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 Sac Plat Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 38 x 35 x 8 cm, it comfortably fits A4 documents, a tablet, a wallet, a pouch, and other daily essentials. It can also suit many slim 13-inch laptops, but we recommend comparing your device to the Measurements listed on this page for the best fit.
Q: Is this Sac Plat a good choice for work or everyday use? A: Yes. The Sac Plat is known for its tall, structured silhouette and slim profile, which make it especially practical for documents, light commuting, and polished everyday use.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: This vintage version is best carried by hand or in the crook of the arm. The dual rolled handles have an approximate drop of 11 cm, so shoulder carry will be limited for most people.
Q: Does this bag have a zip closure? A: No. This Sac Plat style is typically an open-top tote, which makes it easy to access your belongings. If you prefer extra security, a slim zip pouch or organiser inside can be a helpful addition.
Q: Why are the handles darker than the canvas? A: That is normal for Louis Vuitton's natural Vachetta leather. Over time it develops a deeper patina and may show darkening from handling, sunlight, and age. On this piece, the patina and handle darkening are already noted in the condition description.
Q: What does the date code MI1002 mean? A: The date code MI1002 is consistent with a Louis Vuitton piece made in France in October 2002. As with all vintage Louis Vuitton items, the date code helps indicate age and production, but authentication should always consider the bag as a whole.
Q: What condition should I expect from this bag? A: Overall, it is listed in very good vintage condition. The exterior shows visible patina and darkening on the handles, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Does this item come with any additional items? A: No. The product information states that no additional items are included, so this listing is for the bag only unless otherwise noted.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Keep it away from rain, oils, perfume, and alcohol-based products such as hand sanitiser. Wipe the canvas gently with a soft cloth, avoid overfilling it, and store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight and heat.
Q: How is authenticity assessed for this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in-house experts using multi-point checks that consider materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and date-code details. This helps ensure the item is assessed as a complete piece rather than by one marker alone.
