Louis Vuitton has been designing and making backpacks since 1994, with their classic Montsouris. Due to the popularity of this style, Louis Vuitton has released several recurring and limited-edition backpacks for both women and men. Luxury brands like Louis Vuitton have reinterpreted the classic school bag but thankfully maintained its functionality. Perfect for the hustle and bustle of modern daily life, backpacks are the perfect purchase for buyers and collectors alike who are looking to elevate their casual style for daily use.
An example of Louis Vuitton’s iconic craftsmanship is the chic and cute Palm Springs backpack. Available in the perfect MM size (pictured), a body of sturdy monogram-coated canvas with black calfskin trim is complemented with a front zipped pocket.
Another exclusive Louis Vuitton backpack is this stylish backpack finely crafted of grey titanium-coated canvas by Kim Jones for the 2018 Fall/Winter collection. The backpack is in excellent to like-new condition overall. The canvas and interior are in pristine condition, featuring a Vachetta top handle.
Kim Jones became the men’s creative director of Louis Vuitton in 2011. During his seven year tenure, he is widely thought to have reinvented Louis Vuitton’s men’s business. He collaborated with Supreme, Fragment and and the Chapman Brothers on wildly popular limited edition collections. The Louis Vuitton x Supreme collaboration led to lines around the world and the entire collection selling out in a single day. After Jones’ departure early in 2018, Louis Vuitton appointed Virgil Abloh as the new men’s creative director. Louis Vuitton backpacks for men also increased in both the models and overall popularity. The Titanium Backpack is a wonderful display of Jones’ leadership throughout his time at Louis Vuitton.
Highly collectible and valuable, Louis Vuitton backpacks are a smart, long-term investment as they remain a timeless piece that will always be both needed and wanted.
