Louis Vuitton Sandwich Bag Costs More Than $3,000

Opting to bring your lunch to the workplace is a practical and budget-friendly choice, offering a considerable financial advantage. This frugality takes a whimsical turn when your homemade meal is tucked away in a sandwich bag from the exclusive Louis Vuitton x Pharrell Williams collaboration. While the intention may be to economize, the presence of such high-end accessories adds a touch of luxury to an otherwise cost-effective routine, making your lunch experience a blend of practicality and extravagance.

Pharrell Williams, the renowned singer-songwriter who took on the position of Men’s Creative Director at the French fashion house, found creative inspiration in the typical paper sandwich bag. He ingeniously reinterpreted it into a unique fashion statement. Constructed from cowhide leather, the substantial clutch bag is unveiled in the same hue as the brand’s signature (paper) bags, as disclosed in the label’s official announcement.

The bag’s appeal lies in its simplicity, enhanced by its source of inspiration. Whether you choose to elevate or casualize it is entirely up to you. On the brand’s website, the bag is showcased alongside a relaxed LV logo-printed jacket, a style that wouldn’t seem out of character for Williams himself.

The resemblances extend beyond that point. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail to replicate its everyday counterpart, the accessory prominently features the iconic Louis Vuitton lettering and a blue closure reminiscent of the grosgrain handles adorning the brand’s bags. This design not only ensures the secure transport of sandwiches but also hints at the possibility of safeguarding something even more valuable. 

Remembering to bring back my bag from the shared workspace at the office has proven to be a challenge for me. Now, adding to the complexity, there’s an additional frustration to serve as a constant reminder to ensure I don’t overlook bringing my expensive bag back.

The limited-edition Louis Vuitton x Pharrell Williams bag hit the market on January 4, exclusively offered at the brand’s West Hollywood pop-up store, carrying a price tag of $3,130.
