This classic Louis Vuitton Saumur 35 is a celebrated vintage piece inspired by the equestrian saddle. Crafted from the house's iconic, ultra-durable Brown Monogram coated canvas, the bag is defined by its unique double-sided design. It features two spacious, independent compartments strapped together at the sides with natural Vachetta leather belts, offering exceptional organization and a distinctive heritage silhouette. Measuring a generous 35 cm in width, 27 cm in height, and expanding up to a 24 cm depth, this "35" size is perfect for use as a robust daily carryall, a travel messenger, or a chic diaper bag. The front and back compartments are both secured by Vachetta leather flap belts with gold-tone buckles. The bag is equipped with a wide, fully adjustable Vachetta leather shoulder strap equipped with a shoulder pad (ranging from 105 to 123 cm), allowing for a comfortable and secure crossbody or long shoulder carry.

Condition Details Grade AB (Good Vintage Condition) Exterior: The Monogram canvas is incredibly resilient and remains in excellent shape, maintaining its vibrant pattern and structural integrity. The Vachetta leather trim, piping, and belts exhibit standard vintage signs of previous daily handling (使用感 / 良). As expected with vintage Vachetta, it has developed a warm, honey-dark patina, showing typical water spots, surface scuffs, minor edge/corner rubbing, and gentle creasing. Strap: The adjustable Vachetta leather shoulder strap remains securely attached and fully functional, showing typical vintage creasing, edge wear, water marks, and natural softening/darkening from regular crossbody wear. Hardware: The gold-tone brass buckles and rivets remain functional and secure, exhibiting typical vintage fading, tarnishing, and green oxidation (verdigris) common to vintage LV brass hardware. Interior: The canvas-lined interiors of both compartments are generally clean, well-maintained, and fully usable, exhibiting standard minor signs of pre-owned vintage usage and gentle aging.
