Hi! Thanks so much for visiting my channel! I hope this video of the Pochette Métis is helpful for those of you who might be on the fence about buying this bag. I am very happy with it!! Please LIKE & SUBSCRIBE - would really appreciate it!! xx
i had the reverse monogram before and it had glazing issues... i sold it... i was on the fence of getting it again. 2 yrs later, I got lucky this holiday season. I kept refreshing my wishlist & they had it in stock. i ordered it but the bag was defective. i returned it and I got it again thru the website 2 days after. I called client services to ensure that they inspect it thoroughly before shipping it. finally, I got the perfect one just in time for Christmas! ❤️ couldn't be happier ....
Great review and comparison video. Thank you. I thought I was the only one who thought the older models are made from a thicker canvas with a hard rigid strap. My 2015 model is so stiff! Yours looks so soft and light, lucky you 🥰!
Great review! I got a MIF too. I did a comparison of the MIF to MIU and MIF was definitely softer and squishier like yours. I hear they came out with a “new model” with a new model number and it is supposedly very stiff canvas and therefore boxier in look although all the details are the same. I guess time will tell which is better. ❤️❤️❤️
Watched because I can’t get enough of this bag. Stayed for the MM voice ❤️😍😆 I love this and have in the Empriente. Only because I’m scared of the vachetta. But I still love looking at it. Great video! Thanks for sharing! ❤️
I personally don’t like LV bags at all except their wallets if I choose to buy. I think everyone buys it for the logo, I mean YSL or Prada, Fendi and Dolce&Gabbaba make better bags at much cheaper. If you can’t take a such an expensive bag if it rains,I never understand why people are happy to pay the price. I’m new to our channel and like your elaborative videos 🤗💕
Welcome to my channel! 💕 It’s funny you say that, because I was never into LV either until the Pochette Métis! It’s the only LV bag that has truly captured me over all these years and made me want to buy it. I am really enjoying it. I love the LV canvas for its durability and water resistant qualities. It’s also lighter than leather. But yes, the other brands you mention make great bags too... especially YSL. They are so under rated!! 👏 Thanks so much for watching!
Going to Paris early June and looking to purchase the pochette metis. Can you do (or have you done) a 3 year review on this because I'm curious on how the Apple guard worked for you and if you still love it.
I love the PM! I have one in pink leather and love it sooo much!!! ❤️❤️Love the compartment and the way it looks! I do put my pm agenda in it! Great piece!!! 💕❤️😍
Hopefully you don’t end up having problems with it later down the line because Louis vuitton will not do any repairs on it if you have “altered” it which is spraying the vachetta with the spray. None the less, love love love the bag!
Yasmin El Malti don’t worry they will still honor a defect ..spraying it will not cause the glazing issue. Also how would they know you sprayed it? Protect it and hope for no issues :)
Hi there! Where can I find the uth code inside of the bag? I think I might have found a legit one thrifting but don't know where to look for the code :/ Thanks
Hi!! Thanks for the review!! Have been hearing lots of negative review about the bag.... was kind of in dilemma whether to getting the bag or not. Thanks for sharing that spray thingy, so far is there any stain since then?
Hi dear! Indeed, this bag has had its share of issues! I waited over a year to get mine as I wanted to wait out all the quality issues and recalls. Luckily, mine is doing a-ok! There is no staining on the vachetta leather. The Apple guard spray protects it, but it still will patina over time. Hope that helps! Thanks so much for watching! xo
Hi I’m pretty petite only 5 ft I’m concerned about the bag being to big looking on me. How tall are you and can do some mod shots with this bag? Thanks again love all your videos
My pochette metis that I just recently purchased - I can’t squeeze both round ribbits to open. Only one ribbit will move and it will open the bag after numerous tries. Should I exchange it for another one
Good for u that u got a good one =) Im still thinking to get one however nothing here in sg. Need to b in a long waiting list =) I can only buy it from resellers. I need to see and feel it before i decide to get one
Jachinoy15 Aww good luck dear 🍀 - I hope you find your perfect one soon!!! I totally understand what you mean about wanting to touch and see it in person! 👍 Thanks so much for watching!! 💕
I got the PM yesterday and I was disappointed to see it was the Made In USA😫. All of my LV’s are made in France and Spain. I just feel it lowers the value later for reselling? I will be spending my day calling around to see if any LV stores have the Made In France.
Aww good luck dear. I know it’s hard to find a MIF PM nowadays bc they’re making them out of the Texas facility now. I know someone who tried 5 different PMs and eventually settled on a made in USA one.
hello catwalk city A little update: I ended up finding two PM at my LV store. One was made in France and one in Italy! I ended up going for the Italy one bc it looks to be more structured and well made! Thanks for your videos. They have helped me In my decision.
This is one of my favorite bags. I was able to get a new bag last year when my original one was thankfully in the batch that got recalled. My bag was in terrible condition, (mostly from my use, I think.) I much prefer this one vs my original bag from 2015. On a random note, I was really impressed when I saw someone walking so carefree on the UWS today in the light rain with their PM. I was concerned for her vachette and she was completely unbothered. Maybe she used apple guard! :)
So Coco Oh my goodness, is it possible that you saw me?? I was walking around the UWS with my PM yesterday!! 😂 And yes, the appleguard works!! Enjoy your newer PM! 😘
That would be tooo random and hilarious if that was you! I guess if you were anywhere near the UWS Trader Joe’s yesterday then it’s entirely possible! Enjoy your soggy Halloween!
Thank you for sharing. What are your thoughts on protecting the hardware? I heard about handbag haven they sell a film to go over the hardware to avoid wear and scratches. I just bought the PM just wanted to know your thoughts on it thx
gigil1212 Hi dear! I worry more about the vachetta than the hardware. I sprayed with Apple guard and it’s looking great. As for the scratches on the hardware, I don’t mind one bit! 😉 Thanks so much for watching!
Hi! Just subscribed and found your videos helpful! I also have a new Pochette Métis and love it. Do you store your laying down on its back or upright? Thanks in advance!
How’s was your vachetta in the bag now?Planning to get one too as I got the reverse monogram the other day.Love love love the reverse and the monogram❤️
Love how my vachetta looks!! The apple guard spray worked really well. It has a very subtle patina. You can see recent photos of my PM on my Instagram xo
Maybe you can try to contact the distributor whatsapp: +8613253603619 or go to this website bagbag123123.x.yupoo.com, I have purchased several pieces here, 1:1 genuine high quality reproductions.you can try it。
@@Gotchalaboom It’s water resistant, scratch resistant - you can wear it in most weather conditions. It’s quite low maintenance. This is precisely why LV used canvas for all their luggage pieces. If you’re looking for leather, LV wouldn’t be the first place to look.
Honey, you have the old model. I can tell it at the back compartment. At the old version you can see that the canvas ends stortly, the new model has "longer canvas" sorry, my English is not so good. I hope you understand what I mean. I had the old version from January 2019 and sold it to get the new model, which I have now.
Naselle C. Ah, interesting! I didn’t know that - thank you for sharing. It sounds like LV keeps making newer and better models, so hopefully that’s good news for anyone looking to buy a new one! Still, I love mine just the way it is! 😊 Hope you enjoy yours as well! 😘
hello catwalk city if it makes you feel better I saw a comparison with the old and new, both brand new, and the old looked better. Softer, less boxy. Glad you were able to get your hands on one regardless!

Where did you purchase your bag from?
Purple Rain Hi! I purchased mine at the 57th St store off 5th Ave in nyc. Good luck and thanks for watching!!
hello catwalk city Do you have a Client Advisor that you work with? I’m trying to find one that’s MIF.
Purple Rain Yes! I recommend asking for Janet (in case there’s more than one Janet, she’s Asian). She was super helpful and patient. Good luck!
hello catwalk city! Do you have her business card? If so, do you mind sharing her contact information?
Thank your pointing out that LV improved the quality of this bag.
Jodessa Holderness You’re welcome!! Thanks for watching!! 😉
I really appreciate how you addressed the past problems with the bag, wonderful that LV fixed
the issues. 💗💕
Beautiful bag. I am picking one up today. I pray all of the issues have truly been fixed. I will order some apple spray as well

SueMae Everyday 😘
Great video thanks. Very helpful I’m considering purchasing this bag, well done review!
I’m a Pochette Métis Addictt. Got the reverse, noir and finally able to get the original monogram. The monogram is made in Italy but I didn’t care.
Phoebe Mirar 👏 👏 👏
Italy is simply the best country for handmade bags. Nobody else has the knowledge of italian artisans. You should be happy of this.
I have all 3 of those as well! It’s my absolute favorite bag of all time.
I have this bag in the Infrarouge color. Love it ❤
Beautiful bag! I just got lucky and ordered mine this morning. SO excited to get it!
I just ordered one on fashionphile last night after giving up getting one new! Thanks for all the info!

I agree. I got one for

Jazzy LoVe Yay!!! Congrats!! 👏
Great review. Thanks. Can I ask what nail polish colour and make you are wearing please? It’s gorgeous. 😘
I love the PM! I have one in pink leather and love it sooo much!!! ❤️❤️Love the compartment and the way it looks! I do put my pm agenda in it! Great piece!!! 💕❤️😍
Yoshea Lux what other sizes does it come in ?
Miss Eileen The Pochette Métis only comes in one size
Hopefully you don’t end up having problems with it later down the line because Louis vuitton will not do any repairs on it if you have “altered” it which is spraying the vachetta with the spray. None the less, love love love the bag!
Kim G that’s why I did not sprayed my strap. 😬
Are you sure? So if I spray the vachetta on mine, and later on have glazing issues they will not repair it?
Yasmin El Malti don’t worry they will still honor a defect ..spraying it will not cause the glazing issue. Also how would they know you sprayed it? Protect it and hope for no issues :)
Hi there! Where can I find the uth code inside of the bag? I think I might have found a legit one thrifting but don't know where to look for the code :/ Thanks
Great video. I appleguard all my vachetta as well. I prefer the very light look to the vachetta.

How do you ensure your LV products are made in France while buying in the US especially online? Do you have any tips?
Good for u that u got a good one =)
Im still thinking to get one however nothing here in sg.
Need to b in a long waiting list =)
I can only buy it from resellers.
I need to see and feel it before i decide to get one

hello catwalk city OMG Yes!!! 😳 I was walking with my daughter to the TJs on 93rd on the same block as the Party City. Small world!!!
@@sococo1464 Aaahhhh!!!! This is crazy!!! LOL. Next time you spot me, please say hello!!
What is glazing? Thanks
Hi there! Does the first pocket (front) scrunched up on both sides (inside)? Mine is like uneven stitches and it doesn't feel smooth (the stitches).
Thank you for sharing. What are your thoughts on protecting the hardware? I heard about handbag haven they sell a film to go over the hardware to avoid wear and scratches. I just bought the PM just wanted to know your thoughts on it thx
gigil1212 Hi dear! I worry more about the vachetta than the hardware. I sprayed with Apple guard and it’s looking great. As for the scratches on the hardware, I don’t mind one bit! 😉 Thanks so much for watching!

Great review
Žana Žaki Thanks so much!!
How’s was your vachetta in the bag now?Planning to get one too as I got the reverse monogram the other day.Love love love the reverse and the monogram❤️
Love how my vachetta looks!! The apple guard spray worked really well. It has a very subtle patina. You can see recent photos of my PM on my Instagram xo
hello catwalk city Is it true that if you spray it and afterwards have glazing
issues, they won’t repair it?
Its beautiful❤️ How much it cost? Thanks fir sharing with us
Blue 10 it retails for $1830.
How did you end up finding this bag? Did you just walk into your LV store and they had it?
Maybe you can try to contact the distributor whatsapp: +8613253603619 or go to this website bagbag123123.x.yupoo.com, I have purchased several pieces here, 1:1 genuine high quality reproductions.you can try it。
Great video!
Mona619 Thanks so much!!
Do we know if this is discontinued? I keep checking and it’s been sold out ?
Nope, not discontinued! Just hard to get your hands on!
Try around 3 pm online!
Hey! Did you ever find one? I got super lucky this morning at 9:30am and ordered online. It’s again sold out though when I check.
Great review thanks for sharing! New subbie here !
Lee Lee LV Thanks so much!! 😘
❤
Will an mm agenda fit?
Yes it does...I tried it 🥰
Can you imagine this bag is not made of leather but coated canvas?
Correct. Many people go for LV specifically for the canvas because it’s more durable than leather. 😊
@@hellocatwalkcity why is it more durable I have seen it cracking on several bags?
@@Gotchalaboom It’s water resistant, scratch resistant - you can wear it in most weather conditions. It’s quite low maintenance. This is precisely why LV used canvas for all their luggage pieces. If you’re looking for leather, LV wouldn’t be the first place to look.
@@hellocatwalkcity but it’s not leather it’s upgraded canvas and it will crack, leather does not crack? It’s not durable in my opinion
@@Gotchalaboom If you’re interested in the Pochette Métis in leather, you can get the empriente version instead.
Can you do a purse review in mandarin?
Honey, you have the old model. I can tell it at the back compartment. At the old version you can see that the canvas ends stortly, the new model has "longer canvas" sorry, my English is not so good.

Glad you were able to get your hands on one regardless!
