Whether commuting to the office, meeting clients or travelling through airports, this vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram laptop case carries your 17-inch device with timeless poise. Crafted in coated canvas with a secure zip, it slips into a briefcase or tote and elevates any work day or business trip.
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 this case fit a 17‑inch laptop? A: It is the 17‑inch size and generally fits many slim 17‑inch class devices. The internal space is approximately aligned with the Measurements shown (about 38 cm W x 28 cm H x 1 cm D). Very wide gaming laptops or devices in bulky protective cases can be a tight fit—please compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements or ask us for a quick fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will a 16‑inch MacBook Pro or a 15‑inch laptop fit? A: Yes—most 16‑inch MacBook Pro and 15‑inch laptops fit comfortably due to their slimmer profiles. Very thick cases may make the fit snug. For certainty, compare your device’s measurements with those listed or contact us for a tailored fit test.
Q: Can I use it with a hard case or an additional sleeve on my laptop? A: Slim snap‑on shells usually work; bulky rugged cases may not. Because the case itself is a refined, low‑profile sleeve, using an extra padded insert can reduce capacity. If you need drop or shock protection, we recommend a thin felt sleeve inside the case rather than a chunky protector—feel free to ask us to assess this specific piece with your setup.
Q: Does it hold a charger, mouse or notebook as well? A: This is a slim laptop case (listed depth approx 1 cm) with one main compartment, so it’s best for the device itself and flat papers. Bulky chargers and mice are better carried separately in a pouch or your tote/briefcase.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: It features a zip closure for everyday security. Inside you’ll find a brown cross‑grain leather lining and one main compartment without additional pockets. Our listing photos show the exact configuration of this piece.
Q: Does it have a handle or strap? Can I carry it crossbody? A: This piece includes a handle (we list approximately a 12 cm handle measurement) for hand carry or slipping into a larger bag. It does not include a shoulder or crossbody strap. If any measurement is missing, just ask and we’ll confirm for you.
Q: What materials and hardware does this case have, and where is it made? A: Monogram coated canvas exterior, brass hardware and a brown cross‑grain leather lining, with a zip closure. This vintage piece is stamped Made in France. Our photos and description show the exact finish and details, including typical vintage wear noted in the listing.
Q: How should I care for the coated canvas, leather lining and hardware? A: Keep away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; use a high‑quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly on smooth leather areas and test first on a discreet spot. Store the case flat or lightly padded in a breathable dust bag. To minimise hardware marks, avoid abrasive surfaces and protect the zip pull when placing the laptop in/out.
Q: Could the zip or hardware scratch my laptop? A: Insert and remove the laptop with the zip fully open and the case supported so the device stays centred. If you’re concerned, use a slim felt sleeve or a microfiber cloth around the device to prevent contact with the zip teeth and pulls.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how do you authenticate? What accessories are included? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton pieces feature an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and country of origin). Older items typically include a date code with factory letters (such as “TH”) and numbers; more recent pieces may use an embedded microchip instead. Placement and format vary—ask us for close‑ups of this specific case (we note the code in the listing). Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts. Included items are listed under “Accessories”; this listing notes no accessories. If something isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to contact us to confirm.
