Just got an Iena MM in Mono. Love how lightweight it is but I don’t want it to keep sagging inwards and falling over. Any organizer recommendations?

I looked at Samorga but got overwhelmed by all the choices. What size and height is best and what’s the closest color to the interior? I’m also color blind so appreciate your help in advance! Pictures also greatly appreciated!
I bought an Original Club Vegan Leather Organizer for the Iena MM DE and changed my mind about using one at all. I still have it though.
 
View attachment 4116304 hello, this is my first time posting but had been a silent reader of this forum.

I have the iena MM and it can fit my 13” laptop and charger + pochette with small wallet + pencil case. All this approximately weighs 9 lbs.

My question is does anyone know what is the weight limit of Iena MM? I dont want to overweigh it. TIA!!


Yey!! I got a response from LV

“Thank you for contacting Louis Vuitton.

In regards to using your Iena bag as a laptop carrier, that should not be an issue. I do not have exact pound allowance for that bag, but the weight of a laptop and charger is acceptable. The exception to that would be, if the laptop dimensions did not allow it to fit inside the bag without strain.”
 
I'm sure this question has been asked at this clubhouse but I purchased the iena today .. MM in DE, and I'm wondering why the canvas feels different on this bag then all my other LV's. This one feels more rubbery? Is this the case for all Ienas?

The canvas on my Iena MM is very thin and has a “slick” feel to it that my older LV canvas bags don’t have.

I bought the iena less then a week ago ... have used it every day since. Today I notice these cracks?? Wrinkles?? On the straps. I'm so disappointed!!!! Went to LV and of course they said they are wrinkles not cracks. What do you all think? Is this wrinkles or cracks? Thought the iena straps are not as susceptible to cracks as the NF DE straps are.

Looks more like scratches to me... I have the same bag but it hasn't shown any wear yet probably because I don't use it every day. I think I should to see how durable the straps are.
 
Hi all!

I'm new to this forum. Thanks to ALL the previous posters! I think this thread was only at page 10 when I last visited, now we're at 30, woo-hoo!

I've also been lurking, getting tips from the Just Jennifer video on Youtube on LV Iena MM, went to the store earlier this year and took the plunge. Being a longtime Longchamp gal, this bag made perfect sense in terms of the tote style.

After 5 months, there's slight wrinkling on the straps and my shoulder DOES start to hurt if I have a lot of stuff in the bag and am carrying things for a while (unlike the Longchamp which doesn't tend to make the shoulder hurt because the bag is lightweight nylon and the strap for ME at least is comfier). Otherwise, I can't really complain.

It's a great bag overall, and it's also my first LV purchase. I've used it as a mommy bag, work bag- great for conferences, and also great for travel.

I like this bag mostly for travel, not really for my every day, but to change things up from Tory Burch and Longchamp and my one H bag. I also like how minimalist and functional with all the inside pockets and one outside pocket this style is as well. After seeing more pics, I may invest in the DA as well, maybe PM, or NOT, I do carry a lot.

Decisions, decisions. Hope this helps!IMG_0366.JPG IMG_0433.JPG IMG_0430.JPG IMG_0431.JPG IMG_0821.JPG

The iena is definitely my favorite bag right now. I was always a neverfull girl but I'm finding the iena to be a lot more practical and the straps are a lot more comfier then the neverfull. I'm getting wrinkles on the straps though with only two weeks of use so I'm giving it a rest now.

I'm with you on being a Longchamp gal. I have this exact same bag and like it a lot. I use it as an everyday/diaper bag and do find the strap a little uncomfortable whenever I wear tank top but is fine if I have a sweater or jacket on, which I think is expected because this is untreated leather. I've been thinking about the Azur as well just that I already have the Totally PM in Azur so I don't know it'll be too similar if I get the Iena in Azur but MM size. Haiz... I'd get the Azur if I were you only if I never had the Totally.
