Perfect for weekend city strolls and coffee dates, this vintage Louis Vuitton Nomad Bucket PM in tan leather adds effortless polish. Its compact bucket silhouette slips comfortably over the shoulder with adjustable straps, keeping daily essentials close from brunch to gallery visits and relaxed dinners.
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 typically fits inside the Nomad Bucket PM? A: With approximate dimensions of 26 × 23 × 16 cm, it comfortably holds a long wallet, smartphone, sunglasses case, keys on the internal key clip, a small cosmetics pouch and a compact water bottle. An A5 diary or a small tablet (iPad mini size) can also fit, depending on case and how you pack. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and how can I carry it? A: Yes. It has dual adjustable flat shoulder straps with an approximate 25 cm drop. It is designed for shoulder carry rather than crossbody wear.
Q: Does this style have a closure or interior pockets? A: This vintage edition has an open top. Inside, there is a tonal Alcantara lining with an internal key clip for easy access to keys or a small pouch. Many owners use an insert or pouch to add extra organisation if needed.
Q: What is Nomade (Nomad) leather and how does it age? A: Nomade is a smooth, vegetable‑tanned leather similar in character to natural vachetta. It is intended to develop a rich patina, gradually deepening in colour. Because it is relatively untreated, it’s more sensitive to water, oils and surface marks than coated canvas—light wear and subtle variations are normal and contribute to its vintage charm.
Q: How should I care for this leather day to day? A: Keep it dry and avoid contact with liquids, hand sanitiser, lotions and alcohol‑based products. If it gets wet, blot gently with a clean, light‑coloured cloth and allow it to air dry naturally. Do not use harsh cleaners, oils or conditioners. Store stuffed (with acid‑free tissue) in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat, to encourage an even patina and help it keep its shape.
Q: Can I clean the lining and hardware at home? A: For the Alcantara (microfibre) lining, gently shake out debris and use a soft brush or lint roller for surface dust. For hardware, wipe with a dry, soft cloth only; avoid abrasive polishes to minimise additional scratching.
Q: What does the date code FL0022 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used a letter‑and‑number date code system in this era. The letters indicate factory/country, and the numbers indicate month and year. “FL” corresponds to France; the code “0022” follows the 1990–2006 format where the first and third digits show the month and the second and fourth digits the year—so this piece was made in February 2002 in France.
Q: Are any accessories included with this item? A: This listing specifies no accessories. Everything included is always stated under the Accessories section; if an item (e.g., dust bag) is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is rigorously inspected by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, leather, stitching, hardware, heat stamps and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
