Good Condition
Perfect for weekday commutes and weekend city breaks, this vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Sac Bosphore 2‑way bag lends refined, everyday versatility. Its roomy profile and handy pockets keep travel documents, tech and daily essentials neatly organised, making it an effortless choice from office to café to airport lounge.
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 Sac Bosphore 2way bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 35 × 26 × 8 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a 13-inch laptop or tablet (in a slim sleeve), a wallet, phone, keys, and small daily essentials. The external zipped pocket is handy for items you need quick access to, like travel cards or a phone.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody as well as by hand? A: Yes. It is a true 2-way style with dual top handles for handheld use and an adjustable, detachable shoulder strap for on-shoulder or crossbody wear. Adjust the strap to your preferred drop for comfort across different heights.
Q: Is this style still available at Louis Vuitton boutiques? A: The Bosphore line is a past-season design and is typically found on the pre‑owned market rather than in current Louis Vuitton collections, which makes well-kept examples like this one sought after by vintage lovers.
Q: What does the date code CA0056 indicate? A: Under Louis Vuitton’s date code format used up to 2006, CA0056 corresponds to production in May 2006. Please note that date codes are not unique serial numbers and, by themselves, do not authenticate an item. Every piece at A Retro Tale is professionally authenticated using a multi‑point inspection before listing.
Q: Is the Monogram canvas waterproof? A: Louis Vuitton’s Monogram is a coated canvas that is durable and highly water‑resistant, but it is not fully waterproof. Avoid soaking. The natural Vachetta leather trim is sensitive to moisture and may darken or spot if wet.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather and patina? A: Keep the leather away from rain and liquids, handle with clean hands, and store out of direct sunlight to allow an even patina. For routine care, gently wipe with a soft, slightly dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaners or oils. For watermarks or deeper cleaning, consult a leather care professional experienced with Vachetta.
Q: What pockets and organisation does it have? A: The top zip opens to a brown textile-lined interior with two slip pockets and a D‑ring for keys. Externally, there is one vertical zipped pocket for easy access items.
Q: Is it suitable as a work or commute bag? A: Yes. Its slim, structured profile, zipped main compartment, interior organisation, and crossbody option make it practical for commuting with documents, a tablet or 13-inch laptop, and daily essentials.
Q: Are any accessories included with this item? A: No accessories are included. Everything supplied is always listed under Accessories on this page; if an item like a dust bag or padlock is not listed, it is not included.
Q: What condition notes should I be aware of? A: External condition is good with a visible Vachetta patina, darkening, and watermarks. The interior lining shows some stains. Hardware has discolouration and scratches. Please review the photos and description for full details.
