Louis Vuitton Neverfull

Hi ladies

uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/neverfull-mm-damier-ebene-008116#N41358

I was considering getting the neverfull but I am literally seeing it everywhere now as it's really common. I love the bag and the pattern rather than the monogram version. I also love that it's roomy so you can get loads in and it also comes with a removable pouch.

Do you ladies have any suggestions for another Louis bag with a similar aesthetic but not as common? I like this one:

But I think I would prefer two handles and a bit longer so easier to get on and off the shoulder.

Thanks!

I don't like LV bags. If I wanted a tote I would go for something like this www.fossil.com/en-gb/products/sydney-tote/SHB2871993.html at a fraction of the price.

I know what you mean about the Neverfull, it's a lovely bag but I seem to see them everywhere. I've got a Speedy 35 (Love that iconic silhouette!) which I love, but to be completely honest, I wish I'd went for a shoulder bag of some sort as it's far more practical for me... (admittedly, my bag is chucked under the pram in the basket 90% of the time at the minute!)

I think the Graceful Hobo bag you've linked is a really good compromise - plenty of room, on the shoulder and the Damier print is really suited to it too.

Fashiontatts · 19/06/2022 20:28

Sorry - the whole point of that was to mention that the Speedy also comes as a Speedy Bandouliere (25, 30 and 35) with the shoulder strap... just another option! (But tbh I prefer the Speedy, think it looks bulky cross body/shoulder compared to others)

Goyard St Louis is what people have moved onto I believe. Now that the neverfull is so omnipresent.

bombemma · 19/06/2022 20:50

Mm I have 2, cream medium and brown large one which you've pictured.

The medium one is a little meh tbh but my big never full is Indispensable, it been a changed bag for both children, a bi yearly beach bag, shopping bag every day. It's ace and I will cry when it eventually dies. 12 years on and it's as good as ever. Price per were must be below the pennies

WhyPaulMemory · 19/06/2022 20:53

I have a Faure Le Page battle tote, only very rarely see another. It’s a great, roomy bag. Like this (in green)

threadneedle · 19/06/2022 21:27

I have the Goyard in navy, great bag

I think it's the perfect bag! Exactly what I'm looking for but it's just annoying how many people have it now. I love Louis, just trying to decide on the right bag

Thanks for your recommendations everyone! I do really want a Louis bag so will keep looking

SandyWedges · 19/06/2022 22:10

If its the one you love go for it. Who cares if other people have it.

Ireolu · 19/06/2022 23:03

I have no recommendations as I am not a LV fan but I remember not that long ago when those bags were under £1k. Expensive then even more so now🤐...Good luck with your search OP.

Is it the PM and MM you have or the MM and GM?

I’m currently musing on whether or not a PM would be big enough….

WilsonMilson · 20/06/2022 00:06

The amount of fake Neverfulls and the whole monogrammed range puts me off LV these days, although I do have a Speedy and a Keepall I’ve had for years.
I don’t have any equivalents, although for a larger bag I use my Mulberry oversize Alexa which has been a workhorse for years and I still love it, and the Bayswater which is also good, but not as great as the Alexa imho.
I wouldn’t pay over £1k for a Neverfull.

Luckingfovely · 20/06/2022 00:08

I wouldn't buy a Neverfull simply because there are so many - both real a fake. I assume most I see are fakes tbh. I think it's also that the regular pattern is quite tacky now, unfortunately.

Really like the Goyard listed above as an alternative though!

QuizzlyBears · 20/06/2022 00:12

I have the Neverfull you’ve linked to and I love it - the size makes it indispensable and I use it for everything. I agree they are common now and there are lots of fakes around but I loved it so decided to prioritise that over worrying about anyone else!

Itsabeautifuldaytosavelives123 · 20/06/2022 15:38

I've always loved this bag, but hate that there are mostly fakes out there and how the price has doubled since I was first interested in it, even second hand ones are over £1k now!

@QuizzlyBears good point! I also like the fact it comes with a removable zipper pouch

sammylady37 · 20/06/2022 19:28

I’m getting very tempted now!

sunja · 20/06/2022 19:42

I think I may get this one:

uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/neverfull-mm-epi-006906/M40932

I love the style of bag so may as well go ahead. How common the one in my OP is and all the fakes is putting me off

OP posts:
sunja · 20/06/2022 19:55

And I think I may then get this one afterwards: https://uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/alma-bb-damier-ebene-006420?gclid=CjwKCAjwtcCVBhA0EiwAT1fY7NVNUpJkJOErqNol8VEkf5HVP0N7inPwbe-EPgFnrbzpJ5c5ax79hoCDg8QAvDD_BwE

As I've had my eye on it for a while!

I have the NF in Damier Azur as my summer bag, she came out of hibernation this week. Get the one you love and will use.
I fancy this one for winter, but do I really need it???

uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/products/neverfull-mm-tote-bag-nvprod2790031v/M45685
Nit happy that the price has increased by about £200 since I have been lusting after it!

I see the Goyard everywhere too, and again there seem to be lots of fakes about

nokitchen · 20/06/2022 21:43

Agree with the fakes being everywhere. Just come back from holiday shops were full of fake bags. The neverfull fakes were particularly realistic.

Bimblesalong · 20/06/2022 22:19

I have the neverfull in damier ebene and use it daily. It is so good for everything. I bought the alma in black monogram emprinte - gorgeous. Wondering about the emprinte neverfull for a winter treat - bought the emprinte purse for now!
