Delivery & Returns
Q: What usually fits inside the Louis Vuitton Vernis Wilshire PM Tote? A: With measurements of approximately 32 x 18 x 11 cm, it comfortably holds daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and other compact items. It is best suited to light everyday use rather than larger items like a laptop or most tablets.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: The Wilshire PM is primarily designed as a handheld or crook-of-arm tote. With a handle drop of about 12 cm, some wearers may be able to tuck it under the arm when wearing light layers, but it is not generally considered a true shoulder bag.
Q: Does it close with a zip? A: No. The Wilshire PM typically has an open top with a clasp-style closure and one internal zip pocket, so valuables can be kept in the zipped compartment while the main section stays easy to access.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap or any extra items? A: No shoulder strap is included, and this particular item is listed with no additional items.
Q: Is Vernis leather durable enough for regular use? A: Vernis leather is structured and glossy, but it can show scuffs, white marks and surface wear more readily than some other Louis Vuitton materials. It can also be more sensitive to colour transfer and prolonged sun exposure. This specific bag is already noted as having visible scuffing and white marks.
Q: How should I care for Vernis leather? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils or alcohol-based products. Keep it away from direct sunlight, humidity, dark denim, magazines and other leathers that may transfer colour. Store it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag or cotton pillowcase to help maintain its shape.
Q: What does it mean if the serial or date code is illegible? A: On older Louis Vuitton bags, the date code can fade or become difficult to read with wear, age or where it is placed inside the bag. An illegible code does not automatically mean a piece is inauthentic, as authentication also relies on the materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and overall construction. For this item, the serial number is listed as illegible.
Q: Is the Wilshire PM a good everyday size? A: Yes, if you prefer a compact structured tote. It is well suited to daily essentials, lunches, city errands and smart day-to-evening use. If you need to carry bulkier items or tech, a larger tote may be a better choice.
