Louis Vuitton - Monogram Saumur 35 Saddle/Shoulder Bag - Shoulder bag

The Louis Vuitton Saumur 35 is a celebrated archive classic famously inspired by equestrian saddle bags. Crafted from the house's iconic and incredibly durable Monogram coated canvas, this piece features a unique, highly functional double-sided design. The two spacious main compartments are joined and securely buckled together at the sides, offering exceptional organization and generous volume. The timeless brown checkerboard and floral motif is beautifully framed by signature Vachetta cowhide leather trim, piping, and a long, adjustable shoulder strap.

Measuring 34 cm in width and a substantial 25 cm in overall depth when fully expanded, this bag easily accommodates daily essentials, making it an ideal, hands-free choice for travel, weekend outings, or casual everyday wear. The versatile Vachetta leather strap (ranging from 100 to 118 cm) ensures maximum comfort, allowing for effortless crossbody or over-the-shoulder styling. It is an enduring, highly practical investment piece for any vintage luxury enthusiast.
