This video was filmed before I knew I hit the 1k subs 🥳 huge HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who is supporting my channel 🥰 I‘m so happy and excited 🥂

I really LOVE your videos. You have such a knack for telling the tale and rational for why you buy something and your thought process in doing so.

Congratulations on 1000!!! 🥂 I enjoyed this video so much! One of my first LV pieces bought new was that same white multicolor pochette cles, and I kind of wish I still had it. It was just so cute, wish I had appreciated it more. The following year I bought the Groom pochette cles, which I still have. I'll admit, I didn't use that one much at all until the past year or so. It is really excellent quality, it's from 2006. Thicker canvas is the main difference. It was $170 (limited edition). My other one is one year old, damier azur, and while I like it, it's way way thinner, and I had to return it once because the checkerboard pattern on the first one was misaligned. I use mine as bag charms! Or for coins. Not for keys.

Firstly, huge congratulations on reaching your 1k milestone!! Very well deserved darling! 🥳🥳🥳 I must be the only luxury KZfaqr who’s never owned a Pochette Clés or a mini pochette!! I bought a pochette clés for my mum’s bday a couple of years ago and I don’t think she’s ever used it. If she isn’t going to ever use it then I might get it back from her and explore using it myself! 😆 I need to see for myself if it’s truly worth the hype! Thanks for sharing and Happy Thursday! 🥰💕💕

Amazing information! Thank you for sharing your experience with this little cutie! 🥰

Great PSA, Mary! I think setting one's expectations of luxury goods and houses is a key first step into the world of luxury. I started buying Louis Vuitton when the quality issues were already a thing and my first ever purchase, a Victorine wallet, started to have glazing issues within the first 2 weeks. I was so disappointed. Even if I had no older piece to compare it to, I really expected for the wallet to be great, to be durable, to impress! Well that brought any illusions I had about Louis Vuitton crashing down lol. Since then, I've been cautiously optimistic with every piece I get from the brand. I don't expect to fall in love at first sight, but instead, kinda slowly bond with my pieces like you did with this pouch. It works out, more or less.😊 Whoop, whoop! 1k!📣🎉 Congratulations again, darling! You've created a vibrant and fun space here and this is very well-deserved!👏🍾🥂🥂

Congrats to you 1000 subscribers! 👏🏼👏🏼. I’m not the biggest fan of the key pouch I contemplate selling mine. Tfs

Congratulations on 1k! I think what makes these so sought after is that they're so hard to get 🤭 I think if they were readily available, people wouldn't rave about them in the way you described because it wouldn't be as exciting. I completely agree that their canvas used to be so much thicker. Their quality used to be so much better in general!

Great video. Thank you, Mary. I've owned this keypouch since 2019 and to be honest I rarely use it. Still I like it. Whenever I see it in the drawer, it makes me smile and reminds me not to follow every hype on YT. This has already saved me an enormous amount of money and that's why the keypouch is worth every cent to me.

Hi Mary! Congrats on 1k subscribers!!🎉💕☺️🇨🇦

Congratulations on hitting 1k!!! Great video, Mary! I bought my first key pouch in 2005. I used to put my train pass and some coins in it and had it attached to the D ring in my Cabas Piano. At the time, it was around $100 US. I thought it was worth it then. I sold that one after I bought the DA and DE pouches, because it was starting to fade. This was in 2021, and the price was up to $280. Really, if I didn’t have the original one, I would have been underwhelmed by it for the price. I have heard lots of people say that theirs isn’t stitched well, the zipper has a gap, or the canvas doesn’t line up, so yes, the quality isn’t as good as it used to be. Yes, please show your collection! I’m eager to see what you have. Stay safe! I’m worried for my friends in Europe. 😢

Love your video!!! I just ordered mine online and I am nervous about the quality and getting disappointed!!

CONGRATULATIONS ON 1K!!!

Great video Mary!!! I too enjoy the cles but I’m so glad I bought it when I did. Today’s price is more then I care to spend. I had never heard about scammers buying fakes and then returning them to the store. Does LV no longer recognize their own poor quality? If knockoffs are getting put into LV’s inventory they are really becoming careless and solely money driven. LV knows we customers will buy whatever they sell us even if it is fake.

Congrats Mari! 🎉 I also started calling it “key cles” until someone pointed it out 😂😂😂 I love your multi-color cles, amazing deal!! Unfortunately the pochette cles is no longer worth the money, but…people will keep buying it as an “entry” piece.

I bought mine in 2019 as a small wallet which also held my house key, I found it super convenient! But I don't like big wallets anyway. Now I have more keys so I use the 6 key holder but still use the key pouch for all my cards

I was so underwhelmed when I got this in December, I still am 😂 I wished I saw your video before. I considered returning it, but decided to keep as a collectors piece because of the price increases, I might sell it in the future

Your very first key pouch is so cute I love love love it!

Hi. I discovered your channel while I was doing "research" on the LV Key Pouch in Monogram Canvas and I stumbled upon this video. I enjoyed the fact that you told your story on how you were disappointed at first, but with the time you got to love it. This really helped me keep my expectations really low. And 2 weeks ago I was really lucky enough to score one on the website. I kept checking the page every few hours until suddenly I could add one to my cart. And I was super excited. Then it arrived. and boy was I disappointed on the extremely bad way it was done. The first thing I checked was the "overlap" of the symbols at the lower area and it was TERRIBLE, like really displaced, not some "invisible" 1mm, but almost 5 mm. Like a really bad fake. But on many pictures on the internet from people who have theirs on sale it was displaced. And then I was looking at it normally and on one side, the material was cut so bad, that everything was rotated. The monogram was not straight, at the place where the flowers meet the stitching to the zipper you could really see it was not straight. Super disappointed I immediately returned it. Really, for 230€ extremely poor quality. I bet there are fakes way better done. I was then last week to score a preloved one in amazing condition at a very very decent price 180€. The lady who sold it had also sent the invoice. I was shocked. She hat bought it mind/end October 2020 for 155€!!! Since then an almost 50% price increase and quality absolutely terrible. I was really disgusted. I mean nobody likes price increases, but at least if it would really be to ensure the quality stays the same.... If I ever decide to buy another LV piece (the key pouch was my fist one) I will make sure to get an older one, from the era when LV really did have quality pieces. Anyway, keep up with the great videos!! 🥰🌻

Hi Mary! "Key key" haha I had a "key key" and didn't love it at all. I sold mine and use a similar SLG that is a bit larger and fits my needs better. You made a great point the older pieces were so much nicer with thick canvas. I believe this could happen. I told you I sold my first cles, I do regret that because it was an older one and when I reordered a new one and immediately noticed the quality difference. I of course sent it back. Thanks Mary for such a wonderful video! You look lovely in red!!! XOXO

I love your honesty girl! I was tempted but I'll stick to my non designer brand that does the job just fine. So sad LV keep raising prices and their quality just gets worse 😢

I bought mine in 2018 and the price was much better then now! The wear and tear is not the best, had to get the clasp replaced and the monogram pattern is fading, im debating about selling it and I wouldn't repurchase at these price points now! At first I was super happy with it but now not so much. Thanks for the video 💕

I just came from your key pouch spa video. I bought a LV key pouch in 2020 because I was just getting into luxury and many of the KZfaqrs that I was watching were talking about how great this piece was (just as you said). I didn’t love it when I got it: I keep my keys on a Coach key ring given to me by my late mother, so I have limited use for the key ring portion on this piece, and the key fob for my (older) car is too thick to fit inside the pouch without warping the pouch. So that leaves using this piece for cards and cash, and for that purpose, I prefer the Celine card pouch I bought around the same time because it is slightly taller and has 2 credit card slots inside. I don’t think I will ever get rid of this LV piece, but I barely use it.

Red is a beautiful color on you ❤️ As Im watching your at 1.01K 💃 Congrats!!! And you have read my mind again! I got the azur key pouch and I was so disappointed with the quality in it at first. Also had concern with the azur pattern wearing off the corners. Then they discontinued it and I was sad I sent it back. Now I've re-ordered in Damier Ebene. I was still unsure but now I have had it some months it has grown on me. I use it as a bag charm.

I had purchased the Daisy Rose key pouch first to see if I would actually use it. I absolutely loved it so went for the LV (I’m an LV girl). I was SO disappointed. It was smaller than what I had and the stitching was horrible. Wanting to try one more time I exchanged it for another, same stitching issue. Returned it and never looked back. I’ve used my Daisy Rose every day for over two years now and it’s still perfect, and I still love it.

I gave up on the key pouches. I kept getting horrible quality and returned them. I went with the 6 key holder in damier ebene and I love it! It has space for my DL and a CC. Grab and go!

Excellent review I’m considering replacing my 6-key holder with the cles

Nice necklace Mari now going to watch the video.

It’s funny, I had your same reaction when I received my first LV piece in the mail, a mini pochette. I just stared at it silently, flipping it from front to back thinking, “THIS is what people are going crazy about?” Since then I’ve really grown attached to my LV pieces as they age, and I’ve gotten all 4 canvas key cles because I’m always in situations where I can’t have a purse and need something slim to be some kind of a wallet. I would have recommended the key cles more last year, but not at the current price.

Hi! I just ran to check my key key!!😆 make sure I didn’t miss imperfections 🥵(couple yrs old) PHEW🤧 It’s OK. flowers lined up, no exposed stitching 🎉 I seen so many pieces not line up perfect and inconsistent, w so many being made around the world, I found amazing how they can even get them so close 🙆🏻‍♀️ But for me it’s a close enough as reference to authenticate from a fake. It’s so true multi color is way thicker, even the hardware 😻 but color peels lol I love the canvas slg’s because of their long term durability, popularity for resale, and increasing value. The hardware sucks on it though 😂👏🏼 gold scratches so easily 🥴 Love your videos!!😻 Ty for the heads up honey 🙌🏼💞💓 Hopefully others will be ok too🤞🏼🍀 xo 💌

I just bought it AND immediately returned it. Mine was made in the USA AND as others have pointed out with the Made in USA Cleo, the inside bottom seam stitching is not tight. So sure enough I held it up to the light and it showed through from end to end. I happily returned it. Still glad I bought it because as it turns out my 2 keys and one key fob did not fit at all and I don’t need it for other small items as I have a mini pochette and card holder. So never again do I attempt to get a key clen

I have two newer key pouches and like and use them, but I bought them for $235 and honestly do not think I would spend over $300 for them. They are good pieces but not that outstanding. I have a few vintage Epi ones I got fromThe RealReal for around $100 each, not in perfect condition but much better value imo. I also have a vintage canvas cle and while the quality is good, it is a LOT smaller. It is difficult to fit even cards inside, never mind a key! Love your channel, congrats on 1000 subscribers!

Ah the succesfull flee market stories continue! 😆 I remember when I got mine a few years ago! It definitely was an influenced purchase as I had been hearing for YEARS how great and versitile piece it is and everyone NEEDS it. When I got it in my hands I was also a bit disappointed and confused. I can see strings of light through the stitching 🤣🤣 but yeah I started using it and now I can’t be without it 😅

great video!

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu den 1000 Abonnenten 💐. Ich würde mich wahnsinnig über ein Video zu deiner Alma bb in Epi (Rose Ballerine) freuen 🙃. Ich liebäugle mit ihr und hab aber nicht viele Videos dazu gefunden. Allgemein hab ich noch nichts in Epi und würde mich über Infos freuen ob diese helle Farben“anfällig“ ist 🙈. LG

Can I take your opinion . I just bought the bumbag . And I k confused should I keep it or sell it. Thank u

At $425 now in Canada, I think these are at the point where the cost just doesn’t make sense at all for what it is.

It's funny because I had the same feeling as I received my Mini pochette in Monogram last May: disappointment. I was asking myself if it was worth the money. One side looked like the canvas has been cut bigger than the other side and both sides together looked a little weirdly "wavy". I returned the piece to the boutique and the SA was surprised about my explanation!!??? Now, it's too late to think these pieces are worth it. But, you're right: other brands canvas pieces are more expensive than the LV ones.

I always thought the same re Key Cles! Kind of like chai tea = tea tea lol. I got the key pouch recently, and TBH I don’t think it’s their best high quality product; def their most popular due to price point though. The Gucci ones cost more, but they seem higher quality and more complex - they have piping around the seam and the inside is actually fully lined in fabric. I thought about getting a Gucci one instead for those reasons, but tbh the price point stopped me 😅

I went in store here in the U.S. to get the key pouch yesterday, the first one handed to me I checked stitching and I could see almost the entire way through the bottom, I had her check for pouches with tighter stitching, after checking 5-6 pouches she found one I was happy with, that wasn’t the issue, her manager came up and tried to lie to me about why the stitching was so spaced out and how it was normal!! I was truly annoyed she was trying to lie to get me to buy a defective key pouch, I couldn’t believe it, but lucky for me I’ve done a lot of research to make sure I wanted the piece first so I was aware of the issue.

I think everyone goes crazy for the key pouch simply because it's one of the most affordable ways to try luxury. I've own several over the years and currently own one in monogram but I only use them for bag charms because for me they're really not functional lol. I need to always have a handbag and full size wallet with when going out. There is no way I can fit everything I need in a tiny key pouch. I'm always amazed when I hear people say they just grab there keys, key pouch and go 😂. I wish my life was that simple.

I actually wanted to have it because i have the 6 key case and the reverse monogram card holder, so i wanted to have it so i can have 3 but when i went to the lv boutique, they have it in the store but the canvas looked crooked and it was very small, I couldn’t fit anything. I looked for the Celine one, it was kinda big for a small key pouch. I went to the MCM and the pouches were the perfect size and the best thing is u can take the key ring off it

OMG!! I totally agree with you!! 😂 I bought it because I watched a lot of KZfaqs and they all said “ it’s functional piece”, ok, I would then need to have it. After using for a month or two, ok it’s not functional at all for me hahaha. Lucky me I bought it in 2016, the price was still ok to buy.

can you do a is it worth it video on the mini pochette

I don't own one. I need the money for bags (and mini pochettes) 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've never been impressed by such a tiny slg and i guess i don't carry keys in my bag. I leave them in the car and in Adelaide with really hot summers, the pouch would probably melt.. I also can't get my head around having to open a pouch to get to my keys. Why take 2 hands to get to my keys when i could use one. If i really wanted it, the price wouldn't bother me but I'm glad i don't want it. Funny how Ash and you speak about the LV key pouch and the gucci one in the same day💕💕💕

I had a white multicolore wallet and the pattern totally rubbed off. It was bad.

Looking nice does have a price tag 🥰❤️

I do the same thing when I hear "key cle"... Key key??? Lol

Oh wow, they‘re that expensive now?! I bought mine in 2019 for 140€. And a mini pochette accessoires at the same time for 210€. 😳 I wanted another one of those but I’m afraid to look how much they cost these days.

Good afternoon mary🎀🌞🎀

Im thinking of getting the mcm key pouch. Mcm has incredible quality for price

The bag charm way just sold it to me 😆😝🤣😂🤣 I’m such a sucker.! I just don’t want to look for my keys so why not hang them on the bag.

The style of the Murakami cles is really pretty. I think they made a mahina one like that, too. Being so flat I wonder how functional they are, though. I love the style of the classic canvas cles. I do find it very functional since it holds cards and has the clip to use as a bag charm. Definitely worth it to me even with the current price.

I have a similar key pouch that is such a perfect size so when I received my LV cles in the mail I thought it was so tiny. I was thinking it would be the same size. I was extremely disappointed and didn’t use it for months. It had popped up on the website in the middle of the night a year or so ago and I panic bought it. 😳 Have you ever panic bought luxury? 😂You are the first person to admit it wasn’t love at first sight. So refreshing. I do love it now though. 💕Congrats again on 1000k

I am also disappointed in this item and I also mention it in my next video that should be up tonight. I ended up buying the Gucci one and I use the Gucci one instead. The Gucci one id a daily essential for me

wie viele Schlüssel hast du 🤣 damit du so viele Schlüsselanhänger brauchst 😝

I just returned mines . Not worth it

I mean you buy the cheapest item what do you expect? The more expensive items still have great quality

schon heftig viel Geld für einen Schlüsselanhänger 🤦🏼‍♀️ hab keinen 😝

💕😇

$375 not worth it

This is 100% accurate. I wanted this slg for the longest time. I happened to be on the LV website when they had JUST restocked it and I immediately purchased it! When I received it (last week to be exact 😆) I wasn’t prepared for the underwhelmed feeling I felt immediately 🫤. I didn’t expect that, and was a bit sad lol. I didn’t even use it for the first week because I didn’t wanna deal with being so disappointed in an item that I had wanted for so long and spent that kind of money on. Thankfully I pulled it out this week and I have felt better about it and got that excited feeling I was looking for the first time! It really is more of a preference and if you’re willing to come to terms with spending that $ for what it is. I figured I had been wanting it for so long and with LV steadily increasing the price point on it might as well of snatched it when I did! I think it was a perfect Mother’s Day present to myself 😌😍

Talk to much 🙄
