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: Which Louis Vuitton bags will this strap fit? A: It attaches to bags that have dedicated side D-rings for straps, such as Speedy Bandoulière and many Alma sizes. Classic handheld styles without exterior D-rings are not designed for add-on straps. If you are unsure, look for two metal D-rings on the sides of your bag or contact us for guidance.
Q: Is 80 cm adjustable long enough for crossbody wear? A: This strap is primarily a shoulder length. At 80 cm (adjustable), most users will find it best for shoulder carry; many crossbody fits require a longer strap depending on height and how high you prefer the bag to sit. If in doubt, measure a strap you already wear comfortably across the body.
Q: Will this work on a Neverfull or classic Speedy without D-rings? A: These models are not designed with external D-rings for a shoulder/crossbody strap. Some third-party conversions exist, but attaching a strap to cinch tabs or handle bases can stress the hardware and is not recommended. For safe use, only clip to purpose-made D-rings.
Q: How do I attach it securely? A: Use the dual swivel clasps to clip onto the bag’s strap D-rings. Ensure the clasps are fully closed, the buckle faces outwards, and the strap lies flat without twists before wear. Avoid clipping to rolled handles or decorative rings not intended to bear weight.
Q: What is it made from, and how wide is it? A: Monogram coated canvas with gold-tone hardware and dual clasps. The strap is approximately 2 cm wide, offering comfortable weight distribution on the shoulder.
Q: Does this strap have a date code or microchip? A: Louis Vuitton began phasing out stamped date codes in 2021 in favour of embedded microchips. Older straps may have a date code; newer ones may not. At A Retro Tale, authenticity is determined by a comprehensive expert inspection rather than codes alone.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and hardware? A: Wipe canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth; a touch of mild soap can be used for stubborn marks. Avoid alcohol-based products, solvents, oils and abrasive cleaners. Dry thoroughly and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Buff hardware gently with a dry, lint-free cloth and avoid contact with perfumes or hand sanitiser to minimise tarnish.
Q: Will the clasps fit non‑LV bags? A: Yes, provided your bag has compatible attachment rings that the clasps can pass through. Ring sizes vary by brand; measuring the internal diameter and checking against the clasp opening is the safest way to confirm fit.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing includes a box. Unless stated otherwise on this page, additional accessories (such as a dust bag) are not included.
Q: Is it guaranteed authentic, and do you provide an authenticity card? A: Yes—every item we sell is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts. Louis Vuitton does not issue authenticity cards; instead, we provide our own guarantee and documentation upon request.
