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 does Louis Vuitton size 85 mean on this belt? A: Size 85 refers to the belt length measured to the centre hole and generally corresponds to around a 34 inch waist. Fit can vary depending on whether you wear it on the waist or lower on the hips, so comparing it with a belt you already own is the best guide.
Q: How wide is this belt, and will it work for everyday wear? A: This belt measures 3 cm in width, giving it a slimmer and more versatile profile than wider statement belts. It is well suited to everyday styling and will usually fit many standard trouser loops, though it is always worth checking your garment first.
Q: What materials and finish does this belt have? A: This piece features Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas with a beige leather lining and gold-tone hardware. The brown Monogram finish gives it the classic Louis Vuitton look, while the leather lining adds structure and comfort.
Q: Is Monogram canvas leather? A: The visible Monogram side is coated canvas rather than full leather, while this belt also has a leather lining. That combination is typical of many Louis Vuitton belts and offers a balance of durability, structure and the signature House finish.
Q: What is the condition of this vintage belt? A: The overall condition is very good, with light traces of use. The lining shows stains and discolouration, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: What is included with the belt? A: This item comes with a box and dust bag. For clarity, everything included with the purchase is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: What does the date code CA0132 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period indicate the place and time of production rather than acting as a unique serial number. CA indicates manufacture in Spain, and 0132 corresponds to the 3rd week of 2012.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Louis Vuitton belt like this? A: Wipe it gently with a soft cloth and avoid water, oils, perfume, chemicals and rough surfaces. Try not to overstretch the strap, and store it in its dust bag when not in use to help protect the canvas, leather lining and hardware.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed by experts using details such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps and date codes. A date code is helpful for consistency checks, but it is only one part of the overall authentication process.
