I pulled out the Cabas Alto today to use it as a tote bag. I forgot how HUGE it is! But it's too bag it' s not made any more. Does anyone else use this monster bag, or is it just me? I hope my shoulder survives it!

I was thinking about buying one, but it is BIG!

i only got the mezzo ya it discontinue so sad....i hope it will come back again...

I regret selling mine.
I remember buying it, was only around $600.
I totally miss the large capacity, and the straps were nothing like the flimsy Neverfull straps....and NO sagging bottom, as it was pure Vachetta.

You're lucky. Don't let that one go.

Oh ya.. that's a big one! I love every bag in that collection though.. from the Piano on up!

Wow thats some big bag to carry around all day. I'm buying the cabas mezzo soon. I do wish they still made the alto its so perfect for traveling.

I wish I can still buy Cabas Alto from the boutique. That will be my first LV bag if it's still available. I guess I'll have to get the Saleya GM or Cabas Mezzo instead

My mom used to have it but she passed it on to my grandmother. Its HUGE and I think it was one of my all time favorites.

i have the mezzo and alto. yup alto is huge! i dont use it anymore-just thinking of getting the neverfull gm.... now im not sure.
the mezzo was my diaper bag- very sentimental for me. :)

Recently saw the new LV ads with Angelina Jolie with her Cabas Alto. Wonder if LV will re-introduce it.

^^I've heard that they may come out with a newer version in light of her LV ad.

I bought the Alto in pre-used excellent condition a couple of months ago...it IS huge - I will love using it for travel. If it was $600 when it came out in 2000, how much would it be now if they made it the exact same way? $1500?

I really want this bag, especially in Damier Ebene! It's a stunner and if it gets re-released, I'm so there!

That would be wise. There are so many inquiries about this bag. My chance to land this bag again, after selling it on a whim years ago!

I so agree. Time to add this one back to the collection!
