Looking for the perfect gift for the man in your life? Look no further than the Damier Graphite from Louis Vuitton-- it's chic yet masculine and boasts a 120 year history in the world of fashion. A decade before the monogram was created, Georges Vuitton patented the checkered patterned design that has launched a thousand imitators but as with all things, there is nothing better than the original. Understated and elegant, the Graphite Damier is finished in smooth black leather and palladium hardware. Available at Louis Vuitton boutiques worldwide this weekend! Louis Vuitton also available online at eLUXURY.com

You're.... really recommending a Louis Vuitton bag..?!?!
I quite like this, but didn't like that animal print thing they did with it the other time. I have the azur version for a carry on, and it's fab..
I like the guy in the photos
much more than the bags...LOL
LOL, you all know how I feel about the crazy bags from LV but I've always liked the Damier-- so timeless. I have small carry on luggage, bags and a planner in the classic Damier pattern from 10 years ago-- still sturdy and in perfect condition.

I picked up my Damier Graphite Keepall 55 yesterday - it was released on the 15th and I was on the wait list for the Keepall. The Damier Graphite is perfect for men - it's understated, classic, and perfect for travel or the gym. Messenger bags? Not so much.
Manbag, I was actually thinking about you when I wrote this up!
I've always liked the Damier.I like this color....Have you seen the camo print LV? NOT SO liking it!!
OMG, had no internet service for a couple of days and had bag, beauty and couture withdrawls! All is back on thankfully.
I find this to be beautiful, even for a woman. Black and gray is so pretty together.
I´m sure that the only travel bag, or any bag,that my husband would be willing to travel with is the rough Marlboro Classics large bag. It is heavy as hell,but HE carries it himself. We have 2 large bags and if or when we will travel, I´ll pack my stuff in the other and then he will have 2 heavy bags to carry!!
I know the Marlboro classics bag, but check out the Louis Vuitton UTAH Leather Bags, they share the same basic idea but they look SO elegant. Roots and elegant...
i've always loved the damier! can't wait to get my hands on this color, even though it's a homme color
Louis Vuitton is definitely a status symbol but there are other luggage houses that have a similar history, like Dunhill
ugh! manbag,i was eyeing that keepall...should've known you were gonna beat me to it. :/
b - i know right...that camo is a mess!
James, is that you?? has your comp been down this whole time? or just taking a break?? =) (or both) glad to have you back!!
B..
Does anybody know if they will be coming out with a speedy in the Graphite Damier?
The answer is no, this line is mens only.
A few women buy it because they look nice. But the idea s to develop a specific design for mens.
While women don't mind wearing men's LV bags like this one, mens don't feel confortable wearing what might be associated with women fashion. That's why you will probably not find you usual alma, Speedy or Bucket in graphite.
Sorry, but hey, you have the Minilin, Murakami and the Damier Azur, why would you need to wear our bags ?
