I need a good everyday work bag recommendation. I was looking at the Neverfull but some of the back and forth on how LV quality is down made me take pause. I want something high in quality but don’t want to go over $3k. Any suggestions?

I don’t think the quality has gone down tbh and I’m considering that bag myself. For the winter I’m using the Goyard Anjou or Artois. I’m not sure what prices are for those models these days, however! Inflation and frequency/magnitude of price increases these days are crazy!!!

Maybe not the level of designer youre looking for but I’ve been using this bag for a good year now and I absolutely love it + get a ton of compliments on it.

I also have a bag similar to the Neverfull from Off White and I find the lack of pockets/sleeves really frustrating when using as a work bag.

+1 to this! Saffiano is the most durable and I personally take a Celine bag to work everyday as my tote and I love it. Found it on Poshmark

Significantly lower but I just bought a tote from cuyana which I am very happy with. I’ve had a cuyana bag before which lasted years.

I’m considering (or have) these and they are all a lot less expensive lol than a neverfull.

Don’t get a neverfull - straps are thin so it digs into your shoulder when full/traveling. And it doesn’t close! If your bag falls on its side the contents spill, the worst especially on short under seat storage. I have an LV with a zipper that they now longer make but it’s totally cracked so I’m not a fan. I love my bags from Celine and that the brand isn’t ostentatious which some clients find off putting.

Never full is more of an airport bag than a regular tote for work. I like organization and not have to look for stuff on an everyday basis and love BÉIS totes for that reason. Also, senreve is another favorite of mine except I don't use it for metro commute. I also abuse my longchamp for days when it's rainy or snowy and I know my bag will be weather abused. Also, russet it a Japanese brand very similar to long champ/goyard but with better quality. The website is a bit tricky as it's in Japanese, but if you can use google translate, it is very durable quality with global shipping. I have always shopped in person for all my Japanese handbag brands so caveat, I am not familiar with shipping costs.
