EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE SPEEDY

The Louis Vuitton Speedy bag is one of the most well known bags in the world.  We cannot keep these bags on our shelves, everyone is crazy for them. Whats not to love, the bag is a classic, it's practical, and beautiful. Here's a little bit of history behind our best selling bag.

 

In the 1930's the Keepall was designed for the elite to use as an overnight bag. Keepalls became so popular that the speedy 30 was created for everyday use.

The Speedy 30 refers to the bags measurement by length, so the bag is 30 centimeters.In 1965 Audrey Hepurn made a special request and custom ordered the Speedy 25, so she could use it for everyday. She described the bag as charming, classy and for all body types.

In the years to follow the size 35 and 40 were added, and recently the nano which is the smallest size. So there is literally a Speedy size to fit any of your needs, from travelling to a night out. 

The shape of the speedy bag was inspired by the Gucci Boston Bag, which also has a flat bottom and structured sides that are domed. This structure makes the speedy extremely durable and able to carry all your day to day essentials.

The Speedy is available in endless options of materials and prints. The most popular being classic monogram and damier. Here's just a few of the options... PS if you have one of these that you would like to sell, we will DEFINITELY take it off your hands ;)
