The Louis Vuitton Keepall’s enduring and timeless elegance makes it the ultimate symbol of sophistication in the world of travel and beyond – and all our closets are craving one!
History of the Louis Vuitton Keepall
Louis Vuitton remains iconic for its travel luggage, trunk bags, and accessories. The Keepall was designed by Gaston Vuitton and draws inspiration from Louis Vuitton’s travel luggage. The Keepall’s exceptional appeal, particularly evident upon its introduction in the 1930s, lies in its departure from the heavy and boxy luggage norms of the time. Instead, the Keepall embraces a light, flexible, and convenient design, perfectly suited for spontaneous travelers yearning for quick and effortless departures.
Louis Vuitton Keepall Size Comparisons
The Louis Vuitton Keepall comes in four sizes: 45, 50, 55, and 60 and these numbers are indicative of the length of the Keepall in centimeters.
The Keepall 45 measures approximately 17.7” x 10.6” x 7.9”
The Keepall 50 measures approximately 19.7” x 11.4” x 8.7”

It appears that Louis Vuitton has phased out production of the regular Keepalls with the exception of the Keepall 55. The rest of the Keepalls available directly through Louis Vuitton are Bandoulieres. The Bandouliere style comes in sizes 45, 50, 55, and 60 and the measurements are the same as the regular Keepall.
