Hi. Can you please tell me if the flap stays closed without having to use the lock each time? I’m looking to perhaps buying this but if it’s a real pain to get in and out then may pass. Thanks a million!!
Hi its me the friend :) love it Matt looks amazing... still need to see if my allocation arrives to the store and then i will try to check it again... as u know I tried the White one with Rhino and as we discussed to me the straps are short to a point I was not sure anymore. That said I can tell u it sits lower on you even with the Vest on that it did on me with a polo shirt on... whatever the case it AMAZING huge congrats and thx for sharing!
First of all your video was wonderful Loved it and the modeling shots(I'm the queen of stinky videos remember....) This is one beautiful piece I tried it on and the straps were too short for me. I like a slouch in my backpack. I did however get two bags from the collection and I'm thinking of the keepall as well. I waited almost a whole year for these to launch and tried to be very good knowing I was going to invest in a few things. As an animal lover it was great to get them You have an amazing collection and an awesome channel Take care MJ
Beautiful Pieces! That Collection is Epic!! I like the inner pocket on the back... you could use it for important stuff (money, CC's) while wearing it to keep secure..:)
love your authentic not filtered reviews. UA-cam is saturated with these overly glam reviews that never talk about the products being used as intended. glad you do show real life
Hey MattD, new subscriber here! Just finished watching your videos really enjoyed them. Also currently waiting for this bag to come to my store, getting it in white 🙌 keep up the good work! 👏
Can someone please tell me if the bag stays closed without locking it?? Seems like a real pain if have to lock to secure the flap. Please? Anyone? Thanks.
That's the fucking coolest bag ever. Question, how do you afford all these bags? Do you work a normal job, 60-90k a year and just treat yourself a fair amount or do you own a business and make 150k + a year and can just afford these all the time?
I love this bag, thank you for the compliment on it! Its very fucking cool haha. I guess you could say I work a normal job but my income is something I will not discuss since thats more personal :)
I am so sad I have to be stuck with only being available in Eclispe or black Epi. When will LV release it in Classic monogram or Macassar!? This is definitely on my 2019 wishlist.
I am surprised they have not added more materials to this style of bag, however it may not be very popular of a style so they did away with it. I feel epi is slowly making a comeback with popularity so when they did Epi I could see why and when they did eclipse it was still a relatively new line so it made sense to me.
I like Epi, and I have seen both models at my store. I wish I tried them on, but since it similar size to the Zack, I know this backpack would fit right on my frame. lol But ugh...I want a red version of the Epi Steamer Backpack so bad! I might go with Eclipse since I am open to getting the Apollo backpack. But I am thinking of opting for this in Eclipse steamer. Although not my favorite print.
I would not do the Eclipse in the steamer and in the Apollo... why have 2? if I had to choose id say do the Steamer in the Eclipse if it was between those two specifically. What if they decide to do an Apollo in Epi... I have been waiting for that, I mean they just did Taiga... but they have yet to do a Taiga Christopher... so im sure there are reasons as to why.
MattD 74 Oh, no I don’t want two of the same print. Monogram Eclipse is not my favorite print but I am open to wanting the Apollo initially. But it had me thinking maybe go with the steamer in Eclipse instead of the Apollo. :)
Hey! You can sorta squish them together while using the belt/buckle closure thing but I kinda like them more "out" rather than squished in... but thats me!
Hey! my view on the Hiking backpack... there are 2 listed on the website that are different so I will give my view on both. The Monogram one I do enjoy, I like the overall design of it but the metal buckles just kill it for me. I do not care for that type of closure on a bag myself, the metal does help it look more expensive I will say that! Now the other hiking backpack which is made up of several different prints sorta weaved into one I think is absolutely beautiful! I seriously love everything about it but the price is ridiculous at $12,200.00!
Would have loved to have see how irritating it is having to keep unlocking the lock to get into the bag. Not great when you're in a hurry. And how is the key kept attached to the bag so it doesn't get lost? There doesn't seem to be a swing key pouch like on Hermes bags. As attractive as it is, it does't seem like good design, more like something to just hang on the wall and look at.
It is NOT that irritating, its just not that CONVENIENT if you have to constantly go in and out of your bag. The key is not meant to be attached to the bag, the lock is just a feature, if you wish to use it that and actually lock it while in use.
Surely irritating and inconvenient are almost the same thing? How can the lock be just a feature if you have to constantly unlock it to get access to the bag? And where do you keep the key? I do think it cheap of LV to not have made a clochette for the keys to hang on the bag for this style. Don't misunderstand me, it is visually a great looking back. But it does not function properly and cannot be considered good design.
Surely irritating and inconvenient are pretty much the same thing when it comes to design. So where do you keep the key? I think it's really cheap of LV to not make a clochette for this style of bag. And how can you say the lock is just a feature? It's not just a feature, you have lock it and unlock it to get access to the bag. Is there a possibility you're just obsessed with the brand and turn a blind eye to function?
hey! I am going to go with no on that. If they were to carrier over this style backpack to a permanent collection I would be surprised, but never say never! :) For my sake, I hope not!
its not too bad, takes some getting used to. I would never use it with the lock on it for one. So once you remove both straps through you simply lift the lid and you are good to go. The bag is very stiff (assuming since its new obviously or it's just made that way which is fine too for me) I did not do any interior shots because of the lighting and trying to hold the flap open while filming just would not work. I can do pics though for anyone and will post them on IG
MattD 74 oohhhh yes please to pics. I've just looked on Ebay here in the UK and there's one for sale for $6000, they've preordered it and will post it once they pick it up. Crazy
Best LV backpack I've ever seen! And my favorite one from your collection!

First of all your video was wonderful
Loved it and the modeling shots(I'm the queen of stinky videos remember....)
This is one beautiful piece
I tried it on and the straps were too short for me. I like a slouch in my backpack. I did however get two bags from the collection and I'm thinking of the keepall as well. I waited almost a whole year for these to launch and tried to be very good knowing I was going to invest in a few things.
As an animal lover it was great to get them
You have an amazing collection and an awesome channel
Take care
MJ

Beautiful Pieces! That Collection is Epic!! I like the inner pocket on the back... you could use it for important stuff (money, CC's) while wearing it to keep secure..:)

Subscribed
Thank you! :)
I already bought Monogram Eclipse APOLLO backpack! but this one the shape is more hard and perfect
Great choice you made, that one is a beauty and id love to see more pictures of it! This one is a more rigid piece, I love it!
Thanks for the review man only one on UA-cam
love this bag
love your authentic not filtered reviews. UA-cam is saturated with these overly glam reviews that never talk about the products being used as intended. glad you do show real life
GREAT VIDEO 👍🏼 ! JUST PLACED MY ORDER FOR THIS STEAMER BACKPACK 🙏🏼
hey! Thank you. I hope you get yours soon! Did you like the Rhino version or just the Elephant?
MattD 74 both look okay. But I would go with the elephant 😄
good choice ;) if I could Id get the rhino as well for my collection but I'm in absolute love with my Elephant :)
MattD 74 I would too. Asked my SA to order both for me. But from what I know there's is still another piece which have a giraffe on it
Jerome Chia I did see a Watercolor version of the backpack with several animals on it but am not certain its exclusive to other countries
Hey MattD, new subscriber here! Just finished watching your videos really enjoyed them. Also currently waiting for this bag to come to my store, getting it in white 🙌 keep up the good work! 👏
Hey thank you for watching! I appreciate that. Congrats on yours, hopefully you get it soon! I do love the white one! :)
MattD 74 yes thank you!!! And just got your approval on Instagram 🙌 so exited to keep up with you're LV collection!!
Is the color of the elephant really gray or blue?
Hey! Its like a gray white kinda
MattD 74 does the elephant steamer comes in blue color too?
Can someone please tell me if the bag stays closed without locking it?? Seems like a real pain if have to lock to secure the flap. Please? Anyone? Thanks.

Hi. I’m looking to get this piece. If possible, can you please send pics of the inside? Thanks!
How do you fold the sides of it when you lock the bag?
Hey! You can sorta squish them together while using the belt/buckle closure thing but I kinda like them more "out" rather than squished in... but thats me!
How much was the bag? I am looking to buy the bag aftermarket since it is limited addition and was curious to the original price.
Aaron Phan hey! It was $3400 USA
The elephant available in grey and blue color ?
Andrew Styler yeah that’s the question ive been asking this guy but he never replied did you found out if it is available in blue or gray?
Yes its available in both colors

Do you still have the bag? did you end up using it more than you planned? Or has it just bee on display? Thanks for sharing!
Awesome backpack! Just did a supreme x lv haul on my channel. We should collab
Is this available at stores? Do you know?? Man.... I love elephants like crazy and I'd definitely buy this LV bag. Great video, btw! :)
You are going to have to make some calls! I know this stuff is selling fast! Thank you! :)

You really should show how to open it
I just wanna know will an AR 15 pistol fit in the backpack
so are you using it. for that price i would want to use as much as possible
Hey! Its a piece I will not use very often but wanted it in my collection. I know what you are saying though and understand completely.
Where is the datecode on this bag? Which zipper?
M54126 you
Why have a zipper that you can’t enter the bag nor store items, it’s not practical but that’s LV for you...
Hello Mat! Do you know if this piece will come in the standard Monogram? Great piece! Congrats!
hey! I am going to go with no on that. If they were to carrier over this style backpack to a permanent collection I would be surprised, but never say never! :) For my sake, I hope not!
Love it! Will it stay closed if you remove the lock? Cheers
yes it will, you have to remove the straps through the loops. :)
MattD 74 Sounds tricky
its not too bad, takes some getting used to. I would never use it with the lock on it for one. So once you remove both straps through you simply lift the lid and you are good to go.

MattD 74 oohhhh yes please to pics. I've just looked on Ebay here in the UK and there's one for sale for $6000, they've preordered it and will post it once they pick it up. Crazy
I posted a picture on IG of the interior for everyone
