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 Damier Ebene Naviglio Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32 x 25 x 13 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a compact umbrella, and a small water bottle, with room for a small tablet. It is better suited to everyday carry than to bulky work items.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody? A: The bag features a single adjustable strap with an approximate 40 cm drop on this piece. It is designed for comfortable shoulder wear and can also sit crossbody on many people, depending on height and preferred fit.
Q: How is the bag organised inside? A: The Naviglio is known for its practical layout. It has two outer compartments beneath the snap flaps, a central zipped compartment, and one internal flat pocket, which makes it easy to separate frequently used items from valuables.
Q: Is the closure secure? A: Yes. This design combines snap closures on the outer flaps with a zip closure through the centre compartment. Many owners like this because it offers added organisation and a more secure feel than an open-top bag.
Q: Is Damier Ebene canvas durable for everyday use? A: Yes. Damier Ebene coated canvas is known for being hard-wearing and relatively easy to maintain. It generally copes well with regular use and light moisture, while the structured shape makes it a practical choice for daily wear.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe the canvas and trim gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth if needed, and avoid harsh cleaners, oils, or home remedies. Do not overfill the bag, and store it in a breathable dust bag or felt in a ventilated space away from heat and direct sunlight when not in use.
Q: What does the date code TH1011 mean? A: This date code indicates that the bag was made in France in November 2001. As with all Louis Vuitton date codes, it helps show the place and time of production, but it should not be used as the only test of authenticity.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This item is listed in very good condition, with light traces of use on both the exterior and interior. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful vintage wear.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Everything that comes with the bag is noted in the product information, so if an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully reviewed for key authenticity markers such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and date code details. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell.
