Hi, i just purchased this purse to use as my work bag, but my lap top is slightly too big. You mentioned that your laptop fits. What laptop do you have?

I've been thinking about upgrading my work bag and LV's V tote seems to fit the bill:
https://fr.louisvuitton.com/fra-fr/produits/sac-v-tote-mm-monogram-nvprod1170022v

It has a zip top, is big enough to hold my laptop, and has an adjustable shoulder strap. The black empreinte and the monogram versions are equally appealing, I'll have to compare in person, although at the moment I'm leaning towards the monogram. I'm curious too, because in the details section, the empreinte version is described as having four feet, but there's nothing about feet in the Monogram version. I will have to ask my SA to check. The price isn't over the top for either version and when looking at the photos in detail, it says Made in France, which is also a plus point. I do wish the strap was a smidge wider, but it's not super thin, so I can live with it as is. (P.S. I tried to do a search, but everything with a V came up, including every mention of Vuitton... :-s ) The bag also looks like it would come in handy for travel.

I'm mulling over getting the Sac Blanche in black as well, which has a wider strap, so I could always do a swap.

Your thoughts appreciated!

Actually my laptop didn't fit. The measurements listed for the bag say it's 36 cm wide, which would have held my laptop, but the zipped opening of the bag is barely 29 cm wide, so we couldn't make it fit. I got the bag anyway and used it frequently before lockdown, but I still depend on my tried and true black Prada Vitello Daino tote or my large Longchamp Pliage to carry my laptop.

My mono MM came today. Love it!!! Goes with everything and no worrying about vachetta. It’s big but still looks like a handbag vs luggage. Hiding it until Mother’s Day and then I’ll take some pics.

Hi! I saw that you got yours on Tuesday. Congratulations! I got mine today (Saturday) and was curious if your bag was made in the USA? Mine is and I wonder if the ones made in France or Spain are better designed than USA. Your thoughts? Thanks!

Took this last week. Im plus size and 5.4". I was surprised it was not heavy. I wanted to go back and "weigh" with my things in it but the store was on max capacity because of corona restrictions. Couldn't wait. But empty it was a lot lighter than the soufflot mm i also looked at. Must say it's very soft against your body. I will be buying this in December/January. Saving up for it.
This was my choice vs Montaigne empreinte mm, soufflot mm and Empreinte Maida hobo(new)

It seems you have the V tote covered! Can you help me. Im deciding on the v tote mm between canvas and empreinte. I mostly wear casual clothes.
I do love empreinte and would purchase in marine rouge if i decide to go that route. I tried on the canvas and do love that too. There was no empreinte to try on.
I there a lot difference in weight etc. and styling, formal or casual?
What would you suggest.
And also i have a turenne mm and love the size. Do you perhaps know the turenne for size difference.
Sorry for the long message.
Anyone can chime in here and help please.

I bought the empreinte and sold it, I had the marine rouge... I love my canvas bags and have had no issues with this bag and I use it every day...no wear on the canvas or corners. I always get concerned about the light print of empreinte and the wearing of the corners.I just don’t love empreinte anymore. I have the turenne mm, I have not used it in awhile....I love the bag so if you want it, I would try it!!
