I needed to read this.

I just remembered, designers do indeed make custom items. For example, LV will make their speedy bag completely of leather instead of the monogram canvas. I saw it on Ebay and thought it was a fake. The entire bag was made of that beautiful untreated leather which patinas into a dark honey tan. I called my nearest LV store and they said it is available through custom order only. It's called Vachetta.
