C: 2020 A sophisticated reinterpretation of one of Louis Vuitton’s most iconic backpacks, the Montsouris PM is crafted from supple Monogram Empreinte calf leather embossed with the Maison’s signature Monogram pattern. Featuring a structured yet lightweight silhouette, adjustable leather shoulder straps, a top handle, and a convenient exterior zip pocket, this backpack seamlessly blends everyday functionality with understated luxury. The embossed leather and minimal hardware give it a refined “quiet luxury” aesthetic while maintaining unmistakable Louis Vuitton craftsmanship. Originally introduced in the 1990s in Monogram Canvas, the Montsouris backpack became one of Louis Vuitton’s most beloved travel and lifestyle bags. In 2020, the house revived the silhouette with a modern update in luxurious Monogram Empreinte leather under Nicolas Ghesquière’s creative direction. The redesign replaced the traditional drawstring flap with a streamlined zip-top opening while preserving the backpack’s timeless shape. Today, the Montsouris PM is appreciated for combining heritage design with contemporary practicality.
