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 Louis Vuitton Antigua Cabas GM Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 40 x 42 x 10 cm, this tote is suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a cosmetics pouch, a water bottle and documents. It may also fit some compact laptops or tablets, but we recommend comparing your item with the measurements on this page for the best guide.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. The dual flat handles have an approximate drop of 24 cm, which makes the bag comfortable for shoulder carry for many wearers.
Q: Does it close securely, and does it have any internal pockets? A: Yes. This bag has a top zip closure, and the striped fabric lining includes one internal pocket to help organise smaller essentials.
Q: Does this bag come with a detachable shoulder strap? A: No. This style is designed with dual flat shoulder handles, and no separate strap is listed in the product information.
Q: What does the date code SP0026 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this era show the production location and date. SP denotes France, and SP0026 is generally read as February 2006. A date code is helpful for dating a bag, but it is not a unique serial number and should not be relied on as the sole proof of authenticity.

Q: What is included with this item? A: This item includes a name tag. Everything included is listed in the product information.
Q: What condition is the bag in? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The exterior and interior show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for the canvas on this bag? A: Clean the canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth when needed, and avoid oils, alcohol-based products, leather lotions, harsh cleaners and rough surfaces. Because this is a vintage piece, gentle use will help preserve the fabric and trim. ([uk.louisvuitton.com](https://uk.louisvuitton.com/eng-gb/faq/products/how-do-i-take-care-of-my-canvas-product))
Q: Is this a good everyday tote? A: Yes. The roomy GM format, shoulder-carry handles, zip top and internal pocket make it a practical vintage option for daily use, work essentials or light travel.
