You want to know which Goyard bag is the most iconic? First is the Goyard Saint Louis Bag, second is the Goyard Saigon Bag. It’s a classic piece, because of the historic design and the background story. You see, the Goyard Saigon Bag represents the house’s traditional trunk-making craftsmanship the company was established in 1792 and their original vision was to make the best boxes and trunks. Now the maison’s history continues to live inside the Saigon Bag. You can find trunk details like the leather corners, rivets and the wood batons, all of which are uniquely handcrafted. There are 2 editions of this bag – structured and unstructured; the difference between these two is that the unstructured is slouchy, offers more space and it’s more easy-going. The structured version is more rigid and holds shape better, but in my opinion, more elegant. The Goyard Saigon Bag was originally created for a French customer living in Indochina. This customer placed a special order in the 1930s and asked Goyard to construct a special bag, with inspiration drawn from the Far East. And thus Goyard fulfilled this order, but they also made this bag one of the classics of the house.
