As seen from Louis Vuitton’s Spring/Summer 2009 show in Paris back in October 2008, the emblematic Kalahari named after the famous desert in Sub-Saharan Africa is crafted from the iconic Monogram canvas, natural cowhide and metallic leather trimmings and is distinguishable by its rounded supple shape, pleated flap and drawstring closure which makes it secure for everyday use. The bag’s resin beads, rope, and metal eyelets adds in the layer of ethnic motif in coherence to the spirit of the collection.
Monogram Kalahari features a flat inside pocket and a phone pocket. It can be carried by hand, elbow or on the shoulder with its comfortable leather flat handles being held together by shiny golden brass pieces. Kalahari comes in two sizes: PM (9.8″ x 9″ x 3.9″) and GM (13″ x 11.8″ x 3.5″), available at Louis Vuitton for $2660 and $3390 for PM and GM respectively.

I really love them both Bengt but I think I will wait for the Monogram Epices Kalahari.
Yeah, the Epices Kalahari seems pretty mysterious in regards to its size! I’d love to know what you think ’bout it when you see it in real life..

This bag is stunning!
I like the PM, its really small and compact. Great piece!
Help, which to go for the PM looks delightful but the GM’s probably more practicle. Then again I quite like to Beforedark too………..what to do, what to do?
can i no please the price how much it will cost each one
^ The prices are listed above. :)
HI! I need your expert advice asap. I recently bought a Kalahari GM in ebay but didn't notice that the colored resin hanging is colored yellow and the other side red. In the LV website, both hanging resins are yellow. Does this mean i bought a fake kalahari gm? Gosh i am so stressed out right now. Hope anybody here could help me. Thank you
Anonymous, I think Vuitton places the color of the resin beads in random…
Were these bags produced only in 2008/2009? I am looking at one that appears to have a date code for 2010, which I am concerned about. Thanks!
