Louis Vuitton Reinvents The Epi With Epi Soft XL

Louis Vuitton Men’s Fall-Winter 2023 collection officially launches at last. And there’s no better way to showcase in its entirety than by having j-hope of BTS on board for the captivating campaign. The house ambassador wears patchwork ensembles that are integral to the collection, pairing several looks with bags featuring the reinvented Epi Soft XL.

Epi leather is popular for its lightly embossed exterior that keeps it resistant to daily wear. Bags crafted in Epi typically come in a structured shape, but the new Epi Soft XL offers a different finish. Using softer calfskin for extra flexibility, it also features an oversized embossed pattern that gives it an extra graphic element.

Epi Soft XL graces fresh designs such as the Alma Travel GM (SGD6700) and Maxi Noé Sling (SGD6500). Both come in large sizes measuring 64 cm by 42 cm and 48 cm by 34 cm respectively. The former is a carryall version of the signature women’s handbag, while the latter doubles as a backpack via an innovative D-ring design.

There’s also the Soft Polochon MM in Cognac Epi Soft XL that j-hope totes. A second variation, in Gradient Electric Sun, offers a vibrant, seasonal alternative. This effect also appears on the Keepall Bandoulière 50 (SGD6850), with the Epi Soft XL adding a new dimension for those looking to add a pop of colour to their bag rotation.
