The Neverfull bag is one of Louis Vuitton’s most popular bags. The chic, yet extremely practical tote, was released in 2007 and has since then become a staple in any luxury handbag lovers collection. More so, many Louis Vuitton fans and handbag enthusiasts tend to own the Neverfull in a variety of the available colours and sizes. This is no surprise given the popularity and versatility of the bag.

The LV Neverfull makes for a great everyday tote, and can also easily be transformed into a smaller, sleeker shape by simply cinching the laces available at the side of the bag. The Louis Vuitton Neverfull is also a great travel bag, and as the name indicates, it is extremely generous in capacity and can fit a wide range of items, making it ideal for both travelling or a standard long day.

The stylish tote is also extremely durable, and was specifically designed to carry a lot of items. In fact, the LV Neverfull GM, which is the largest size available in this collection, can actually carry up to 200lbs (90 kilograms) worth of items.

In 2014, Louis Vuitton introduced a “free” zippered pouch to the Neverfull, along with a ~12% price increase. The pouch can actually come in pretty handy when travelling, as it can be unhooked from the Neverfull and be used as a clutch bag by itself.

One common grievance from Neverfull owners is related to the delicate looking straps of the bag. While the straps are part of what makes the Louis Vuitton Neverfull look extremely sleek, some carriers of the bag have complained about the fact that the thin straps can be quite uncomfortable on the shoulder if the bag contains a number of heavy items. Incidentally, signs of wear on the LV Neverfull, even though it is an extremely durable bag, usually appear here.

Louis Vuitton Neverfull Materials and Interior Colours

The main part of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull bag is made from treated coated canvas. People are often surprised to discover that this is not leather, however, the canvas is actually what makes the tote so durable. On the other hand, the trimming and straps of the bag are made from vachetta leather.

The LV Neverfull canvas is available in three colours – Damier Azur, which is the checkered white and light grey print, Damier Ebene, the brown checkered print and the classic LV Monogram Canvas. The bag interior is also available in a range of colours. This varies according to the size and material of the bag.

Louis Vuitton Neverfull Retail Price

Given its size, the LV Neverfull can actually be considered to be relatively cheaper than other iconic Louis Vuitton bags (such as the Alma and Twist models).

To sum up, if you are considering buying the Louis Vuitton Neverfull, the bag is a luxury staple piece which you can acquire for circa €1,000. On the downside, the bag is quite common, so if you are looking to carry something which is a little more exclusive, then it may not be the bag for you. That being said, the bag’s versatility and durability means that it will last you for many years. From student days to working life and trips abroad, this bag is a fine iconic piece to accompany you through many periods of your life.

Where to Buy the Louis Vuitton Neverfull

If you are looking to get your hands on a brand new Neverfull, the safest way to ensure the best price and authenticity is to get it directly via Louis Vuitton.

On the other hand, if you would like to give a pre-loved Louis Vuitton Neverfull a new home or are looking for a special edition of the Neverfull which is no longer available, there are plenty of online retailers which ensure that all pre-owned bags listed are genuine and in good condition.
