Hi,ladies.Im still new here.Im looking for a nice LV bag as a multipurposed bag ,mainly for my yoga or gym and maybe pampurse bag too.Im worrying about its weight but normally I'm a light packed person.Im 170 cm(5'8") 58kg (120lbs) .Im eyeing on a keepall 45 in either macassar or damier graphite,because I don't want to be worry when my sweaty hands grabbed its handle.

Please advice me.Is the keepall a good choice for that or anything else?Thanks in advance :smile1:

I actually use a Speedy 35 as a gym bag, and I find that plenty big for what I bring to the gym. If you're planning on putting a yoga mat into your bag, I imagine that will be the biggest/bulkiest thing you need to think about. If your yoga mat fits in a Keepall 45, I think it'll be a great choice for the gym. Personally I'd go Damier Graphite for it, but only because I looooove that print.

I use a keepall 45 in damier cobalt for my gym bag/travel bag/busy week bag. Really is a great bag for multiple uses. It holds so much and I don't have to worry about rain or dirt or sweat or anything like that when I 'm using it. Vachetta would be a nightmare if you have any intention of being rough on this bag. My workouts aren't always at a gym so being able to throw this bag in my trunk or drop in on the ground helps a lot. Yes...I said it...."on the ground". .I have placed my keepall on grass, dried up mud and moist benches. I expect to get a lot out of a bag like this...and I certainly have....looks as good as the day I bought it a year ago.

I find the 45 size is perfect for clothing, gym shoes, toiletries, a towel and hair supplies...but I can also use it on normal days when I have a full size laptop and documents in tow. I could never pull off a keepall 55 as a day bag because it is just too darn big. Hope this helps. Love the keepall 45.

How long did you leave it in the trunk? Did you do that in summer too? I'm just curious because I might have to leave my speedy in the car sometimes due to my job. I'm just afraid it will melt. Thank you.

I have left my keepall in the trunk all day, and in the summer, but I live in San Francisco and it never gets that hot, and on the hot days my trunk tends to stay pretty cool (volvo s60) If you are in the midwest, that may be a different story.

thank you for your reply.I agreed with you that if i would put in a yoga mat in the bag it must be a huge bag indeed.I love the damier Graphite too.Just gorgeous in a subtle way
Too bad there is no DG print in the speedy.

Woww,you have made me want to head out to the store and buy one right now.That was so very useful suggestion of you.I really want a worry free bag and this seems to be my ideal answer.I live a humid and hot climate country so i cant leave it in my trunk for all day.Maybe i need to carry it around.


How is the weight of your keepall? Do you think it isnt too heavy to shoulder it around as a pampurse bag too?

I also live in the hot climate zone too.I dont dare leaving my bag in my hot-oven trunk or else it would melt.Altho if not that bad but i still believe it can be shortening its life span less or more.
