Louis Vuitton Damier Canvas Speedy
Ok so I realize that I have been MIA for a while. My apologies. Work was taking over my life but now I won’t let it. To start off on the right foot with my paying more attention to the site, comes a purchase of a new bag. Yes, I had to do it 
Most and many are in the Speedy Club. Remember back in grade school when everyone got a Trapper-Keeper and you didn’t have a new hip one… well that is how left out I felt from the coveted LV Speedy. The Speedy boasts tons of exposure and is one of the most recognizable styles from LV. Right now, the Damier canvas Speedy’s are in stock and I just clicked on submit for my 30!!!
The Louis Vuitton Damier Canvas Speedy is trimmed in chocolate leather which flows perfectly with the Damier canvas. There is something about the Damier canvas that I love- very simple, but different in a way. The bag closes with a zip top and has a gold padlock. On the inside you will find red textile lining with a patch pocket to store some goodies. Available through eLuxury in the 25 (which measures 10″ x 7″) or through eLuxury in the 30 (which measures 12″ x 8″). I opted for the 30. Next week I will show you all some pictures (below is the 30)!!

i love the sppedy bag :). while not the most expensive bag, i think it’s the best bag to have…it’s practical, roomy and durable. among all the bags i have, my speedy 30 gets used the most. sometimes, i even use it as a diaper bag when going out to restaurants.

it’s funny when I got my Damier Alma last month, I asked if they have the Speedy in Damier. The lady told me I can have one customized. I’m glad they already have this out. it looks much better than the previous speedy

the one i have is in monogram canvas, but this one in damier looks very nice & elegant. definately a bag to have or consider.

I think Damier Speedy is nicer than Monogram Canvas one. Is the price more expensive ? Is it also sagging like Monogram one ?

I love the damier. I got the Speedy 25 and I love it: roomy, classic, matches with anything I wear. I get looks at the airport recently, maybe because they’ve never seen it in damier before? It was just recently launched in the US afterall. The price is the same as the monogram one. 565$US at boutiques.
As for the sagging, I just put a flipped over mousepad at the bottom to provide some base and it completely works. I certainly hate for it to sag over time, so this can hopefully keep it in shape for a long time (it also depends on how much you carry ofcourse)

I bought my wife speedy30 both in monogram canvas and damier. Frankly speaking, these bags are shapeless. Her speedy30 in epi looks much better. Going to buy speedy30 in nomade leather and speedy25 in silver vinyl
8.2.2006 - 4:14 am
I just got the Darnier speedu 30 last month. And i haven’t been using it much, it really does sag. I guess I like my LV sholder bag better because its more convenient.
9.28.2006 - 10:36 pm
The epi speedy hold shape ( heavy and firm) more than LV monogram or LV Damier (light and soft). I also have an EPI Jasmin (5 years old) in black with gold hardware still look like new, it’s little narrow than speedy but its shape last forever because its body structured rounded and sleek. How about LV Damier Duomo (I love it) but its price is $1,270.00 (more than 2x ) LV Damier Speedy is $595.00! Is any one has LV Damier Duomo? please let me know your opinion!
10.10.2006 - 2:12 pm
hahaha that is a very good idea u gave me there . I will try the mouse pad too ! I just got my damier speedy a few weeks ago and I put those empty boxes just to make it not sag LOL! I don’t carry much but I really love this classic look .

I got the damier 30 n mono 25 speedy . I like damier better . The mono handles gets dirty easily and its not really a nice sight not until it turn tan . For speedy style I suggest damier or minilin better .

I just purchased my damier speedy 30 today. Something told me I should go buy one! I got to the LV boutique and incredibly all of the ones on display were made in the USA. Well, as much as I LOVE and support American made goods and am happy that things are being made here instead of having production for absolutely everything shipped over to China, I want my Louis made in France, than you very much. It’s a French bag after all. So…I expressed my disappointment to the SA, nicely, and she went to the back to check all the stock back there and she appeared back in a few minutes with one that was made in France. I was so overjoyed that I instantly purchased it. I’m happy I did! Everyone and their sister has the monogram speedy and I was lucky enough to purchase the beautiful Monogram Beverly GM when I was in Paris last year, so I felt that the damier would be a nice alternative for a speedy for me. I love it. If you run into the same “Made in USA” issue when you go in to purchase your next LV, just sweetly ask if they can search in the back for one made in France. I think a French bag should be made in France, especially when it costs so much.

To explain the “made in USA” thing. I asked the SA why LV would move some of its production to the US and she explained that a lot of the reason was due to shipping and importing costs from France. It seemed odd to me. It’s mostly the monogram and damier canvas bags that are made here. The simpler styles. She also explained that some bags are now produced in Spain and in Germany also. I’m just a total stickler about mine being made in France. The reason I don’t carry Coach bags is because they’re “American” classic bags that are sadly made in China. *sigh* I wish LV would go back to making all their bags in France. I just feel that it’s more special that way. Ok, I’m really going to bed now. hehe.
Love the Speedy Damier 30! So cute and you definitely don’t see it every day!

I own the Damier speedy 30…LOVE IT!!!! it’s so much more classic than the monogrammed in my opinion…it’s Louis Vuitton without screaming Louis Vuitton, if that makes sense.
i’ll definitely have to try the mouse pad trick. i had to get one of those clip key chains so i wouldn’t constantly lose my keys. it’s just such a roomy purse!!

SMH @ All of you fools who spend your hard earned money on a plastic bag. A plastic bag that droops at that
I have had a Damier Speedy 25 for 2 years now and I paid only 50 bucks for. It looks just like the real thing. I wears like the real thing too. If your worried it won’t last like the real one, Buy 3 fakes. By the time they do wear out, the style will have faded.

you’re just jealous you cant afford the real one. these are bags that are classic - they will never go out of style. way to fund and support terrorism by buying a fake designer purse.
5.4.2008 - 10:29 pm
Buying fake bags is immoral. You are supporting child labor, even drug trafficking. Buy authentic, or don’t buy at all.
5.13.2008 - 5:52 pm
Hi all,
is it true that LV is engraving the serial number for the damier speedy 30 in red?
5.15.2008 - 5:46 pm
I brought my damier speedy 25 roll a week ago and I lovvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvve it . I dont want a fake bag
sorry I got a good job I can afford the real thing. and I love my bag . and I dont support child labor

when you bought your Damier Speedy 30, did it come with dustbag & authenticity card?
mine was bought in Via Montenapoleone in Italy & it didn’t come with authenticity card. all it had was the invoice! i called up the store overseas & the lady said it doesn’t come with authenticity card at all! which is which? i dunno!!! this is my first LV bag & i found pics online with things that are included when u buy the bag (lock & key, dustbag, authencity card, dustbag).
pls enlighten me.

Czarina,
I bought my damier speedy 30 at the local LV boutique here and mine is the only one that didn’t have the small card inside the bag ( I don’t know if it’s consider as an authenticity card it’s only a small card with the information of the material used)I still pick that one because it’s made in France , the rest are made in USA (all of those have that small card inside)
So I don’t know…maybe the ones that made in Erope don’t come with it. Mine also doesn’t have the 30 stamp under the leather leaf.

I just bought it yesterday!!! and I love, since I live in Milan and the 60% of the LV addict have the monogram canvas speedy, I’m happy mine is a bit different, was bought in LV Galleria Vittorio Emmanuelle, so it came with dust bag, little card and pad lock. But since I bougth it in the real LV bouttique I’m sure is a real LV bag! What u girls think will be ur next bag?
7.25.2008 - 4:13 am
I was reading and saw that your speedy 25 was $565 ,but now the speedy 25 in now $660. Do you know if the prices go up each year.

!you are so freaking dumb for saying that! I’m an authentic shopper; however, ur comment about “supporting terrorism” doesn’t have to do anything with fake designer purses. If u want to act knowledgeable try it some other way, not by embarrassing yourself.
P.S i have the white multi colored speedy and im in love with it
8.12.2008 - 7:05 pm
I just got my speedy 30 in damier canvas, and I love it
. It’s classy and roomy, just what I am looking for. I haven’t seen anyone w/ it here so I’m pretty happy.
Just in case anyone wants to know how I will maintain my speedy 30 from sagging by using a shoe box lid. Luckliy I just bought some shoes and the lid fits perfectly.
8.14.2008 - 10:32 pm
the speedy is not as nice as the red one, but, very affordable
8.24.2008 - 3:12 am
hi. just want to ask about the damier speedy 30, there are two squares on the canvas bearing the word ‘LOUIS VUITTON FRANCE’ right, is the position of these squares in the front side in relation to the ditance to the handle consistent with all other pieces of speedy 30 or it may vary? thanks. need to know asap.

LOS ANGELES, CA, Aug 14, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) — A malicious prosecution lawsuit against Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior was filed today by downtown Los Angeles shop owners George and Marijeanne Antounian, charging the companies and their attorneys with bringing an unlawful lawsuit against them for selling knock-off products (Antounians v. Louis Vuitton et al, Los Angeles County Superior Court, Case No. BC396340). The malicious prosecution suit alleges that Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, and their respective lawyers knew the allegations of copyright and trademark infringement were not true but continued with the litigation, ultimately forcing the shop to close and the owners to liquidate their inventory.
Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior hired a private investigation company, Investigative Consultants, in 2005 to determine whether stores on Santee Alley in downtown Los Angeles were selling counterfeit Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior wallets, purses and other goods. After nearly two years of investigations, the suit alleges Investigative Consultants wrongfully concluded that the Antounians, owners of the Bijou Palace at 1116 Santee Alley, sold fake Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior products. An investigation video showed the counterfeit transactions occurring at adjacent stores and in the alley itself but not at Bijou Palace.
“The Antounians’ store, Bijou Palace, sold only costume jewelry and was not in the business of selling purses and wallets,” says Sean Macias, managing partner of Macias Counsel, Inc. in Glendale and lead attorney representing the Antounians.
William Salle, co-counsel for the Antounians, says a member of the investigation team, Arianna Ortiz, admitted she provided false testimony in identifying Bijou Palace as one of the stores selling knockoff products. “Ortiz alerted Kris Buckner, president of Investigative Consultants, and lead counsel Janine Garguilo for Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior, of the errors in the investigation reports months before trial, but legal action still proceeded against the Antounians,” says William Salle. During trial in July 2007, Investigator Buckner testified that he never saw handbags, wallets or sunglasses or any Louis Vuitton or Dior items for sale at Bijou Palace. “These were the same items that the Antounians and Bijou Palace were to have allegedly sold,” says Salle.
“We understand the plight of companies as they try to protect their brand from counterfeiters,” says Macias, “but doing as they did in this case is unjustifiable. Maybe they wanted to send a message to would-be counterfeiters that they mean business. Instead, Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior succeeded only in destroying a small business.”
Co-counsel representing George and Marijeanne Antounian is also Armen Shaghzo of the law firm Shaghzo and Shaghzo.
