Louis Vuitton 'Monogram Macassar'
Louis Vuitton has unveiled a new line of men's bags that brings a certain level of permanence to their male customer base. The "Monogram Macassar" is surprisingly the first permanent Monogram line dedicated to men. We say it's about time. The "monogrammed" men's market has clearly exploded with the rise of Vuitton as a statement in street fashion - if not a staple.
The "Monogram Macassar" is inspired by the hazel-brown and black striped Macassar Ebony Wood. The monogram canvas is paired with black matte leather and "shiny palladium hardware" all of which is dinstinctly Vuitton. Gentleman hungry for their shot at Vuitton goodness may choose from a variety of models including the "Neo Greenwich," "Keepall 55" holdall weekender, ad our favorite, the "Steamer Bag" which is clearly the iconic look with it's spacious interior, padlock closure, and scratch resistant canvas.
The "Monogram Macassar" line ranges from $1000US - $4040 - fair game for some baggage which will last for generations.
