For Goodlooking Guys on the Go: Info On Men's Replica & Genuine Bags*RepGeek Award Winning Thread*

[roflwaffle]

While I understand peoples allure to LV, the monogram pattern really just tends to make me a bit ill. I really cannot imagine anything more unattractive. It looks like something vomitted out of the 70s..

The 'rolex' comparison seems very fitting. "It isn't about looks, style, or anything like that. there are better products at the same price point made by smaller companies, but damned if they dont sell best because of their name and image as 'youve made it' "

Out of all the ones shown, I'd probably go for:



only without the toolbag look of the guy holding it.

but I imagine in rep form,would just be a total turdfest (anything leather in rep is usually pretty poor, maybe bags are different).

Waff, you're right, to a degree, about the pattern. It isn't for everyone. But it helped define the company at it's beginning and now it is a symbol of that heritage. The good thing is since LVMH brought aboard Marc Jacobs all those years ago, you have even MORE choices as fair as patterns, colors and designs to choose from. Everyone was glad the Monogram Canvas Multicolore in white and black came out and actually is a regular product you can still buy. So many LV designs are temporary!

Merk, Jordan, Spekoli and Fathom: thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you liked it. As for those trojans , Fathom, that's a new one on me. I haven't experienced those problems myself. And Spekoli, they are not man purses they are travel cases and battle satchels (I just came up with that!).

Merk, the Pegase replica is perennially a bestseller, for both LV and their people who make the rep of it. I'd try emailing a dealer or site that you prefer and having them source it for you. Make sure they source the good ones and not the Canal St. Special.

battle satchels (I just came up with that!).

My battle satchel is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true Emperor, Marcus Aurelius, Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife, and I will have my vengeance, in this life... or the next. So back off, and don't touch my LV special!
