Ideal for a weekend escape or as an elegant cabin bag, the Louis Vuitton Keepall 45 in Monogram canvas lends timeless style to short trips. Its compact, soft-sided silhouette fits essentials with ease, moving from train to boutique hotel effortlessly. A classic vintage piece that elevates every getaway.
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 measurements of 45 × 26 × 20 cm, the 45 is ideal for a one‑ to two‑night trip. Think: two changes of clothing, underwear and socks, a light jumper, trainers or flats, a Dopp/toiletry kit, chargers, a book/e‑reader and a compact camera. It also accommodates a 13–14‑inch laptop in a slim sleeve. For exact fit, compare your items to the Measurements shown for this piece.
Q: Is the Keepall 45 accepted as cabin (carry‑on) luggage? A: Generally yes—the 45 cm length is designed to meet most airlines’ cabin guidelines, and it fits comfortably in standard overhead bins. Policies differ by carrier and fare class, so we recommend double‑checking your airline’s current size rules, especially on low‑cost or regional flights.
Q: Does this specific bag come with a shoulder strap? Can it be worn crossbody? A: This listing includes a luggage tag and handle keeper only (see “Accessories”). The classic Keepall (like this one) is hand‑carry with dual rolled top handles. Crossbody/shoulder wear is available on the “Keepall Bandoulière” version, which adds side D‑rings and a detachable strap. If a strap isn’t listed under Accessories, it isn’t included.
Q: What is the interior like and how secure is the closure? A: The Keepall 45 has a zip‑top main compartment for everyday security. The interior is typically a single open space lined in brown textile without internal pockets, making it easy to pack with cubes or organisers. Our photos show the exact layout of this piece.
Q: How durable is the Monogram canvas? Is it waterproof? A: Louis Vuitton’s Monogram is a coated canvas—lightweight, hard‑wearing and water‑resistant for day‑to‑day use. It’s resilient to light rain and wipes clean easily, but like all luxury materials it isn’t fully waterproof; avoid prolonged or heavy wetting and dry it naturally if damp.
Q: What should I know about the Vachetta leather trim and care? A: Vachetta is natural, vegetable‑tanned leather that develops a honey patina. It’s sensitive to moisture, oils and dark denim transfer, so keep it away from rain and coloured fabrics when new. For routine care, wipe with a soft dry cloth; if lightly dampened, blot (don’t rub) and air‑dry away from heat. Store upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag and avoid hanging by the handles for long periods. Older watermarks or deeper cleaning are best left to a trusted luxury leather specialist.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or tablet? A: Yes—most 13–14‑inch laptops and standard tablets fit easily; a 15–16‑inch laptop can fit but we recommend a slim sleeve and mindful packing as there’s no padded compartment. Place tech flat along the base or side to maintain the bag’s shape.
Q: When and where was this bag made? What does the code “SP0931” mean? A: Louis Vuitton used date codes prior to its transition to embedded microchips around 2021. For 1990–2006 bags, two letters indicate the country, and the four digits indicate month and year (1st & 3rd = month; 2nd & 4th = year). “SP” denotes France; “0931” decodes to March (03) 1991 (91). Placement of the code varies by model/era.
Q: Is this exact no‑strap Keepall still produced? A: The classic Keepall without a strap has largely been phased out in recent years; the current boutique equivalent is the Keepall Bandoulière (with strap). Pre‑loved is the best route for non‑Bandoulière vintage pieces like this one.
Q: The description notes a slight vintage scent—will it fade? A: Yes—light vintage scents typically dissipate with use. Air the bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and store it with odour‑neutral sachets (unscented) between uses. We’re happy to air the bag prior to dispatch on request.
