I saw that too! The weird thing is, my Speedy B in mono has wrinkling of the straps and the side straps that are on the bag, but my de doesn't have it that bad, just a little on the strap . Not A deal breaker, I love that bag. Hth.

My DE Speedy B strap has zero wrinkling. Neverfull me however always get them. I adore heyyyjune. Her reviews are so cute. I think it depends on how each person uses their bags.

Oh that's good to hear! How long have you had your bag for? yeah she's so cute, and very informative! Which is why I'm kind of second guessing this particular purchase now, because I'm pedantic I don't know if it'll drive me crazy or not..

Yes! That's exactly what I'm talking about, but some of the wrinkling is along the entire strap, not just where the holes are...

For mines, its only wrinkled on the middle removable strap. The other two has no wrinkles whatsoever. I think it's unavoidable but it doesn't bother me because to me it's normal wear.

Do you guys find that your speedy bumps into everything? I have the speedy b 25 and it bumps into everything. Idk if it's because im more used to flatter bags like the Pochette Metis. I do feel that although the 25 is small its still bulky because its cubular. Please lmk your opinions [emoji5]️

Yes I have the 30 in the original stiffer durable canvas. It is 7 inches in width and in a crowd I do get bumped.

I've had mine for 2 years. If it got to be bad you could always order a new strap if the wrinkles bothered you. The bandouliere strap is relatively affordable and with DE you don't have to worry about matching patina.

Congratulations, she's beautiful! I plan to do the exact same thing when I get to Paris this July, for purchasing my first bag. :) Which location did you visit? I'll only be there for one day and am trying to decide if the Montaigne or St. Germain location is better. I don't want to have to wait in line at the Champs Elysees. Also contemplating getting my speedy b 25 DE hot stamped... has anyone done that in Paris?

I went to the Champs Élysées location. I actually went on the first day I arrived in Paris as well! Popped into the store around 3pm and there was a minimal line.

We tried to get my dbf pocket organizer hot stamped in Rome, and it took about 30 mins? Unfortunately, due to the slight language barrier, the SA misunderstood him, and heard the letters incorrectly. However, she was more than accommodating to fix the mistake. They sent another SA to grab it at the other location in Rome, and bring it back along with another item I was interested in. They offered us coffee while we waited for the new pocket organizer. We would have had them stamp the replacement as well, but unfortunately, we had a plane to catch!

Wow! So glad they fixed that for you! Just curious, do you remember what your VAT refund was from your Paris speedy b? Trying to get an idea of how much this beauty will cost me... hoping i can buy a bag charm too while I'm there! [emoji6]
