The Speedy is one of Louis Vuitton's most iconic models. Originally inspired by the house's travel bags, it has become an emblematic handbag thanks to its supple construction, practical format and instantly recognisable Monogram canvas. The Speedy 25 reprises this silhouette in a size particularly suited to everyday use.

This 1995 version features all the model's historic codes: brown Monogram coated canvas, vachetta leather trim and hand carry. The leather now has a beautiful, even dark caramel patina, with handles slightly darker than the rest of the trim. This natural evolution of the leather fully contributes to the charm of vintage Speedy bags.

With dimensions of 26 × 18.5 × 16 cm, the Speedy 25 offers an appealing balance between compactness and capacity. Its single compartment and slip pocket make it easy to organise everyday essentials: phone, continental wallet, cosmetic pouch, passport, AirPods and keys. It is carried exclusively by hand and retains the Speedy's characteristic supple silhouette.

The canvas remains clean overall and the corners show only very slight rubbing. The interior is clean with a few signs of previous use. Please note that the leather zip pull has slight weakness at the rivet, visible in the photos. The bag is sold with its padlock and key, as well as a RARR Vintage dust bag and RARR Vintage certificate of authenticity.

Good overall condition, grade B — beautiful even leather patina, clean canvas and well-preserved interior. The slight rubbing on the corners and the weakness of the zip pull rivet are the main signs of use to note. A vintage piece full of character, ideal for rediscovering the timeless aesthetic of the 1990s Monogram Speedy.
