The (Pochette) Metis Club

So excited I finally join this pochette metis club. I've been obsessed with pochette metis since last year but for the mono reverse. It is getting harder to get it now, even the store in my country applies bundle purchase (combine with other category but bag) specifically for mono reverse which I was okay with but there is no stock for months.
Last week I walked into LV store with no expectation of finding and LOVING this bicolor empreinte. I slept on it and decided to score this home 3 days later from another LV store since the store I got into the first place has sold out on the next day. So fast moving it got me scared of losing the bag haha.
What do you think of this? I have loved the bag so much and with this price I have high expectation for perfection, but the glaze feels sharp and uneven, some glaze even stick to the leather (a bit hard to see from the pictures since both are solid black). Do you think I should keep it or exchange?

Can anyone please tell me if the pochette Métis reverse has issues with the canvas cracking?
Hi, not sure if it’s still relevant to you but I had to take in my PM reverse monogram this week (from late 2018 MIF) as it sudden started cracking on both sides of the flap. I used it sparingly since I rotate my bags quite frequently. I was understandably upset (and still am to be honest) as PM in reverse mono was one of my most favourite bags ,though I must say my local LV Boutique was extremely helpful and made the process of exchange quite smooth and easy. I eventually opted to go with Bi Colour Empriente PM (black & cream) despite still loving reverse mono PM simply because I didn’t want to potentially deal with the same issue in a few years time.

The glazing looks nicer than most I've seen. Keep, but don't bend your flap back like that!:shocked:

It looks perfect. It's normal to be like that as when they apply the glazing it is soft to mould to it.
 
Hi Ladies, I am probably very late to the party, but is there a new type of stripe for PM? I saw this picture and it caught my attention. I find it very elegant and practical (no holes in your clothes from the classic one)
