My 2016 Made in France started to crack and peel and so did my 2016 Made in USA.
Both of mine were Made In France. I just chalk it up to a design flaw. It's a lovely looking bag. I do wish it worked out. I miss my first one which was the original model. That one felt like it was made better.
Pouchette Metis is a beautiful functional purse and this is my most used bag , if you will buy it purchase it at the store not online and make sure to keep the receipt . The store will send the glazing issue for repair for free in case you will have a problem . ( the glazing on mine was repaired and I do not have a problem to date ) [emoji7]
By the way i think within a year of purchase , LV will shoulder the repair expenses .
Welcome to the club [emoji8] Have a great time wearing your new wonderful bag [emoji179]
Thank you for letting me know. I was thinking about ordering online, because I get kinda nervous in the shops. I feel pressured to buy or at least to quickly inspect the item and make a decision.
But if future repairs will happen and it's easier if the bag was bought in the shop...I will have to suck it up I guess.

I have had no issues getting repairs (without fees based on circumstance) from purchases I made online. It is easiest if you bring it to your Maison store for online purchases.
Hi everyone! I purchased a PM last monthly and noticed this little crack today. It's very small but noticeable, do you think I should take this purse into the store to get it checked out?
I've never had a crack on any of my canvas items, I just want my bag to be perfect and don't know if I'm overreacting..
I'd definitely let them have a look at it! Sorry to say that, but it doesn't look normal and you might still be able to exchange it for a new bag. Maybe you're more relaxed than me; I'd forever stare at an imperfection [emoji15] Good luck [emoji8]
I don't believe there is such a thing as a perfect bag and I don't let a slight imperfectons bother me. HOWEVER, I would return this to the store asap as it looks like a serious issue. That does not look minor and I wouldn't not classify it as normal wear and tear. There is NO way this should be cracking/splitting at the 1 month mark. Not Cool.
Thanks Ladies, I went to the store on my lunch break and 2 SA assured me that it was just where the seam ended and not a crack in the canvas. They did say that if it does bug me they can send it in for a check but I decided to wait a bit to see if it gets worst.
Hi, in all honesty that would totally bug me. I took a pic of my pm, I don't see any areas of the seam exposed like yours. You're right, that doesn't look normal because it isn't. I hope you can get an exchange. Goodluck . [emoji4]
I ordered originally online and got a factory defect but went past the 14 days though I did not use the purse . I almost did not get a refund . Glad I fought for it . Looking at the item and inspecting it at the store in person is the safe way to go and yes the repair is easier . Try to befriend an SA , there are a lot of the nicer ones hehe! I am just talking by experience but now I am on waitlist online for the world tour neverfull since it is out of stock in stores right now . [emoji23]. Just had no choice I guess.
