Perfect for weekend city walks, brunch dates or a smart-casual evening, the vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Thames PM sits comfortably under the shoulder, balancing effortless style with everyday practicality. A polished choice for travel days and commuting alike, it keeps essentials close and secure while adding signature LV flair to any look.
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 are the dimensions and how does it wear on the body? A: This Thames PM measures approximately 33 × 19 × 8 cm. It has a single adjustable flat shoulder strap; on this specific piece the drop is about 26 cm on the current setting. The curved silhouette sits neatly under the arm and is designed primarily as a shoulder bag.
Q: What typically fits inside the Thames PM? A: Daily essentials such as a long wallet, smartphone, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, card holder and slim sunglasses case. A compact tablet (mini size) may fit snugly; it is not intended for A4 documents or full‑size tablets. For best results, compare your items to the measurements above.
Q: Can this be worn crossbody? A: The Thames PM is intended as a shoulder bag. While the strap is adjustable, most find the drop too short for a comfortable crossbody fit. If crossbody wear is essential, consider LV styles designed for that purpose.
Q: Is the Thames PM still in production? A: No. The Thames line has been discontinued and is now available only on the pre‑owned market, which is why it is considered a sought‑after vintage style.
Q: What does the date code SD0110 mean on this bag? A: SD indicates production in France. Under Louis Vuitton’s 2007–2020 format, the 1st and 3rd digits show the week and the 2nd and 4th digits show the year, so SD0110 corresponds to week 01 of 2010. Note that from 2021 Louis Vuitton began phasing out date codes in favour of internal microchips; a date code alone is not proof of authenticity.
Q: What are the key materials and features? A: Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim, gold‑tone hardware, a front Inventeur nameplate, top zip closure and a brown textile lining with two internal slip pockets for small items.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather and canvas? A: Vachetta is untreated and will develop a natural patina. Avoid water, oils and alcohol‑based products; if it gets damp, blot gently and allow to air dry away from heat. Clean lightly with a soft, slightly damp cloth and use a dedicated, mild leather care product sparingly. The coated canvas can be wiped with a soft cloth; store the bag stuffed to hold its shape and away from direct sunlight.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information on this page. For this listing, it is the bag itself unless otherwise stated.
Q: How does the PM size compare to the GM? A: The PM is the more compact version suited to daily essentials, whereas the GM is noticeably larger with greater capacity. Both share the same curved, shoulder‑carried silhouette, but the GM accommodates more items such as a tablet or small notebook.
