First off, let’s be real, Goyard…it’s fancy. Like, *really* fancy. We’re talking “I secretly judge people’s shoes” fancy. But hey, if you got the bread, why not?
So, the Belvedere bags? Yeah, those are a classic. The PM and MM, right? They got that iconic Goyardine print, that kinda like… criss-cross thing? You know what I mean. And they look sleek. Like, “I just stepped off my yacht” sleek. But tbh (to be honest), sometimes I feel like they’re trying *too* hard. Like, relax dude, it’s just a bag.
Then you got the Capétien messenger bag. This one’s interesting. Apparently, it’s a newbie in the men’s lineup. It’s supposed to be giving Saint Louis vibes, but… I dunno. It’s got that open flap situation, which can be cool, but also…kinda sketchy if you’re worried about your stuff falling out. Like, I’m clumsy enough as it is, I don’t need a bag that’s actively trying to ditch my wallet.
Speaking of wallets…are these bags worth the price? Honestly, that’s a tough one. You’re paying for the name, the craftsmanship (supposedly top-notch), and that whole “exclusive” vibe. But, like, is it *actually* better than, say, a more reasonably priced leather bag? Maybe. Maybe not. Depends on how much you value bragging rights, I guess.
And you can always hit up StockX. It seems like a lot of people are buying and selling these bags there. Might find a deal, might not. Just be careful, ya know? Make sure it’s legit before you drop a small fortune on a used bag. Nobody wants to get scammed.
Personally, I kinda dig the crossbody thing. Keeps your hands free, which is crucial when you’re trying to juggle a coffee and a phone, am I right? Plus, it’s kinda… understated? (Well, as understated as Goyard can be, anyway.)
But yeah, Goyard crossbody bags… They’re a status symbol, plain and simple. Are they practical? Sure, probably. Are they beautiful? Subjective. Are they ridiculously expensive? You betcha.
