Longchamp Le Pliage Original
- Categories

Foldable nylon tote with leather flap, French heritage classic since 1993. Sizes XS-XL, six colorways. Folds flat for travel.
A long-handle version (LH) is also sold โ worth it if you carry on your shoulder.
Leather-trimmed nylon (alternative): the Longchamp Le Pliage Original has been the same bag since 1993, and that's the point. It is a very light nylon bag that folds down small, and owners commonly report it lasting for years when it isn't overloaded. As a daily commute bag it's underwhelming โ owner reviews describe the straps lengthening under heavy daily loads of around 12 lb and up. As a packable extra for a two-week trip it's hard to beat.
Pros
- Folds flat to letter-size for packing
- Very light nylon body
- Sold in several sizes and handle lengths
Cons
- Owners report straps stretching under 12+ lb daily loads
- Nylon body looks more student than professional
