Lockit Horizontal by Louis Vuitton - Designer Handbag & Purse Chat.. The Bag Forum

VivaLaJuicy · March 23rd, 2008, 08:57 PM

For quite some time now, I had been in search of that perfect large tote to use as a school bag; recently I discovered the bag I had been in search of, and that bag is the Lockit Horizontal by Louis Vuitton. I can’t wait to reveal, (I feel like I must) and share my personal opinions on this particular Vuitton bag.

First of all, the bag I was going to employ as my everyday college bag had to be big. How big? Well, my future bag had to be capable of at least carrying a 14” Dell laptop, spiral notebooks, at least one textbook, and my daily essentials, such as keys, wallet, compact, pen, and a lip gloss or two. Poor bag you might think, but I knew there had to be one.

I did research on the largest bags Louis Vuitton carried, and I had remembered (from a previous visit to an LV boutique), that the Lockit Horizontal had make the cut as a “large bag” and had been pretty appealing (appearance wise) to me as well. The Lockit Horizontal is a bag that doesn’t get much attention, but it did catch mine. I feel the Lockit is a mixture between two of Vuitton’s classics, the Speedy and the Alma. Why? Well it has the dome shaped structure and the Vachetta base of the Alma, and it also contains the lock feature, the soft body, and the round leather handles that can be found on the classic Speedy.

Upon purchasing and receiving the Lockit Horizontal, I knew I had chosen a great bag. It was perfect and just what I had been looking for. Not only is the Lockit a great school bag, but it’s also comfortable enough to take out on shopping sessions. If your ever in search of a large bag to use as a school bag, diaper bag, or just an everyday bag, I truly recommend you give the Lockit Horizontal a try.

How do you like it? Do you use it everyday for school?
I'd be soo scared to bring such a lovely bag to school..

Alicia · March 27th, 2008, 12:29 AM

Viva - i know you were specifically looking for a large school bag, but did you happen to see the smallest of the lockit bags? if so, how did it look in person?

I like it but I'm unsure of its' weirdish measurements....

Yeah... I can fit a laptop in there with no problem... it doesn't stretch out the handles either... the vachetta leather base holds up all the weight.... I'll take pics. later of a laptop in there...

THe regular lockit is really really really small.... It's smaller than a Speedy.... IDK... it's not an everyday bag , imo. It's waaay too small... and "structured"...

Jennifer · March 27th, 2008, 10:50 AM

^ yeah really. that size is really-really small. it's one that you should see in person first before purchasing. I like the size of viva's more

Alicia · March 27th, 2008, 02:01 PM

but you know, i don't even carry enough to fill up my speedy. i'll just have to check it out for myself

VivaLaJuicy · March 27th, 2008, 10:07 PM

Oh, and the small lockit or regular lockit... it's a handheld bag... just so you know... but yes go see it for yourself...

NashvilleDiva_83 · March 31st, 2008, 04:59 PM

I think the tote is a great choice...how do the bags hold up w every day use? I would be afraid to wear it out

tamyvinec · March 31st, 2008, 08:26 PM
