Backstory on the Goyard tote, it was originally made as a beach bag which is why it's so flimsy. As it got more popular people started wearing them as normal totes. It's just a shame that Goyard never changed the quality and made it sturdier.

[@edyjo3025]

indeed

[@impulsiveurge5837]

They did. Its called Artois.

[@ja3627]

@@impulsiveurge5837 The Artois is a new and much sturdier version. The Saint Louis Tote is still the same.

[@sc0359]

Another great marketing tactic. They are very clever. They don’t even spend as much on marketing as opposed to the likes of Chanel, so all the money is cash in the back for them! Personally for me no the bag is not worth it - it probably costs no more that £30 for raw materials if that. Appreciate they are handmade but the designs are very simple.

[@MaryGrant-cr7fe]

The variety of textures in the *yutulu* pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

[@user-dk6wt7yr2g]

Great video! I just got my hands on a new, 2023 Saint Louis Claire-Voie GM in Khaki. In store I fell in love with the design, it truly is one of a kind. But when I got back home, this weight of concern came over me with it’s practicality for my needs. Long story short and after watching this video, I am reassured I need sell it and find something better suited for me in a bag this size. Thanks!

[@Ki55yface]

It’s not for everyone. We love that. As flimsy as it is, after owning mine for almost 7 years, it never gave out on me. I still wear it as my work bag! I plan on adding the Orange GM size to my collection next. 💖

[@luxecollective]

I love this!

[@monicarenee7949]

Yeah I want it for a work bag

[@edyjo3025]

it was made for the beach

[@MaryGrant-cr7fe]

I really love your taste and style always so chic. 👌My faves would be the *yutulu* leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. 💓Thank you for your recommendations.

[@ot7stan207]

I thought about it, and I just couldn't do it. A totes job is to be able to lug everything around, withstand abuse and be useful and classy at the same time. I ended up going to Portland Leather Goods and paid 143$ including tax for a FULL GRAIN leather tote bag, with rivets and its such a clean looking tote bag. It holds up on its own, a laptop without sagging, and smells divine. I could buy that, for a tenth of what people are charging for these plastic bags

[@maclac48]

I feel U!!

[@johnnyxmusic]

Good on y’a!

[@breecush1908]

Totally makes sense, as does buying the goyard. St. Louis isn’t it for me for the reasons you describe. But I love fashion and have respect for the brand’s heritage and it’s place in history. I have the Artois. It’s more of a tote if you actually NEED a tote and WANT it from Goyard.

[@MsVee-bo6if]

I had my Goyard bag for over 10 years. Very disappointed the wear and tear of this bag. I had my LV neverful bag since 2010 and it still stand the test of time. I now use it as a travel bag.

[@joceyno]

I would LOVE one in that royal blue, but the flimsiness is why I won’t spend the cash. I went to the Goyard three times in one day, and stood in line - but I couldn’t do it.

[@loribijou]

I did it and got that color and yes its expensive but oohh I love it! Great for summer. I wouldn't throw a laptop in it though. I love the vibe and the plus is not everyone has it

[@654ujala]

I have it and love the blue but yeah, it’s totally not worth the money if you need a workhorse tote. The flimsiness and how lightweight it is suits my needs though so I would recommend it. Carrying it brings me more joy than carrying other totes!

[@KS-zd4ew]

My GM tote is cracking at the straps but the PM is okay . Both I use regularly

[@zarahvc4409]

Wow! I searched your channel for exactly this video a few days ago - what great timing! Hoping to buy one on my trip to the UK soon 💃🏻

[@luxecollective]

Ahh that’s great I’m glad this was what you wanted to see 🥰 where abouts in the Uk are you visiting?

[@zarahvc4409]

@@luxecollective Going to London and Edinburgh!

[@Kayleena]

Wow love the thorough information 😍

[@luxecollective]

Yesss thankyou!!

[@offtomilan]

I went to Goyard today to purchase the GM and then changed my mind and got the PM instead. The bigger one looks too much like a beach bag on me. Anyway, prices here in Miami are currently $1620 for the PM and $1900 for the GM. I also got the Jouvence MM toilet bag :):) Flying back to Hawaii tomorrow, I'm so happy I was able to stop in!

[@luxecollective]

Love this Cameron! Thanks for sharing the pricing too 🥰 What colour did you go for?

[@Gomezgani__]

Thanks for putting up the pricing it’s good to have ‘em in mind while watching and admiring the bags.

[@faithlovehope2119]

$1620 includes tax? im about to buy one online but thinking of just buying straight from the store

[@fordkoleski7913]

I have 2 which I use for trips to the grocery multiple times a week. I pack them full and they arent showing any wear after years of doing so.

[@5551133]

What size is this one in the video? Thank you for your review !

[@Totillo77]

Hello! Could you please let me know the size. I would like to use it for work and the laptop should fit. Many thanks.

[@centralasiainstitute]

Going to cannes from LA and will drive to Monaco to visit the goyard store. Probably will buy the belvedere. I would probably not shop from the beverly hills store though I live in l a because i'm sure it's going to be cheaper in france.

[@justynaley]

Im thinking about goyard Mini, but is it worth it 🤔

[@annmajek5203]

Awesome info! Headed to Paris soon!

[@luxecollective]

Thanks Ann!! Have a ball 🫶🏽🤍

[@nurrizkakareth3141]

Looks like a bag i bought in grocery store when i forgot my reusable bag, around $5 bag I can’t believe someone use this as luxury bag😂

[@luxecollective]

ouch lol

[@tobymama1]

Well, if you can’t afford it😅

[@tonelow5]

I love the video I like your accent but can’t tell where it’s from ? Are you British or Australian or something else ? Great videos as always !!!

[@Bennygk-yw2fx]

saw many carry the bag in nyc lately,don’t know what that is,one girl told me it’s goyard

[@luxecollective]

Yes goyard!

[@perthfanny3017]

Same in Paris, according to my brother

[@maclac48]

I just don’t get it. The value that people put on different things really trips me out. I do respect the longevity of the brand, but it just doesn’t grab me as something that I need to spend my hard earned money on. 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@Lisa13245]

wait i need the music used in this video

[@cesarguevara3362]

Just curious but if there are no prices online how do re-sellers know what to charge? 🤔

[@luxecollective]

There’s estimates online as people who buy them will share what they paid. When you’re in the industry for a while you also learn their prices from dealing with them so much 🤍

[@cesarguevara3362]

@@luxecollective As always, you guys are very insightful 👏 👌 👍

[@Ki55yface]

There are prices online, just not their website. I just did research and the special colors in GM size are $1513 and the PM sizes are $1294 tax included. So if you have more than that you’re good for the PM sizes. 💖

[@654ujala]

It’s not supposed to be a durable bag so I don’t know why it’s often compared to the neverfull. It’s a luxury item and some bags are delicate but people still buy them. I wouldn’t use a bag made out of lambskin the same way I would use a bag made of caviar. It’s the same concept…The goyard St. Louis is not the workhorse tote; it’s the chic tote you carry around when you’re running errands, shopping, having lunch with friends. For lugging around a laptop the neverfull, faur Le page, or a longchamp will do.

[@impulsiveurge5837]

Your comparison is wrong. Thats like comparing glass to thin plastic, both are breakable but one is a premium material, one is intentionally breakable.

[@anatosic480]

A chic tote that looks like a grocery store bag? This is like that line of Balenciaga bags that are literally plastic storage bags for 3k$😂. But I guess upper middle class ppl can be convinced to buy anything expensive as long as it creates an illusion they're rich 😂

[@654ujala]

@@anatosic480 or maybe we can just easily afford it and it brings us joy, so why not?! If I need to create the illusion that I am rich, I’d be buying something well out of my price range and saving up for it. I am not saving up to buy these goyard “grocery” totes…it is well within my budget the way a $3 grocery bag is within your budget. It’s just an object to enjoy and use and I am not going to complain about wear and tear if I’ve gotten my use out of it. When people complain it just reveals to me that it’s not really something they can afford.

[@anatosic480]

@@654ujala lol, you don't know what's in my budget though. Just cause something is in your budget, doesn't mean you should spend money on it. Poor taste is evident with the nouveau riche. That's why these brands swindle you while laughing in your faces 😂

[@jujub4553]

Oh wow, I thought you could NOT just walk in and buy stuff 🤔

[@ruperttmls7985]

Se ve muy simple y corriente para ese precio.

[@emmy7436]

Just no, not for the price! I would rather get a Faure le page, so much better quality and all the history to go with it. I buy Longchamp for a fraction of the price if I want a lighter weight bag

[@bascoaful]

Fun fact if you bought your longchamp bag in their stores, you can get it fixed there too

[@laurabailey808]

I had a faure le page bag which came unstitched in three places after only two months. It took three months and was a daily battle ( the irony!) to get it replaced and while the replacement is fine two months on, the poor service received from FLP means I'd recommend the LV neverfull every time

[@654ujala]

Yeah but with faur Le page you have to compromise on aesthetics. Longchamp is good for a throw around tote bag.

[@1990pommie]

2023 DEMAND FOR THERE PRODUCTS VERY HIGH.

[@luxecollective]

100%

[@zero-vi2uz]

it needs a total redesign. its ruddy awful!!! infact its horrid. don't mean to be rude, but looks cheap and does not seem to give a presence, well I not feel it. my mum's shopping bag from the 80 s?!

[@9gala6]

You are really really brainwashed

[@romybrater1353]

Sorry, but they look like the reusable bags I use for my groceries....

All the girls in Saudi are wearing it. Looks cheap. Not for me.

First.

Rapid 🤯

[@LouvuiLove]

Am I the only one who thinks these bags are ugly 🤔

[@befitforlifegetone8114]

No, I think it looks like it’s made of raincoat plastic cheap material, Why Is this bag costing more than $20 looks like the laundry bags 🤷‍♀️

[@mai_chan00]

I also find it hideous. I don't even understand the hype of it. Maybe because it's a luxury brand that's why people still buy it.

[@monicarenee7949]

I actually love the design but looking at it in person it looks really cheaply made. It costs as much as a neverfull but a neverfull is way more sturdy

[@Ms.KGP88]

Looks like trash bags lol

[@luxecollective]

Not a fan?

[@kimharveycabcaban2874]

wearing branded clothes bags etc makes u look cheap haha id rather wear not branded or local brands without logos makes u more classy and elegant😂😂😂

[@iLoveBoysandBerries]

Goyard is the biggest joke in the world

[@cheg-in3km]

I don’t know but it looks so unattractive to me

[@befitforlifegetone8114]

This bag just looks sooooo cheap and plastic. It looks cheesy. I don’t like it and it’s a clout chaser🙄

[@chr1stoph3r93]

If you can’t afford it it’s okay

[@pookochan]

Conclusion, its not worth.

[@4Clover128]

[@MikSonus]

I have used the bag for years. The bag is supposed to be light by design as a beach bag. However, I put mine through the daily grind and it’s still happy many years later. I prefer this over the neverfall as it’s more comfortable to carry. Goyard made a stronger version with a zip… you can try that as a work horse if you’re too afraid of the this one. 🫶
