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: Is the Keepall 45 generally accepted as carry-on luggage? A: Yes. At approximately 45 × 26 × 20 cm, the Keepall 45 is under the cabin size limits of most airlines and fits easily in overhead bins. Policies vary by carrier and how full the bag is, so please check your airline’s rules; when lightly packed, the 45 can sometimes fit under the seat as well.
Q: What can I typically fit inside a Keepall 45? A: It suits a 2–3 day getaway: several outfits, underwear, a pair of trainers, a toiletries bag, and small tech like a 13-inch laptop in a sleeve, chargers, and a book. Capacity depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: This is the classic handheld Keepall 45, designed to be carried by its dual rolled leather handles (approx. 10 cm drop). Only the Bandoulière versions include strap attachments and a detachable shoulder strap.
Q: What are the benefits of Epi leather on this model? A: Epi leather is a textured, structured leather introduced by Louis Vuitton in the 1980s. It is known for its durability, shape retention, and scratch resistance, making it a robust choice for travel. The red colour gives a bold, timeless look.
Q: How should I care for Epi leather? A: Wipe gently with a soft, light-coloured cloth and avoid soap or solvents. Keep away from oils, perfumes, hand sanitiser, and alcohol-based products, and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or heat. Store the bag loosely stuffed in its dust bag in a cool, dry place.
Q: Where is the date code and what does it mean? A: Many vintage Keepalls have a date code stamped on a small leather tab inside the bag; the format indicates where and when it was made. Louis Vuitton introduced microchips on newer items from 2021, but vintage pieces still have codes. The code for this item is not listed here—contact us if you’d like us to check and share it.
Q: Are padlock keys included and can I get replacements? A: Everything included is listed under product information. This piece includes a padlock; keys are only included if specifically stated. If you need replacement keys or servicing, Louis Vuitton’s repair service can assist directly.
Q: Does this specific Epi Keepall 45 have an exterior pocket? A: Yes. This item features one external slip pocket, ideal for slim essentials you need quick access to (such as travel documents). Avoid placing bulky or heavy items in this pocket to preserve the bag’s lines.
Q: Any packing tips to maintain the bag’s shape during travel? A: Don’t overfill; use pouches or packing cubes to organise items and distribute weight evenly. For storage after your trip, remove contents, stuff lightly with acid-free tissue, and keep it in the dust bag to maintain structure and colour.
