The leather handles are widely reported as the first part of this tote to wear out, with multiple reviewers noting handle cracking, though at least one owner reported no cracking even after heavy use and another noted the sharp look feels thicker and sturdier in person.

View QC PhotosQuick verdict
A fit for someone who wants a light, unstructured, reversible tote and is willing to check handle condition and actual measurements before ordering. Because no buyer evidence exists for this specific listing, sizing and handle-wear notes below describe the Goyard Saint Louis line generally, not this item.
Reference price
$64.25 USD $75.95Final item price, service fees and international shipping are confirmed on the shopping agent's website.
Pros
- · Line-level reviews describe the Saint Louis shape as exceptionally light and able to fold relatively flat for storage.
- · The same reviews highlight a reversible design, and the listing describes a double-sided build.
- · Listing states a coated linen base with a glossy gum finish and grain texture, top-layer South African pebbled leather trim, steel hardware, and matched symmetric pattern.
Cons
- · Handles are widely reported as the first component to wear, with multiple reviewers noting cracking; at least one owner reported no cracking after heavy use.
- · Some owners report handle cracking when the bag is carried in very cold temperatures.
- · Strap drop is short (about 6.5 in on the smaller size, 7.75 in on the larger), so it can sit tight over a heavy coat.
- · The soft, open construction will not hold a rigid shape.
Fit notes
Listing gives three sizes: small with a 28 cm opening and 20 x 19 x 10 cm base; medium with a 47 cm opening and 34 x 27 x 14 cm base; large with a 55 cm opening and 40 x 30 x 15 cm base. Goyard's own naming is PM and GM, so these small/medium/large labels map only loosely.
Buy if
You want a soft, open tote that folds flat, and you will confirm the exact size, the strap drop in inches, and the handle condition from the seller before paying. Line-level reviews describe this shape as easy to carry daily and on trips.
Skip if
You need a structured bag that stands on its own, or you plan to wear it over a heavy winter coat without checking the strap drop. If you want documented buyer feedback on this exact listing, none is available.

Buying FAQ
Common questions
Which size is right for everyday use?⌄
Line-level guidance puts the smallest size with everyday essentials and the largest with travel and weekend trips, where it reportedly fits a 16-inch laptop with room to spare.
How do the handles hold up?⌄
Multiple reviewers report handle cracking as the first point of wear, and some link it to very cold temperatures; one owner reported no cracking after heavy use, so the record is mixed. Verify handle condition on the specific bag before buying.
Will it fit over a winter coat?⌄
Strap drop runs about 6.5 in on the smaller size and about 7.75 in on the larger, so the larger bag gains little extra shoulder clearance and can sit tight over a heavy coat.
Do the listed sizes match Goyard's official names?⌄
Goyard names its sizes PM and GM, and an XXL was previously offered and has been discontinued, so third-party small/medium/large labels correspond only loosely to the official names.
Does the bag hold its shape?⌄
No. The design is soft, open, and unstructured, which lets it swallow bulky or awkward items but means it will not keep a rigid silhouette.
Evidence
Public notes used
Some owners report that the handles can start to crack when the bag is carried in very cold temperatures, a durability concern for winter use.
SourceGoyard's own size naming is PM (Petit Modèle, the small) and GM (Grand Modèle, the medium/large), and the line previously included an XXL that has since been discontinued, so third-party listings that use 'small/medium/large' map only loosely onto the official names.
SourceReviewers highlight the line's exceptionally light construction, reversible design, and ability to fold relatively flat for storage, which makes it practical for daily and travel use.
SourceThe largest version of this Goyard-style tote is a true big tote suited to travel and weekend trips and reportedly fits a 16-inch laptop with room to spare, while the smallest size is better for everyday essentials.
SourceBecause the Saint Louis-style tote is soft, open, and unstructured, it swallows awkward or bulky items better than a boxier tote with the same listed measurements, but it will not hold a rigid shape.
SourceShoulder strap drop on the Saint Louis line is relatively short (about 6.5 in on the smaller size and about 7.75 in on the larger one), so the larger bag does not gain much extra shoulder clearance and can sit tight when worn over a heavy coat.
