[@luxecollective]

🎁 GIVEAWAY DETAILS: A person from the comments will be chosen to WIN the Longchamp bag and we will announce the winner in our KZbin community on Friday 29th September at 12pm. Unfortunately this is a UK only giveaway.

[@hungryasianmermaid]

Not to mention the sales personnel are friendly. Been to several stores around Europe, and everytime, it was a pleasure. Doesn’t matter if you buy a small wallet or few bags. They’re nice.

[@johnanthonysmith]

Longchamp as a whole is underrated. This bag should be mentioned more in purse forums however idk why the girlies aren’t jumping on.

[@ohnoitsthenoooo]

They definitely had a moment in the mid 2010s

[@MadhuraMohan]

Here in UK I see a lot of girls using them.

[@Michaela711]

In France literally every other young girl has one, i've been seeing them around for a few years now.

[@johnanthonysmith]

@@Michaela711 I know!! However here in the US, a lot of girlies don’t know or appreciate the brand. The bag had its run in 2010s really 2015-2016 era!!

[@c0ffeeinthepm]

It's okay, that'll keep the prices low. Let em sleep on it 😂

[@thefrenchmode]

I'm french, and I've seen my mom use a Pliage as the equivalent of a tote bag since I was little, now I'm 34, I have my own chocolate brown medium one, I get why my mom uses hers so much ! It's a nice-looking, sturdy and functional bag, as a travel carry-on, everyday, or shopping bag, and as you said the fact that it zips close makes it safer too !

[@nicoleip8940]

I’ve had my Le Pliage for 12 years and it’s travelled thousands of miles with me on holiday and been used for work too over the years! It’s still going strong. It’s such a great bag, price point has universal appeal and is functional, chic and understated! Great video!

[@jessicamei9998]

I didn’t like them at first because they were everywhere. After having one, I immediately get the hype. They’re so practical!

[@sarizonana]

Once you see them nicely dressed you get the hype of them, I was also a hater turned lover on lepliage.

[@trina6256]

Got my first Le Pliage Tote bag when I was at University in 1983…. And still always have one or two in my closet /collection still to this day. A great bag that has a solid history. And workmanship that outdoes most brands!!! They also have a repair or replace guarantee!!! Win-win!! And just FYI should your corners wear through Longchamp will repair it (no matter how old the piece is) at no cost to you one time!

[@miriacarolina3345]

Wow! ❤

[@FrenchFifi65]

I have both a Neverfull and a Le Pliage, I travel more with my Longchamp and use the Neverfull organizer in my Longchamp and it is life changing what I can fit in there. I have had two Longchamp for over 10 years and despite all of the travels, seasons, spills, it still looks fabulous! True luxury:)

[@CyndiCaviedes]

Yes! This is what luxury means to me!

[@maisy4675]

I’m obsessed with the brand. I have travel bags, tote bags, mini bags and have had them for close to 15 years.

[@luxecollective]

wow that's impressive !!

[@CyndiCaviedes]

I just bought my first. It was 250 dollars I think it’s the larger size that you can wear crossbody. I love it. It’s so versatile and I feel stylish too! I have a YSL that I can’t wear that much because I’m afraid it’s going to get ruined or stolen… so this is so much better

[@carolchawner5515]

I was gifted this bag by my son about 8 years ago! Was for a girlfriend of his, but relationship didn't last! Her loss..my gain!! All true regarding this bag. Still using today & love how it folds away. Happy Days❤

[@Ramitty]

My love for Longchamp is eternal! It’s versatile, low maintenance and VERY durable! It’s my favorite overnight travel and shopping bag. I literally put anything in it when I go to the supermarket (including fresh produce and seafood). I have 2 specific ones for grocery and farmers market shopping. Best value for money!

[@haolieu3884]

Didn’t know it is from same material than Prada! I am in luvv with love with Longchamps ❤❤❤

[@MaryHall-q2j]

I love watching videos where I can see *amzclothes* different knockoffs. If it looks well made, it saves time and I can reconsider if I really want to buy it, or buy the real thing. If you have the time, it would be great to keep watching more videos like this.

[@rachelrenees]

I love Longchamp! I have their Le Pliage, backpack, travel bag and shoulder bag. The quality is superb and affordable. My Le Pliage is almost 20 yrs old and it still looks brand new except for the corners lolz

[@lauriewallace343]

Thank you for reviewing this bag. I’ve had mine for many years and I use it everyday for work, carrying it on the train. It holds my laptop, headphones, wallet, a sundries bag, and a heeled pair of shoes to change into at work. I also take it with me whenever I travel. It’s both practical and polished looking. I prefer it to be open concept, since it fits extras if I need to bring an umbrella or other items. Thanks again! Laurie

[@saadiatalib5896]

If you live in NYC, this bag has been part of the NY uniform for women. We have known of its value for decades. Very durable.

[@blaackberry]

Hmm... when I worked at Nordstrom, this bag came back the most often for rips, tears, and broken zippers. Also the straps would unravel all the time 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@Cleifairy]

@@blaackberryThats crazy mine don’t rip or get damaged wtf are you Americans doing with them?

[@blaackberry]

@@Cleifairy That's a lot of assumption you've got there 👀

[@anye76]

I have 3 in my collection and no kidding I've replaced nearly all other bags because it is really a workhorse and I love it. I have even washed it the machine on gentle cycle in a laundry mesh bag. Came out perfect. Honestly spot clean and go. ❤

[@chrislstahl4239]

I got the expandable travel bag. I would prefer to minimize the strap further than possible. I would prefer longer leather handles. Other than that: I love it! Best weekender bag ever. I travel zipped up and when I shop a lot i size up. Brilliant.

[@stellamaxwell777]

In high school we used these as backpacks. Lasted me all the way through college too. I still have it, I just don’t use it anymore because it seems a bit dated. But the only wear you see are a few holes in the corners and dirt. And this is from carrying textbooks in it every day + travel. I was thinking recently it would be nice to get some new ones, bring the trend back. They’re just so high quality and look decent-an elevated version of a tote bag. Would highly recommend!

[@rrsee-zk3zu]

I’m a guy and I use the bigger bag for travel. It’s just excellent

[@stephaniepapatheodorou8111]

I’ve always debated getting this bag! Everyone who had it at uni was so happy with it. And after this review, I think I should buy it!

[@ruthacuna4385]

I had one, sold it, and now I reentering the workforce and looking to purchase the black one. I originally wanted the Neverfull but the price tag is too much for a Canvas bag. Your video solidifies why I need to get the Longchamp again.

[@mulberryaddict938]

Le pliage is the only work bag that works for me. I have a few nylons, but my fave is a coated canvas which is more structured. Perfect for my laptop. Only bag that fits everything.

[@sandrineohouot8259]

I love this brand I have a Longchamp pliage hobo bag. I’m really happy with the quality. Indeed, I don’t understand why some luxury brands have a high price for this material for the same quality

[@LuindaLilley]

Classic, sleek, modern and practical. A real winner.

[@flagley]

Well, funny that this video is called like that because this is literally the first luxury bag I'm considering buying :) Been looking into it this summer. I've seen a friend use it for so long and I really like the variety of colors and customizable options. It's so useful to be able to fold it to such a small size.

[@luxecollective]

I'm not surprised that your friend has had it for so long because people have these for over a DECADE!! 🤩

[@AliasEveWatches]

When it became common here in the Philippines in the 2000's, I thought it was overrated. When I got a hand me down and used it for travel, that's when it clicked -- it was so lightweight yet so durable... plus the zip and flap for double security. I'm now a fan, I don't care anymore if I look basic. 😂 Unfortunately, these are hard to find in preowned as there are soooo many fakes. I've just ordered a preowned Le Pliage backpack and I really really hope I got a legit one.

[@sarizonana]

It’s the equivalent to the Ray ban aviators. It’s a timeless casual bag. I adore my XS lepliage and my Ray Bans. I don’t care how many beautiful designer sunglasses exist im a Ray ban girl All the way and I think I’m going the same path with Longchamp lepliage

[@rwb3562]

I've never had a designer bag, always wanted one, after watching this info I feel confident this is a purchase I wouldn't regret thanks for the video!

[@biest]

You really influenced me: bought the Le Pliage Energy Bag, spend more money, then planned and I really love the bag!

[@mochilinha1753]

I love that bag. Went through all the law school with me carrying a lot of books and lots of paper. They last decades. ❤

[@diannewi]

Totally agree with your overview of Longchamp. I don't "believe in" spending thousands for "luxury" brands, Longchamp is my go-to for purses, bags, scarves, and accessories like bag charms. I recently bought the Energie Camera Bag (men's collection) in France. I put it in a tote with a soft drink bottle that leaked, to take it back to my hotel. Everything else in the tote was damaged, but NOT the Longchamp bag. I just wiped it off with a damp paper towel and it's good as new. It's perfect for travel, holds my iPhone and iPad mini, AND the zipper can be locked using the strap clasp - perfect. Longchamp has an outlet just outside Paris and several in the U.S., also one at Bicester Village. I shop the outlets whenever possible for last-season good buys.

[@sheilakerr-jones4345]

I worked in Spain in the 70s, and yes, it was my work bag then. Nowadays l own four, different sizes and colours. ❤️

[@Lucywonderhunt]

Love this .. 😂 I have so many . The large bag is the best weekend bag . Such a classic

[@mimi2songbird]

I just bought 10 le pliage top handle and long handle this year and I looooooove them. Love the different colors and yes it used to cost less.

[@blanchedevereaux5403]

I got my first Longchamp Le Pliage about a year ago. I didn't know what all the fuss was about, until I owned one. It's stylish, sleek & best of all, it holds so much stuff. I definitely want to get another one.

[@sewgatormomm]

The only problem is they aren’t as well made as they were in the past. I have Longchamp bags that are over 15 years old and look fantastic. The new ones are getting damaged entirely too soon, especially on the bottom corners. There’s definitely a difference in quality.

[@hello_ket]

I've been very interested in the brand for a while now. It looks so practical and classic.

[@hudsonsailor54]

I like my Le Pliage and use it often. I do have a problem with the corners wearing.

[@KellyN234]

I have been eyeing this bag for awhile! I just can’t make up my mind on what color I want. I also love their coin purses.

[@SS-mc2ed]

Thanks for making these videos. Your videos are shot and so Informative. Gold class. I bought it 5 years old and I still wear it. Currently I wear it as a diaper bag ❤

[@thisha36]

Im in love with my prada re-edition 2005 and I confirm that nylon is very durable material you don’t need to care much about using it easily everyday bag

[@dmarie44]

I've never owned one but have been on their website recently. Perfect timing thank you for the information ❤

[@GerowWemple]

Yes the color of the kisluxs is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…

[@o3434-p5m]

I cannot stop collecting le pliage.

[@Ahmed-eh4xf]

I am a big fan of Long Cham bags I bought this blue color bag in 2011 from Jakarta and still I have it. I bought suitcases and casual bag for travelling also. I have blue and brown color

[@Mellowbeee]

I have a yellow leather Pilage - one of my fav bags…practical and stylish

[@Anticrap-b1e]

Have seen this bag and contemplated getting one… now I will def get one soon. Thanks for the great info on the why…

[@zizilia5784]

Such a good bag. I have a few different colours. Stress free easy to wipe down and pack away.

[@sdouglas5207]

I've been for a durable, stylish, good value bag for work, this ones ticks all boxes. Thanks for the review

[@luxecollective]

it's the perfect work bag!!

[@monicagates162]

I love your videos, you’ve really helped instruct me on what luxury bag I should go for as a first time buyer and how I know I went for the right one ❤

[@luxecollective]

that's so amazing to hear Monica!! 🥰

[@StellaPiano1]

I like the look of this bag (more elegant) better than Prada but the corners worn out quickly after several usages. I had Prada for 15 years. it is more durable. I will see if Longchamp will repair that bag.

[@StellaPiano1]

another than, Longchamp nylon has NO compartments. it ends up being a mess in side.

[@sreddy5845]

I love my le Pliage…Most work appropriate bag…This is a buy recommendation for me…

[@HolznechtMaker]

My friend sold the *condup* and it looks like the real thing you showed. It even comes with an authenticity card that matches the serial number of each bag. But her fake was $500.

[@AroundTheWorldWithEase]

With the rise in crime, especially toward luxury brand items, I'm considering this for days I go on public transportation. I've a large Louis Vuitton vintage logo vinyl sort-of bucket bag initially designed to hold 4 bottles of champagne. That was my go-to roomy day bag, but not for the time being.

[@agnesw4189]

Le Pliage is my everyday bag....light and roomy, lovely ❤

[@srey_p]

Longchamp Le Pliage is a work horse and for the price point you can’t go wrong. The corners do wear out the fastest but if you take good care of them I’m sure that won’t happen to yours

[@SarahAnn_81]

I love mine and have had it in the large since 2014.

[@jenniferw917]

I have a Longchamp bag that is my go to when I travel.. plane, train or car! Love it!

[@lajupeinstyle]

I have a large navy for 8 years, it’s travelled a lot with me. I have used it to work, to workout and now as a diaper bag 😂. I want to order it in other colors and maybe one medium (my mom and sister have that size)

[@frosono100]

I dont know how to feel about the nyon material for the bag but the functionality and appeal is there. I'd love to see it IRL.

[@luxecollective]

the re-nylon that is used is the same as the one prada use!

[@annabpratt]

Honestly, the best purchase! It’s perfect ❤

[@ingridfromm7719]

I have a few Longchamp bags, love them! So durable and stylish.

[@k8brault]

I have been looking for a while and realize that this bag really is a fantastic choice.

[@noorlone2944]

I wish I knew about this every day bag! I made the mistake of impulse buying a purse that is too small and formal for daily use. I'd love to have one.

[@enricodesiderio3474]

Hello, what is the difference between the Le Pliage (hz) and the non-hz? Thanks

[@nataliahoyos4797]

Longchamp en esta referencia fue mi primer bolso de “lujo” desafortunadamente por el precio y lo sencillo del modelo muchos no lo consideran lujo pero tienen joyas hermosa , por ejemplo el bolso Gameon de cuero , hecho en francia, muy clásico y sobrio del cual nadie habla. Gracia por tu video y opinión , un abrazo

[@sarizonana]

Son bolsas muy infravaloradas en especial las de la línea lepliage, yo era de las que las infravaloraban me cambié de bando pase de odiarlas a amarlas.

[@AgentOrchid]

ICONIC

[@colombianito13111]

I used to use this bag for travelling all the time until I got my current backpack and gave it to my mum...Although watching this has just reminded me how easy it was travelling with that bag...Might have to go rebuy 🙈

[@sarizonana]

Now you can get a lepliage backpack. I’m not a backpack kind of girl but for the ones who are, the longchamp ones are really nice. Here on my country backpacks are quite insecure. Easy to be pick pocket victim but if you live In a more secure country, then go for your lepliage backpack.

[@laurakettner]

Longchamp Bags look classy and have a good price! I like them! :)

[@celestelmcdonald]

I love mine. I’ve had mine for about 8 years now

[@duchessrva]

I love this bag and have in three different sizes.

[@LuckytanTan-hd5ld]

What is the warranty covered cos the zipper head often lying failed/ broken

[@whattheelle360]

Love Longchamp! I have 5 of them.

[@nelsonvengeance]

Is the Le Pliage leather version worth it, and as durable?

[@mariacorretge6615]

Let it be me! I've been a fan of the bag forever. I've given it as a gift many times. But now my bag has damaged corners from all the use. I'm I Edinburgh!

[@leelee12123]

They repair the corners for free.

[@tenjumelewis5644]

I do love this brand but the sizing of the shoulder bags large vs the totes in large is very different and somewhat confusing.

[@chrisfischkopf7507]

I gifted my mother this one like 8 years ago, still full in function ✌🏼✌🏼

[@RMRetief1111]

It has that classic look ❤🙌

[@VickreyLes]

I bought a bag for my best friend before. The details of the *condup* bag are very rich. The replica is very exquisite. The stitching, interface and leather are great. My friend likes it very much.

[@fintinryan7678]

It’s a long time classic. If your in the know, your in the know.

[@leelee12123]

I have 6 of them. I love it!

[@ann-marie8628]

Wow this could have been a perfect bag for me with 2 young children practical aswell as looking less "Mumsy" than the usual baby change/bags. I might have to invest ( unless I win 🤞), I need a good work bag as I'm a T.A and have all kinds of weird and wonderful things in my bag 😂 thanks for sharing 😉

[@juanamora710]

Very informative! Thank you 😊

[@dis1gyrl]

Love this bag!!

[@pdx_fashionista]

It’s my absolute favorite bag for traveling. Perfect to toss everything in there for the airport.

[@luxecollective]

yes it is!! what size is your favourite?

[@pdx_fashionista]

The one I use the most is M & L with the cross straps. So useful! And sometimes I pack the XL in case I went overboard with shopping. Takes no space in my suitcase and it’s so useful.

[@CCGem]

Favorite brand! Have 3.

[@landrea]

we dont have where to repair it in buenos aires!! do you know ???

[@yisbelip6198]

i love this bag!!! it is so comfy! i have the size m and backpacks

[@expatlifestyle6069]

This is a classic. It’s a winner in my mind. It’s $180 in Canada

[@summertravelbug870]

That is a bag I would like to have a better look at!❤

[@katnolido5536]

My favorite luxury bag

[@Bedtime231]

Have they been suggested I did something bad yet? Or cruel summer?

[@mariellamaffei7478]

Where do get this handbag in Australia

[@lanaava]

Love Longchamp ❤

[@Himinthehackettcap]

@luxecollective Make a vid on Burberry Bering banned in the early 2000s in various parts of England due to being associated with casuals.If I’m correct didn’t bring another out until recent years and and the check is different.Always found it interesting and never heard it be brought up in conversations.

[@walkerdufault]

I buy old Longchamps. They last forever. Ive only had one repaired and it was 20 years old

[@mrs.giannosp5507]

I love longchamp

[@haolieu3884]

Can you review: Demellier and Lalange please❤

[@bania6180]

After using my Longchamp bag for around 6 years there r holes on the corners of the bag! One of my bag also has bubbles! Does anyone face the same issues. I bought my Longchamp Le Pliage in Switzerland.
