The story behind this Louis Vuitton Brooklyn PM bag
Louis Vuitton has embodied the culture of travel since its inception. In 1888, Georges Vuitton designed the Damier canvas to protect his creations from the first counterfeits. The Brooklyn bag pays direct homage to that era. Its front features a large metal plaque whose typography echoes that of a historic advertisement for the brand. This shoulder bag was designed to meet the needs of urban mobility by offering a flat, ergonomic shape. It is part of a heritage-inspired approach whilst offering functionality suited to everyday life.
Exterior, trims and shoulder strap of this Brooklyn PM
This model has a rectangular shape measuring 27 cm high by 23 cm wide and 6 cm deep. The main body is crafted from Damier Ébène coated canvas, which combines dark brown and tobacco-coloured squares. The front is dominated by the brass ‘Inventeur’ plaque with a dark gunmetal finish, held in place by four engraved rivets. A brown braided fabric shoulder strap ensures comfort when worn. Its length is adjustable to suit all body types.
Why choose this Louis Vuitton bag
This piece is of particular interest as the manufacturer has now discontinued its production. The compact messenger format remains popular for its discretion when worn under a jacket or coat. Purchasing this model second-hand allows you to acquire a piece of men’s or unisex leather goods at a favourable price.
