Hello..I've been hunting my pochette for more than a year but voila, got it the other day..So happy to have it..Thank u for letting me share y baby

Ahhh I remember when I got my exact PM and he was so clean and crispy LOL. Now he has aged after two years after all the casual and office days we had and a couple of trips mind you. But he is still in good shape! Enjoy!
 
Hi,
My purchase just came in yesterday and want to inquire if this bag looks normal? Everything looks good except both sides of the bag seems to be very wavy? bunched up? not sure how to express it but seems messy, could you pls check out the photos and let me know if this is normal and how usually it looks?

So I was able to get my hands on 3 different Pochette Métis in mono over the last two weeks.. 2 were the old model number and one the new model number. I spent quite some time going over the bags and indeed the canvas is different on the new model. The new model canvas is much stiffer than the old model. The monogram pattern seems a little brighter as well. There is a bit of texture to the newer canvas too. The new model bag looked perfect but was more rigid and stiff. I ended up choosing the softer canvas ( old model) as I preferred it and the back zipper was much smoother! I know that everyone has their own preference about canvas and just wanted to share my experience with comparing the two

View attachment 4529681 View attachment 4529682 View attachment 4529683 So I did not learn my lesson and got another pochette metis this time in leather. I’m listing it for sale and was wondering if this is considered regular wear and tear? I don’t want to sale a defected bag but if it is regular wear and tear I will price accordingly.

It's just usual glazing cracks. If you want, you can bring it back to LV for reglazing but they would most probably charge you.

I would bring this in to LV, the bag is known for this problem so they will either offer a repair or replacement. At this point it isn’t very bad on your bag which makes me think that a repair would be more likely.

Congratulations!! And Thanks for the update. I’m still waiting for mine to be delivered. I don’t mind having a stiffer canvas as I already have soft canvas on Neonoe, mini and speedy reverse.. :smile:

I agree with others. Before you sell it try bringing it to the store. See if they will replace for something else or repair it.

I think they just wary a lot.

I for my hands on two aswell and one was almost like yours on one side. The other was more “firm”... so think it depends on the artysan.
