Designed for the polished commute, this vintage Louis Vuitton Epi laptop case in black carries a 16-inch device to meetings and flights with understated refinement. The zip closure and dark grey microfibre interior, with a slip pocket for documents, keep essentials neatly in place, while silver-tone accents lend a discreet finish. A smart choice for the office, conferences, or client visits.
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: Will my 16-inch laptop fit in this case? A: The case measures approximately 35 × 25 × 1.5 cm and is designed for 16-inch devices. Most 16-inch laptops, including the MacBook Pro 16 (about 35.57 × 24.81 × 1.68 cm), will fit as a snug, slim profile. If you use a hard shell or extra sleeve, compare the combined dimensions to the measurements to ensure an easy zip closure.
Q: How protective is this sleeve compared with a padded laptop bag? A: It offers light, everyday protection against scratches and minor bumps thanks to its structured Epi leather and soft microfibre lining. It is not a drop- or shock‑proof case; add a padded inner sleeve if you require impact protection.
Q: Is Epi leather water-resistant? A: Epi leather is known for being durable and resistant to light moisture, but it is not fully waterproof. If it gets wet, gently blot with a clean, absorbent cloth and allow it to air dry away from heat sources.
Q: How should I care for the leather and lining? A: Wipe the exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid solvents, oils, soaps, or leather conditioners. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight or heat. For the microfibre lining, use a lint roller or a clean, soft brush to remove dust and debris.
Q: Will a charger or mouse fit inside? A: The slim profile and single internal slip pocket are best for flat items such as documents, a cable, or a slim power adapter. Bulky power bricks or a mouse may overfill the sleeve; consider carrying those separately.
Q: Could the zip scratch my laptop? A: The zip sits close to the opening. Place the laptop fully inside and centred before closing, and zip slowly to avoid contact. If you prefer extra caution, use a thin neoprene sleeve around the device before placing it in the case.
Q: What does the code TY3240 refer to? A: Louis Vuitton used stamped date codes for many items to indicate production location and time period; newer pieces from around March 2021 onwards use an embedded microchip instead of a visible code. A date code alone does not confirm authenticity—our team already authenticates each piece using multiple criteria.
Q: Where was this item made? A: The origin label states France. Louis Vuitton leather goods may also be produced in Spain, Italy, or the United States depending on the model and production batch.
Q: Will A4 documents or a tablet fit? A: Yes. A4 papers (21 × 29.7 cm) and most tablets fit comfortably within the 35 × 25 cm footprint.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. This piece is sold without additional items.
