A timeless companion for weekend getaways or short business trips, it brings iconic Louis Vuitton style to travel with effortless sophistication.
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 Monogram Keepall Bandoulière 55? A: With approximate measurements of 55 x 30 x 25 cm, this size is designed as a roomy weekender. It generally fits several outfits, shoes, a wash bag, and other travel essentials for a short break. Packing capacity will vary depending on how structured or bulky your items are.
Q: Is the Keepall 55 suitable as cabin baggage? A: The Keepall 55 is widely regarded as a cabin-friendly size, and Louis Vuitton describes the 55 as cabin size. That said, airline allowances vary, and some carriers are stricter than others, so it is best to check your airline’s current limits before travelling.
Q: Does this item come with a shoulder strap? A: Yes. This is the Bandoulière version, which includes a detachable shoulder strap. For this specific item, the strap drop is approximately 50 cm at its maximum adjustment, and the bag can also be carried by its dual rolled handles.
Q: What items are included with this bag? A: Everything included is listed under the product information for this piece: a detachable shoulder strap, name tag, and poignet. If an item is not listed there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Is the patina on the leather normal? A: Yes. Louis Vuitton’s natural vachetta leather is known to darken and develop an amber patina over time, and it can also show watermarks and surface wear with age. On this vintage piece, the visible patina, watermarks, and scuffing on the base and trim are consistent with use and age.
Q: How should I care for vintage Monogram canvas and vachetta leather? A: Handle the bag with clean, dry hands and avoid contact with rain, oils, perfumes, hand sanitiser, and heavy friction. Clean the canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth, and if the natural leather gets wet, blot it straight away with a light-coloured absorbent cloth. Store it carefully in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to heat or direct sunlight.
Q: What does the serial number TH0968 indicate? A: Louis Vuitton used date codes on vintage pieces to indicate when and where an item was made. Based on the 1990 to 2006 code format, TH0968 points to production in France in June 1998. Date codes are useful for dating a bag, but they are not a standalone proof of authenticity.
Q: What is the overall condition of this bag? A: The bag is listed in Very Good condition overall. The interior shows a light trace of use, the hardware remains shiny with light scratches, and the exterior shows vintage wear to the vachetta leather, including patina, watermarks, and scuffing.
Q: Is the Keepall 55 comfortable to carry when full? A: The Bandoulière design is more versatile than the classic handheld Keepall because you can switch between the handles and shoulder strap. However, owners often note that a 55 can become quite heavy when packed for travel, so it is best suited to weekend use and thoughtful packing rather than overfilling.
