Your go-to tote for busy days and city breaks, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Neverfull GM offers effortless polish from office to weekend. With its classic canvas and comfortable shoulder carry, it neatly holds everyday essentials, making it a refined choice for work, errands or travel.
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 Neverfull GM? A: The GM is the largest Neverfull and is designed for high-capacity daily carry or travel. It comfortably holds a large laptop, charger, A4/letter files, a water bottle, a light jumper, wallet, phone, and small pouches. Capacity varies by how you pack; please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions of this piece.
Q: Will it fit a 15-inch or 16-inch laptop? A: Yes. The GM generally accommodates a 15-inch laptop with room for other essentials, and many slim 16-inch models will also fit. For protection, we recommend using a padded sleeve and not overloading the bag to preserve the vachetta leather straps.
Q: Does this item include the removable pouch? A: Yes. This specific piece includes a removable zipped pouch as listed in the product information. Louis Vuitton added a detachable pouch to updated Neverfull models in the mid‑2010s.
Q: What is the handle drop and is it comfortable on the shoulder? A: This piece has an approximate handle drop of 22 cm as listed in our product information. The Neverfull GM typically has a drop around 20–23 cm, designed to sit comfortably on the shoulder even over light layers.
Q: Can I use the Neverfull GM as an airline personal item or carry-on? A: Many travellers use the GM as their under‑seat personal item and it can work well when not overpacked. However, airline rules differ by carrier and route, so please check your airline’s current size limits before flying.
Q: What are the side laces for, and do they affect capacity? A: The side laces allow you to cinch the bag for a sleeker, more structured silhouette or release them for maximum capacity. Cinching mainly changes the profile; the open tote configuration offers the greatest usable space.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and vachetta leather? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water and mild soap if needed; avoid alcohol-based cleaners and harsh chemicals. Vachetta leather is untreated and sensitive to water, oils, and sunlight—handle with clean, dry hands, avoid rain, and store away from direct heat to encourage an even patina over time.
Q: What does the date code TJ1111 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used a letter‑and‑number date code system until around 2021. For 2007–2021 items, the two letters indicate the factory/country and the four digits indicate week and year. TJ1111 decodes to France, made in the 11th week of 2011.
Q: Is the Neverfull GM heavy to carry? A: The Monogram Neverfull is made from lightweight coated canvas with natural vachetta trim, so the bag itself is relatively light for its size. Using a laptop sleeve or organiser can add structure; avoid excessive weight to minimise strain on the straps.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Each item at A Retro Tale is examined by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes where applicable. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to share additional product information on request.
