Perfect for weekend getaways and short business trips, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Keepall 45 is an effortless companion for overnight essentials. Stylish from check-in to countryside retreat, it shines as a refined carry-on for city breaks and as a smart gym bag for post-work plans.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Keepall 45? A: With approximate dimensions of 45 × 27 × 20 cm, the 45 is ideal for a 1–2 day trip. It comfortably holds a couple of outfits, underwear, toiletries, a pair of trainers, and small tech like an iPad or a 13–14 inch laptop in a protective sleeve. For the best use of space, roll garments and use packing organisers.
Q: Is the Keepall 45 carry‑on compliant? A: Yes, the 45 cm length is within cabin size for most airlines, so it is generally accepted as carry‑on. Policies differ by airline and aircraft, so please check your specific carrier’s rules before travelling.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: This is the classic handheld Keepall 45, designed to be carried by its dual rolled leather handles. It does not include a shoulder strap, and unlike the Bandoulière version it lacks the side rings made for strap attachment. The Accessories section for this item states no accessories are included.
Q: Can I add a strap later to the classic Keepall 45? A: The classic Keepall was not designed for a shoulder strap and does not have the required D‑rings. Third‑party conversion kits exist, but they can mark the leather and are not recommended. If you need hands‑free carry, consider the Keepall Bandoulière variant.
Q: What does the date code DU3170 mean on this bag? A: DU indicates production in France. Under Louis Vuitton’s 2007–2020 date‑code system, the first and third digits indicate the week and the second and fourth the year. DU3170 therefore indicates week 37 of 2010, made in France.
Q: How durable is the Monogram coated canvas and how should I clean it? A: Monogram coated canvas is light yet robust and resists everyday scuffs and light moisture. Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and mild soap if needed, then dry immediately. Avoid alcohol wipes, harsh cleaners, and soaking. Keep canvas away from dyes that may transfer.
Q: What should I know about the vachetta leather trim? A: Vachetta is natural, untreated leather that develops a honey patina with use. It is sensitive to water, oils, and lotions. Handle with clean, dry hands; if it gets wet, blot gently and let it dry naturally away from heat or sun. Conditioning should be minimal and only with products suitable for untreated leather.
Q: Will my laptop fit inside? A: Most 13–14 inch laptops fit comfortably in a protective sleeve. Many 15–16 inch models also fit thanks to the 45 cm length, but please compare your device’s measurements with the bag’s interior and use a padded sleeve as the bag is unstructured and not padded.
Q: How should I store the bag when not in use? A: Empty it, loosely stuff with acid‑free tissue or a clean cotton towel to maintain shape, close the zip, and store in a breathable dust bag in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic covers, overfilling, or prolonged direct sunlight to keep the canvas and leather ageing evenly.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing states no accessories are included. If items such as a padlock, keys, luggage tag, or handle keeper are not listed under Accessories, they are not part of the sale.
