Louis Vuitton x Nba Nil Messenger Monogram

The Louis Vuitton x NBA Nil Messenger is a cross-body bag from Virgil Abloh's collaboration with the NBA, built on classic brown Monogram coated canvas. It reworks the heritage pattern with sport-inspired detailing: a leather NBA logo patch, a contrast white leather trim, a bold blue leather strap, and gold-tone brass hardware, so it reads as Louis Vuitton first and streetwear second. "Nil" is the model name Louis Vuitton gave this messenger silhouette.

It is a practical everyday size, around 26 by 20 by 8 cm, closing with a zip and opening to a blue textile interior with slip pockets, plus outside pockets and a slip pocket on the back. The adjustable leather strap lets you set the drop for shoulder or cross-body wear, and a removable leather luggage tag finishes it. The mix of Monogram canvas with the NBA branding is exactly the kind of piece that made the collaboration sell out.

This one is new and comes with its original receipt. At Konesseur, every Louis Vuitton is authenticated before listing, and the LV x NBA pieces have become collectible since the collaboration ended. Browse more Louis Vuitton or the wider men's bags range to compare.
