I’m so sad! The fabric near the zipper of my DE Speedy b is tearing. The zipper got stuck today and I thought it was caught on something in my bag. It’s only four years old! [emoji31][emoji31]
Is it the zipper fabric or the canvas? If it is the zipper, I'd take it to LV and see about a repair. If it's the canvas, that's another story. Maybe crazy glue to stop the canvas from more damage.
 
It’s definitely the fabric. I found a few other spots where it’s tearing too. :(

Oh bummer. If you love your bag, take it to LV for repair. Not sure the cost but they can tell you on the spot. If you decide to go through with a zipper replacement, you just leave it with them and they send it off. You pay when you pick up your bag. You will receive a new dust bag along with your repaired baby!

I’ll go this week. I love that bag!!

I have a vintage bag and this happened to it as well- I took it to the store and they were able to repair it. It cost around $400 (this is a huge gym bag, so I would imagine yours will be cheaper) and they also replaced the leather around the zip. Works great now- I highly recommend it.

my dream bag is still the speedy (with or without strap) in Grey monogram. the keepalls are now there.
do you think there is a Chance that they will ever realese the speedy bags in that colour canvas?
I think it's been discussed a bit on the forum, and many people strongly feel the answer is no, because the gray monogram is menswear and the speedy is women's wear, and LV is likely always going to keep them separate.

Not monogram but LV did release a Speedy in Lilac epi leather. Haven't seen it irl but it looks grayish in the pictures.
