The Ultimate Bag Guide: The Goyard St. Louis Tote and Goyard Anjou Tote

Image via Vestiaire Collective

Many luxury brands are secretive when it comes to pricing, availability and selection, but even among the cagey elite of high-end handbags, Goyard is the quietest. The brand, which dates back to mid-19th century France, provides no product listings of any kind on its websites and sells its wares in only a handful of locations worldwide. In spite of that, the Goyard St. Louis Tote is one of the most recognizable bags in the world, beloved by busy moms, frequent travelers and anyone who needs a lightweight, functional tote that can hold a ton.

Because helping you research the things on your shopping lists and make the best, most informed purchases possible is our whole reason for being here, we did a deep dive into the Goyard St. Louis Tote (and it’s newer, more expensive sister, the Anjou) and its sizes, prices, colors and availability. Check out all of our results below and let us know in the comments if you have some information that would be useful to add!

Personalization

Goyard offers painted personalization on all St. Louis and Anjou Totes in a variety of color combinations and aesthetic configurations, including monogramming, stripes and stars. Prices start at around $150 for up to six letters, $150 for stripes and $600 and up for stars or other custom-ordered additions. Personalization services are all hand-painted in one of three workshops (San Francisco, Tokyo or Carcassone, France), which means they take at least 3 to 4 weeks for completion.

Materials

All St. Louis Totes are made out of Goyardine, which is a colored textile made from cotton, linen and hemp and then coated for durability, which gives it a leather-like look. Both St. Louis and Anjou totes are reversible, and with the Anjou, with one side is Goyardine and one side is solid-colored leather, which accounts for the difference in price..
