Epi leather
Also called Epi
Louis Vuitton's drum-dyed calf embossed with a wave pattern (1985).
Louis Vuitton says Epi was introduced in 1985, drawing on a 1920s grained leather. It is drum-dyed and embossed with the Epi motif, and the house calls it robust and scratch resistant. Fashionphile describes it as deep-dyed calfskin printed with a wave-like pattern, easy to wipe clean.
