Oh no, I requested my SA to order this in for me as part of an Alma replacement. The speedy b/speedy in canvas does not come with a clochette although the empreinte/SC ones do.
The new speedy b/speedy came out in Nov. The only difference that I know is the chape (the part of the handle that attaches to the bag) on the new ones are puffier and the stitches are above the rivets rather than below it like the old ones.
Hello!
Just wondering, but has anyone ever received a dustbag for their strap? I have the Speedy B 35 in DE and don't always wear the strap. I do, of course, want the option of putting it on "on the fly" but I'm too nervous to just throw it in my bag without protection. I went to my local store and asked for a dustbag and was told they'd only give one for a vachetta strap. The SA told me I could try calling LV or open a chat session online with an advisor to see if they'd be able to approve sending me one. I did have luck with the rep I spoke to thru chat but I think it is pretty silly they don't ship one as a standard, regardless of the finish, to protect the strap.

Can't figure out how to quote lovelystars but I hope you see this!! 😁 I got the same bag, within a week of you and mine was a bit wrinkled up too. I've been carrying it full of stuff and it's gotten a lot better. My zipper is also wavy like that. I took it in and the SA said as the canvas loosens up the wave will too... Idk if that is true so I'm wondering if your wave has calmed down at all? I had her show me another one and it was also wavy... I didn't have the guts to ask to see another one so I'm just living with it for now and seeing what happens.
I read on another thread the other day that speedy b owners noticed more sag across the board with all sizes due to how the side rings hold the weight of the strap. When you carry it top handle, the weight holds a little different bc the canvas is being pulled in a different way.
Hope that made sense! Haha! If I can find the thread, I will link you to it!
Question--Hi Ladies,
Just wondering if this sag is normal with the 25? It is not really fully loaded. I thought the 25 should hold its shape better? TIA
Answer: I have the new Speedy 25 DE and bought a "base shaper" for it from on line vendor Pursebling for about $25. It has a level bottom now-you might like it-makes a big difference.

I agree ...mine looked just like this until I added the base shaper! Makes a HUGE difference
