This vintage Christian Louboutin shoulder bag in burgundy logo-print suede with smooth leather trim and gold-tone hardware offers a striking yet elegant finish. In very good condition, it is ideal for lunch dates, gallery visits or evening plans, adding distinctive designer character to both tailored daywear and refined after-dark looks.
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 this Christian Louboutin shoulder bag? A: With measurements of approximately 30.5 x 19 x 5 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder or slim wallet, keys, sunglasses and a few small cosmetics. Because the bag is quite slim, it is better for flatter items than bulky pouches or a tablet.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Probably not. This piece is described as a shoulder bag with a single flat strap, and the listed strap drop is 23 cm, which is usually more suitable for shoulder carry than crossbody wear. Fit can vary slightly depending on height and outerwear.
Q: What materials and details does this bag have? A: This vintage style features red logo-print suede with smooth leather trim, gold-tone hardware, a flap closure and red leather lining with one internal zip pocket.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label states Italy.
Q: What product information is included with this item? A: The product information for this item notes a dust bag. If any original box or branded cards are not listed separately, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: It is listed in Very Good condition. There are light traces of use, minor scratches and marks on the leather trim, a slightly worn interior and shiny hardware with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for the suede and leather trim? A: Keep the bag away from direct light, heat, rain and humidity, and store it in its dust bag when not in use. For suede, use a suede brush gently in one direction to lift surface marks and preserve the nap, and avoid using water. For anything beyond light surface care, it is best to consult a leather-care specialist.
Q: Should I expect colour transfer or light scuffing on suede? A: Suede is naturally more delicate than smooth leather, so light scuffing or colour transfer can happen over time, especially against dark clothing or damp surfaces. Gentle brushing after wear and careful storage can help reduce this.
Q: How do you authenticate a pre-owned Christian Louboutin bag? A: At A Retro Tale, pre-owned items are checked by specialists using the construction, materials, lining, logo details, hardware and overall craftsmanship. Packaging such as a dust bag can be helpful, but it should never be the only basis for authentication.
