Discontinued Pieces: Sac Flanerie

Spending 5 days in Miami without a trustee ol' shoulder bag was a difficult situation to be in. My That's LVoe tote can only hold as much and sometimes you just need a bag that you can go anywhere without worries, such as the Beaubourg or my Compagnon. Secretly, I was jealous of Arjay's Horizontal Lockit because it holds a ton! So, I decided to feature for my next Discontinued Piece, the Sac Flanerie. Produced in only two sizes, 45 and 50, this ample luggage piece can be used as a huge tote for those I-just-want-to-throw-stuff-in bags. I LVoe the way how the vachette hugs and supports the bottom creating a perpendicular design. I called 1-866 to figure out when it was discontinued and was informed that it was around late nineties or early 2000. LVoe it really and too bad that it's no longer available.

  2. I would love to have this bag. Do you think it will ever be resurrected? Sure would be nice for us guys. Looks like it would hold everything. Let me know if you hear anything about a future rededication.
