Anybody have peeling issues on the canvas of their PMs? I went to Subway to get my son a sandwich and when I got grabbed my PM noticed a glob of sticky stuff on it. Tried to brush it off but it just got bigger and eventually plopped off. Don't see any damage to the pattern or a lack of sheen in the spot if that makes sense.

Should be the infamous residue glue issue. Just wipe it and off you go !

Ok so I tried the bow, and I also did my usual wrap. I definitely prefer the pop of color on an all black bag. I am going to keep the classic wrap on this one because it is a work bag, but I am going to tie a bow on another bag. lolView attachment 4508330View attachment 4508331

Hello PM Club - I’ve just bought my PM
about a month ago and have aldready ‘ruined’ the handle. Of course I said to myself
‘I should wrap this’ but was waiting to find the scarf I liked the most. For those that have had their bags, is it worth replacing (my CA says it would be about $300) or should I just let it go because the patina will overshadow it.

Also, how long does patina take on this this bag? thanks!!!

My new baby! Gosh I haven’t posted on PF in years but had to show my off my new friend. I purchased her from a friend who bought her last year and only used her twice. She has kind of a musty smell and I am using baking soda to help clear the smell. Any other suggestions? I’ve been doing the baking soda for almost 2 days now and the smell has decreased slowly but it’s still there. Maybe I am not being patient enough

I would chill with the baking soda. Is there any place you can put it outside to air out?

I have put a drop or two of essential oil on a washcloth and then put it inside the bag for a day or two and that has helped in the past!

Hi guys.
So I was very lucky to get my hands on the mono PM.
Everything about seems more or less perfect - only minor things.
The allignment is almost on point and it seems very well made in general - no weird folds or anything in the canvas.
But the back compartment seems to be slightly longer than its supposed to be.
Its just a little longer than the middle compartment.

Would that bother you?

This looks just fine to me, but I went and checked out my own PM in empreinte to compare anyway. From what I see I believe that the back compartment is meant to match up quite perfectly with the middle compartment, which yours also is. So no reason to bother at all imo.. 90E276CF-F966-4FBB-A1FB-F1B882CB7290.jpeg
