LV Denim Keepall Bandoulière 50 FW25

[xsunnyd]

Hello!

Just wanted to get some thoughts on this Keepall. I've been looking for the right print for years, and while some really nice ones have popped up in the past, I either missed the boat or they were too much to justify.

However... I just saw this one for the upcoming collection and my jaw dropped. The denim patchwork is just stunning, and I have been feeling LV's denim looks heavy lately.

But naturally, due to the price, I've got to think about whether it's worth it. The leather is nice because it's (somewhat) stain resistant and can be wiped off. The denim is going to absorb any liquid it comes into contact with. I'm not much of a messy person and fairly careful with my things, but it is something I thought about. Accidents can always happen.

I do plan to use this only for road trips, and don't plan to bring this on a plane with me because I don't think my brain could relax enough to put this one the ground under a seat. I prefer my more hardy bags/backpack.

What do you guys think about this material in terms of longevity/wear? Appreciate all thoughts and insights!

Personally I think the actual bag looks too messy and fringey for me, but denim should be relatively hard wearing and possibly easier to clean if dirty? I don't own a denim bag from LV though, but the vintage pieces tend to look like they held up relatively well...
