Perfect for a polished day-to-night city schedule, this Louis Vuitton Empreinte Neo Alma PM in black elevates a work suit by day and pairs effortlessly with a little black dress for dinner. Its structured silhouette and discreet Monogram embossing add refined edge to meetings, gallery openings, or a weekend brunch.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Néo Alma PM? A: With approximate measurements of 35 × 24 × 15 cm and a dome-shaped opening, it comfortably holds an 11-inch tablet, long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses and a small cosmetics pouch, plus an A5 notebook. An A4 folder or a 13-inch laptop does not fit comfortably. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: The shoulder strap on this model has an approximate 42 cm drop. On most heights this wears best as a short shoulder bag rather than a true crossbody, where it may sit quite high on the torso.
Q: Is the strap detachable or adjustable on this piece? A: This item includes a detachable shoulder strap as listed in the product information. Strap designs can vary by season; for this specific piece, please refer to the photos and Measurements. The measured strap drop is approximately 42 cm.
Q: Does the bag have protective base feet? A: Yes, the Néo Alma PM features four metal feet to help protect the base when set down.
Q: What leather is this and how should I care for it? A: Monogram Empreinte is grained cowhide leather embossed with the LV motif. Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow to dry naturally, keep away from oils/solvents and direct heat, and store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape. Light-coloured clothing may transfer dye; avoid prolonged contact with dark textiles.
Q: Is it rain-safe? A: Empreinte leather is durable and more resilient than untreated vachetta, but it is not waterproof. If it gets wet, blot gently and let it air-dry. Repeated heavy exposure to rain or moisture should be avoided.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As detailed in the product information, this piece comes with a detachable shoulder strap, padlock, key and clochette.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag, and why might the serial number be illegible? A: Louis Vuitton used heat-stamped date codes for many years; from 2021 the brand introduced hidden NFC microchips instead of visible codes. A Retro Tale authenticates every item using expert multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware and stamps, so an older bag with a worn/illegible code can still be confidently verified.
Q: Where was this one made? A: The country-of-origin label states France for this item. Louis Vuitton manufactures in several countries, so authentic pieces may be made in France, Italy, Spain, the USA and others.
Q: How does the Néo Alma PM differ from the classic Alma PM? A: The Néo Alma PM is typically crafted in soft Monogram Empreinte leather with a removable shoulder strap and a microfiber (suede-like) interior, whereas the classic Alma PM is commonly seen in coated Monogram canvas with natural leather trim and is primarily carried by hand (strap options vary by model and season).
