New Crocodile And Alligator Handbags

+Louis Vuitton releases five new crocodile and alligator handbags starting at $10,000. These ultra luxurious bags are part of Louis Vuitton’s stated plan to try and capture a larger segment of the high-end consumer market.

The interesting take on the bags is that they lack the famed LV monogram stamped prominently on the side. Louis Vuitton is saying with these bags that luxury isn’t announced with a logo. Instead, the focus is on best-of-the-best design, quality and materials.

I heard you can get the Louis Vuitton Damier Neverfull MM Bag in Japan & Hawaii now. Exotic skin handbags always wow the eyes (and the pocketbook). The latest collection of handbags by Louis Vuitton are no exception.


Louis Vuitton has been a very sought-after bag. Crocodile and alligator skins are often misidentified by retailers or used interchangeably. The Alligatoridae family includes the American alligator and the caimans; Crocodylidae includes the saltwater (porosus) and Nile (niloticus). There are other varieties, but these four are the only ones legally traded in the United States.
