Hi guys! I just bought my mono pochette Métis last week! Very excited. Except the inside flap is wrinkly... is this normal?? It is the new model PM

NOPE. Should not be wrinkled like that. New model and still the workmanship is off on this bag. I would return that one and wait for another.

It is such a popular bag, hence the reason why LV is trying to resolve the issues. They pump them out and can't keep up with the demand, and so this happens. The latter is just my opinion of course.

Does anyone who owns the PM reverse not like the black leather handle? I love the reverse color scheme but somehow the black leather and high contrast really throws me off, I feel like it doesn’t complement the light brown reverse (would prefer a nice patina-ed vachetta).

Oddly, I love the black leather on my monogram Neo Noe, so maybe it’s the tone of brown on the reverse that bugs me with black?

I still love the bag and am keeping it, but putting a leopard bandeau on the handle to warm it up more...

What are y’alls opinions?

I love the black handle. It adds a little pop. I wear a lot of black, so the handle helps tie in the bag with black outfits and not just be an all brown bag. I am not a fan of the vachetta because it rains a lot in NY and water stains on vachetta look terrible to me.

I went to return my mono pochette Métis (previously pictured with the wrinkles on the inner flap) and the store had just received another mono AND reverse that morning!! It was my lucky day!! But then there was a spot on the back of the reverse, looks like it was from the glazing. The SA said she couldn’t sell the reverse due to it. But good news, I was able to replace my previous mono PM with a new one that I am very happy with :)

Hi went back to see your photo. I also just purchased mine, like 11 days ago. Ive been using it since then, when i saw your post, I visited my inner flap, its the same as yours. I think it happens because the canvas is being stretched? What did the sa say about it?

She pretty much said there is nothing wrong with the bag. That due to the stitching of the canvas, it can create those folds/wrinkles. The one I exchanged it for has very small folds/wrinkles that are hardly noticeable. The SA said if was going to bother me that I should return it and get another one.
