Description
Model History:
Launched in 2012, the Pochette Métis quickly became one of Louis Vuitton’s most sought-after models thanks to its practicality and timeless allure. Revisiting the spirit of satchel bags, it draws inspiration from the house’s archives while meeting the demands of modern daily life. The model’s success stems from its compact yet generously compartmentalized silhouette, as well as its sober lines enhanced by the emblematic monogram. This 2017 version bears witness to the continuity of this design in the House’s tradition of craftsmanship.
Exterior Details:
The bag is made of coated, resistant and waterproof Monogram canvas, with natural cowhide finishes on the top handle and closure details. The patina of the leather underlines the vintage character of the piece. The flap is held by an engraved golden metal clasp, echoing the elements of historic trunks. An external zipped pocket on the back adds to the practicality of the model. The adjustable shoulder strap is also in Monogram canvas, with gold buckle and eyelets for adjustment.
Interior Details:
The interior is lined in soft, resistant dark brown microfiber and features three separate compartments for easy organization. There’s also a small embossed leather “Louis Vuitton Paris” label sewn onto the inside wall. The interior layout easily accommodates everyday items such as a wallet, phone and keys, while maintaining a compact size.
Product Condition:
The bag is in very good overall condition. There is a slight natural patina on the cowhide leather, characteristic of the normal aging of Louis Vuitton pieces. The clasp has a few superficial micro-scratches that do not affect the closure. The corners are slightly softened, with no pronounced rubbing. The canvas is intact, with no cracks or stains, and the inner lining is clean.
Care instructions:
Avoid prolonged contact with water or heat sources to preserve the coated fabric and natural leather. Clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth in case of superficial soiling. Store in its Louis Vuitton dust bag away from direct light when not in use.
