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 Monogram Keepall Bandoulière 55? A: With approximate measurements of 55 x 30 x 25 cm, this is a spacious weekender that is generally suitable for clothing for a weekend away, shoes, toiletries and daily essentials. Louis Vuitton describes the Keepall 55 as roomy enough for up to a week’s wardrobe, depending on how you pack.
Q: Is the Keepall 55 suitable as cabin baggage? A: Usually, yes. Louis Vuitton classifies the Keepall Bandoulière 55 as cabin-friendly, and the 55 cm length is commonly within standard carry-on limits. That said, baggage policies vary between airlines, routes and aircraft, so it is always best to check your carrier’s current rules before travelling.
Q: What does Bandoulière mean on this model? A: Bandoulière indicates that the bag comes with a detachable shoulder strap in addition to the rolled top handles. On this particular item, the strap is adjustable and the handle drop is approximately 11 cm, giving you flexible carry options for travel or everyday use.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder or cross-body? A: Yes. The detachable strap allows shoulder carry, and Louis Vuitton also describes the Bandoulière 55 as suitable for casual cross-body wear. Because this is a larger travel bag, the fit and comfort of cross-body wear can vary depending on your height and how full the bag is packed.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: The included product information for this item lists a detachable shoulder strap, padlock and keys, luggage tag and poignet. Everything included with the bag is shown in the product information on this page.
Q: What does the date code MB0040 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes are production codes rather than unique serial numbers. Based on the pre-2007 Louis Vuitton date code format, MB0040 is consistent with production in France in April 2000. As with all vintage Louis Vuitton pieces, the date code is only one part of the authentication process.
Q: Is Monogram canvas leather? A: No. Louis Vuitton’s Monogram is a coated canvas with natural cowhide leather trim. That gives the bag the lightweight durability of canvas together with leather handles and trim that will soften and develop patina over time.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and leather trim? A: For coated canvas, Louis Vuitton recommends wiping gently with a soft damp cloth and a little mild soapy water if needed. Avoid oils, perfumes, alcohol-based products, leather lotions and harsh chemicals. The natural leather trim is untreated and can mark or darken with age, sunlight and moisture, so if it gets wet it should be blotted gently and allowed to dry naturally.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: According to this listing, the exterior and interior are both in excellent condition with light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As a vintage piece, minor signs of age and handling are normal and form part of its character.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed by in-house experts using detailed checks of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
