got this last September....

Is it Made in France or US? The reverse starts to grow on me but the chances of getting one MiF here is very slim. I have regular mono and just discovered cracking in the canvas and glazing.
