5 Luxury SLGs Worth the Splurge in 2025
Small leather goods (also known as SLGs) are often viewed as a good entry point into the world of luxury. Sleek, stylish, and undeniably practical, these miniature pieces offer a taste of craftsmanship and prestige without the daunting investment of a full-sized handbag. But with so many options available, how do you know which ones are truly worth the splurge? Well, in 2025, certain designs are standing out! Whether it is for their timeless elegance, compact size that fits into most handbags, or endless versatility, these pieces have rightfully earned their spots in luxury lover collections around the world. Ahead, my personal top 5 of the best luxury SLGs worth the splurge.
1. Chanel O-Case (Classic Zipped Pouch)
Effortlessly chic and undeniably iconic, the Chanel O-Case remains among the most coveted small leather goods among luxury aficionados. Available in various sizes and materials, from buttery lambskin to the brand’s signature caviar leather, it’s typically used (mini size) as a catchall inside handbags or as a clutch (larger size). As of May 2025, the O-Case is also priced at $625 for the mini and $1,375 for the larger size, making it one of the best-value Chanel items on the market.
2. Hermès Calvi Cardholder
Minimalists and Hermès aficionados alike swear by the Calvi Card Holder. Deceptively simple in design, this clever little piece opens up to reveal two spacious compartments, capable of holding everything from cards to cash and receipts. Usually arriving in the brand’s durable Epsom leather, the Calvi Card Holder is also highly customizable, with a special order option available for the most discerning customers.
3. Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette
If there’s one small leather good that’s earned cult status across generations, it’s the Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette. As versatile as it is adorable, this tiny zippered pouch with a chain can function as a mini clutch, a cosmetics holder, or a catchall inside a handbag. Often comparable in size to the Chanel Mini O-Case, the Louis Vuitton Mini Pochette also comes available in a range of materials, including the classic Monogram Damier Ebene and Damier Azure canvas, as well as leather and limited edition versions.
4. Louis Vuitton Key Pouch
Recently, Louis Vuitton has expanded its Key Pouch range with the addition of the three new sizes, which truly goes to show how insanely popular this piece is! But all jokes aside, the original Key Pouch is an absolute staple in collections of many luxury lovers due to its multiple possible uses, including holding keys, cards, coins, folded cash, earbuds, or even lip balm. Furthermore, its relatively affordable price ($340 as of May 2025) makes it a perfect starter piece for any aspiring Louis Vuitton collector.
5. Louis Vuitton Rosalie Coin Purse
A lot of people say that wallets are a thing of the past. But you know, I truly believe everyone should own at least a compact wallet. My personal top pick: the Louis Vuitton Rosalie Coin Purse. Arriving in the brand’s classic canvas, as well as Empreite leather and limited edition options, this compact wallet fits effortlessly into most mini bags, while still being surprisingly spacious with card slots, a coin pocket, and room for folded bills. Seriously, if you’re looking for a compact wallet, don’t sleep on the Rosalie!
