Louis Vuitton Monogram Sac Plat Tote Bag

Q: What typically fits inside this Louis Vuitton Sac Plat Tote Bag?
A: With approximate measurements of 38 x 36 x 9 cm, this bag is well suited to everyday essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, a cosmetic pouch, A4 documents, and a tablet or slim 13-inch laptop. Capacity can vary depending on how bulky your items are, so we recommend checking the measurements on this page against anything you plan to carry regularly.

Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder?
A: This vintage Sac Plat is primarily designed as a handheld tote with dual top handles. As the handle drop is approximately 14 cm and no shoulder strap is listed for this item, most customers will find it best carried by hand or in the crook of the arm rather than comfortably over the shoulder.

Q: Does the bag have a zip or other top closure?
A: No, this model features an open top. That makes it easy to access your belongings quickly, but if you prefer extra security or organisation, a slim pouch or organiser inside can be especially useful.

Q: Is the Sac Plat a good everyday or work bag?
A: Yes. The Sac Plat is known for its flat, structured shape, which makes it especially practical for papers, notebooks, and daily essentials. Although it has a slim profile, it is often considered surprisingly roomy and works well as a smart city or work tote.

Q: Is the leather patina normal on this bag?
A: Yes. Louis Vuitton Vachetta leather is a natural untreated leather that darkens and develops patina over time. On this piece, the leather shows visible patina along with minor marks and scuffing, which is typical of a vintage bag and part of its aged character.

Q: What condition should I expect from this specific item?
A: The exterior is in good condition overall, with visible patina to the leather and minor marks and scuffing. The interior is also in good condition, with marks and some peeling noted. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with any vintage piece, we recommend reviewing all product images carefully for the clearest impression of wear.

Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and leather trim?
A: The coated canvas can be wiped gently with a soft damp cloth, using a little mild soapy water if needed. Avoid harsh cleaners, perfume, oils, alcohol-based products, and home remedies on both the canvas and leather. The Vachetta leather should be protected from rain, heavy moisture, and rubbing, and the bag is best stored stuffed lightly to help maintain its shape.

Q: What is included with the bag?
A: No additional items are listed in the product information for this piece. If a dust bag, box, strap, lock, or other extras are not mentioned there, they should not be expected with the purchase.
