This Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandoulière 25 in brown Monogram Empreinte leather with brass hardware is in very good vintage condition, with wear to the corners and edges and light interior traces of use. A refined choice for daily wear, lunch dates or city errands, it brings understated Louis Vuitton polish to both casual and smarter looks.
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 Louis Vuitton Empreinte Speedy Bandoulière 25? A: With measurements of approximately 25 × 18 × 12 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials rather than bulky work or travel items. It should comfortably fit a phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, tissues, lipstick and a few small extras. It is not the right size for a laptop, A4 documents or larger bottles.
Q: Can this bag be carried by hand, on the shoulder or cross-body? A: Yes. This piece has dual rolled handles with an approximate 6 cm handle drop, plus a detachable shoulder strap with an approximate 50 cm drop. For many people that is long enough for shoulder or cross-body wear, although the fit will vary slightly depending on height and styling preference.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag has a zip-top main compartment with a tonal striped fabric lining and internal pockets, making it easier to separate smaller essentials from the main interior.
Q: What is Monogram Empreinte leather? A: Monogram Empreinte is Louis Vuitton’s supple embossed leather, with the Monogram motif pressed into the surface. It feels softer and more understated than coated canvas, while still giving the bag a distinctly Louis Vuitton look.
Q: Does the Empreinte Speedy 25 keep its shape well? A: Generally yes. Owners often find that Empreinte versions feel more structured than canvas Speedy styles, especially at the base, although the softer leather can relax slightly at the sides over time. Light stuffing during storage can help maintain the silhouette.
Q: What comes with this bag? A: According to the product information for this piece, it includes a detachable shoulder strap, padlock, keys and clochette. If you would like confirmation before purchase, our team can help.
Q: What condition is this particular bag in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior shows wear on the corners and edges, the interior has light traces of use with some scuffed corners, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What does the code SP4122 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used date codes rather than unique serial numbers on older bags. Based on the usual Louis Vuitton code format, SP4122 indicates production in France in the 42nd week of 2012. As always, a date code alone is not proof of authenticity.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed for authenticity using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and codes. We only offer pieces we believe to be authentic and can provide extra product information on request.
Q: How should I care for Monogram Empreinte leather? A: Use a soft cloth for gentle cleaning and store the bag loosely stuffed when not in use to help preserve its shape. Try to avoid abrasive surfaces, excess moisture, direct heat, prolonged sunlight, perfume, oils and coloured materials that could transfer onto the leather.
