If you are a proud owner of a Louis Vuitton wallet, chances are you also have a keychain attached to it. While the keychain adds a touch of personality to your wallet, there may come a time when you need to remove it.
Perhaps you want to switch it out for a different keychain or just want to simplify your wallet’s design. Whatever the reason may be, removing a Louis Vuitton wallet keychain can be tricky if you don’t know how to do it properly.
Step 1: Locate the Keychain Attachment
The first step in removing your Louis Vuitton wallet keychain is to locate where it is attached. Typically, the keychain will be attached to one of the zipper pulls or D-rings on your wallet.
Step 2: Identify the Type of Attachment
Once you have located the keychain attachment point, take note of what type of attachment it is. Louis Vuitton wallets usually have two types of keychain attachments – a lobster clasp or a split ring.
- A lobster clasp is similar to what you would find on a necklace or bracelet and has a small lever that opens and closes the clasp.
- A split ring is just like a traditional keyring and requires you to pull apart two metal rings.
Knowing which type of attachment your Louis Vuitton wallet has will determine how you remove the keychain.
Step 3: Remove the Keychain
Removing A Lobster Clasp:
If your Louis Vuitton wallet has a lobster clasp, follow these steps:
- Gently pull down on the lever of the clasp to open it.
- Slide the clasp off of the attachment point.
- If there is an additional jump ring (a small metal ring that connects the clasp to the keychain), slide it off as well.
Removing A Split Ring:
If your Louis Vuitton wallet has a split ring, follow these steps:
- Use your fingers or a pair of pliers to pull apart the two metal rings on the split ring.
- Slide the split ring off of the attachment point.
Step 4: Reattach or Replace
Once you have successfully removed your Louis Vuitton wallet keychain, you can either choose to reattach it or replace it with a new one. If you are replacing it, make sure to choose a keychain that is compatible with your wallet’s attachment point.
