Hello all! I am looking for a little advice. I need a lightweight, all weather bag to wear crossbody or backpack style to work for when I walk (its a long, exercise worthy walk). I love my speedy 25 bandouliere, but its too small for this purpose because i sometimes need to carry papers and shoes, etc. I am thinking of getting the same bag in 30 or 35, what do you think? Are the larger sizes comfortable when heavy and carried crossbody? Thank you!

The speedy B30 DE is a great all weather bag. But depending on the shoes, they might not fit and I do find that it gets very heavy when full. The DE strap can be quite uncomfortable in that situation.

Thanks for your reply - much appreciated. I assume its the same for monogram, I prefer that pattern- strap would be the same? Maybe its worth it to also get one of the wider crossbody straps...

have you all also noticed that the speedy b25 became quit popular on you tube? I feel like all the popular youtubers got now 1-3 speedy b25 this year... They also have sometimes at least 2 prints and before that they all had a speedy 30 or speedy b30 / classic 30 and then they sold it (or not) and bought the speedy b25....
The speedy b25 become more and more popular ..maybe it will be even more popular than the speedy 30/ b30..Have you also noticed it?

It´s the same with alma bb and also other newer smaller bags like pochette metis, croissette, cluny,... which are also so popular even though they cost almost the same like a bigger canvas bag.. The trend is not new but it´s new for me to notice the popularity of the speedy b25 on youtube..

I have to admit I actually purchased my speedy b25 after watching several Youtube bloggers and reviews. I tried it and loved the small size. Since then I have also purchased a speedy 30 and love carrying it handheld. But when I'm shopping or traveling I always take my speedy b25. I think those ladies know what they are talking about!

I believe the mono strap is more comfortable than DE. However I don't own one myself to say definitively. A wider strap would be more comfortable to disperse the weight I agree!
 
have you noticed that the DA canvas is thinner than DE or mono? I‘ve tried on the speedy b25 and noticed that it is more slouchier than the other prints .. also : I see some on youtube (from USA) who got a speedy b25 with a different position of the „louis vuitton logo“ and the zipper (so a newer model) this year .. I‘m confused why there are two versions of it?! .. have you also noticed it? IMG_1512931776.340968.jpgIMG_1512931798.639468.jpg
 
Is it normal that my speedy 30 invaginates?
I just bought it in summer and I am really unsure about it. It's my first lv bag

I think I’m in love with a speedy 30 haha I was always into speedy b25/ classic 25 but since I tried the speedy 30 on I kinda like it:) maybe in damier azur (classic or with the strap) or world tour monogram with black leather.. let‘s see what I will decide as now I have so much time to think about it as I‘m on ban island until summer at least :) 2017 was an expensive year hahaha IMG_1513241441.701702.jpgIMG_1513241457.449229.jpgIMG_1513241477.168464.jpg
