FAQ
Q: When was the Louis Vuitton Tulum GM released, and is it discontinued? A: The Tulum GM was introduced around the mid-2000s (circa 2006) and has since been discontinued. It is now available primarily on the pre-owned market.
Q: What are the measurements of this bag and what typically fits inside? A: This example measures approximately 35 × 27 × 9 cm. It comfortably holds daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, cosmetics pouch, small water bottle, and an A5 notebook or tablet. Slim A4 documents may fit with a gentle curve. Very slim 13-inch laptops can sometimes fit, but the curved zip opening, lack of padding, and soft structure mean it is not ideal for regular laptop carry—please compare with your device dimensions.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and can it be worn crossbody? A: Yes. The single strap is adjustable, designed primarily for shoulder wear, and some owners find it long enough for a short crossbody depending on height and strap setting.
Q: What closures and pockets does the Tulum GM have? A: It features a top zip main compartment and a front flap pocket secured by a turn-lock. Inside the main compartment there are slip pockets for small items.
Q: What materials is it made from, and how do they wear in everyday use? A: The body is Louis Vuitton’s Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone hardware. The canvas is hard-wearing and generally water-resistant, while the untreated Vachetta darkens to a honey patina over time and is sensitive to water and oils. Light hairline scratches can appear on the hardware with use.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather and canvas? A: Handle Vachetta with clean, dry hands and avoid rain; if it gets wet, blot gently with a light, lint-free cloth. Do not use harsh cleaners or oils. For the canvas, wipe with a soft slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Store stuffed to maintain shape, in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: What does the date code MB4038 mean on this piece? A: MB indicates manufacture in France. For four-digit codes used in this period, the 1st and 3rd digits show the week and the 2nd and 4th digits show the year. MB4038 corresponds to the 43rd week of 2008 in France.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, a dust bag is included.
Q: What are the notable signs of wear on this specific bag? A: It is in very good pre-owned condition. The Vachetta shows a visible patina with some watermarks and scuffing on the strap and trim; the lining has some stains; and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos for a close look.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item is vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks across materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share further product information on request.
