Hmm, now a few of you pointed this out, at first I thought it was just some visual illusion or sth, now I realized it's true! Hmm I actually don't know how I feel about it at this point....
Thank you for your replay. I love that the print is visible. I had a few of reverse in my hands last year but I didn’t keep because of the faded print and not matching my clothes but maybe I should start stalking it again. That PM reverse is perfect. I would keep this one!! Also it is year around bag not matter the weather.
Ok, so after waiting what seems like forever, I finally purchased the Pochette Metis in reverse last week in store, in Hawaii. However, I am confused. Tag says made in US, but date code in pocket says 50th week 2019 in France??? Literally confused!?!
In doing more research looks like US and France both have SD factory codes... strange but ok I guess.
Need help deciding! Got the Siena PM last week and absolutely love it. Have been interested in the pochette Métis but kept reading how hard it is to get. Anyways, made a phone call to Neimen Marcus this morning and they had one! So rushed over and bought it. It’s absolutely beautiful and seems to be an amazing condition. But now need to decide between the two! The Siena is more care free but the pochette Métis is the pochette Métis...
Can‘t you keep both? I like both and they are looking very different
definitely a tough choice to make...I snagged the PM too but don’t know if I want to keep it. Don’t want to plan too much as to what I want to carry in my bag....so conflicted on whether I keep it or return. Sorry not much help here
At first I thought I was crazy thinking the mono canvas looks very dull and faded, but after reading other posts this seems common. The canvas is significantly less bright than other mono bags I own. Is this the new canvas to prevent the cracking issues from before? Are some from this year brighter than others or are they all faded? Also the material seems a bit thick and almost plastic-y. Thoughts?
Have you found one with a brighter canvas? That is my issue right now, just got one that seems pretty perfect besides the fact that the canvas is dull and faded looking!
how were you able to get the reverse online? just lucky at the right time? no luck for me T_T.
My first three were constructed almost perfectly, but had that awful faded canvas. I finally went to the KOP store to collect three of my online orders and they had three more PMs in stock because it was so early in the morning. I bought one of them. I posted photos a few pages back of one of the absolute disasters they also had in stock that morning. It had such a bright canvas, but it was distractingly lopsided with crooked hardware.
I’m slightly paranoid after reading about so many returning, could anyone let me know if this looks ok? One front corner looks a little sloppy to me but not sure if it’s a big deal. I was surprised to see the middle separator inside doesn’t seem totally straight across in that it pushes out at the bottom or top, but maybe that’s the norm?

if it were my bag, I won’t be comfortable abt the front corner . And yes, the interior middle separator looks not right . Mine was straight
