I really, really did not want to end up with a piece that was ordinary and unexciting. While I had my eyes on Louis Vuitton Pochette Metis for a long time, its widespread reach has always been a bit of a turn-off for me and so, in the end, I could not commit myself to buying it. And what becomes commonplace, eventually loses its charm, no matter how beautiful it might be. Due to the lasting popularity, the bag has become somewhat overexposed and can be seen virtually everywhere. But arguably, its success has also become its worst enemy. Not only that… To the delight of many, the brand decided to expand the iterations of the satchel which now include the embossed monogram Empreinte leather in several colours, Monogram Reverse canvas as well as some seasonal versions.Īs the years go by, the outpour of adoration for the satchel is not fading away with the bag continuing to be a regular feature among Instagrammers and influences. Luckily for those who loved the design, the waves of speculation turned out to be unfounded. The rumours of Pochette Metis being discontinued, which started circulating around 2017, paid a part in bolstering its popularity.
Even today, the classic version in Monogram Canvas is somewhat a holy grail rarely available in boutiques or on the brand’s website. And what usually follows, one of the most difficult to find.
However, fast forward a couple of years, Pochette Metis has gained an undisputed status as one of the most recognisable and sought-after designs created by Louis Vuitton. When first released in 2012, the bag was a far cry from being an overnight sensation. Especially one, which originates from one of the most prestigious French fashion houses out there. Let’s face it, it is hard not to love a good satchel. The boyish charm of Louis Vuitton Pochette Metis has been captivating the hearts of fashionistas for nearly a decade.
