Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandoulière 55 in Brown Monogram Canvas with Vachetta Leather
An enduring Louis Vuitton travel icon, the Keepall Bandoulière 55 combines the house’s instantly recognisable Monogram canvas with a generous, lightweight silhouette designed for travel.
Crafted in brown Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone brass hardware, this vintage piece features twin rolled leather handles, a double-zip fastening and the characteristic leather bands running around the body of the bag. The spacious interior is lined in brown textile and offers ample room for travel essentials.
First introduced in 1930, the Keepall has become one of Louis Vuitton’s most recognisable luggage designs. The Bandoulière version was designed to accommodate a detachable shoulder strap, while retaining the supple construction and distinctive rounded profile of the original Keepall.
Condition
Great Condition.
Natural Vachetta leather shows a gentle aged patina with light water marking and darkening to the handles and luggage tag. Hardware has minor tarnishing and oxidation, consistent with the age of the piece.
The Monogram canvas presents very well overall and the interior is in excellent condition, remaining exceptionally clean for its age.
Please refer to the photographs for a detailed view of the condition.
