Hey guys I got my first Louie about 2 years ago directly from 1800vuitton. The sales people were great and I decided on a Speedy 25. Well I never realized after spending 500+ on a purse that it would not have barely any pockets. I love the Louie design but if you think about it a Coach purse actually have a better design, aka more inside pockets. The leather on the Louie is very durable though! I like my Louie much more now that the leather straps have oxidized because before it looked almost like plastic. Just thought I would put my two cents in.....
