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 bags will this Louis Vuitton shoulder strap fit? A: It is best suited to bags with two attachment points and hardware that can accommodate lobster clasps. Because Louis Vuitton ring sizes and clasp openings vary by model, we recommend comparing your bag’s hardware and the measurements on this page before purchase.
Q: Is 110 cm long enough for crossbody wear? A: This strap measures 110 cm in total length. For many buyers that works well for shoulder wear, while crossbody fit will depend on your height, the size of the bag, and where the attachment points sit.
Q: Is the strap adjustable? A: No adjustment is mentioned in the product information. Unless otherwise stated, this piece should be treated as a fixed-length vintage strap.
Q: What is the strap made from? A: The product information lists brown leather, brass hardware, and lobster clasp closures.
Q: What condition is it in? A: It is rated Very Good. The condition notes mention light traces of use, a few water marks, and scratches and discolouration to the hardware.
Q: Are any additional items included? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Please rely on the product information for exactly what is supplied.
Q: How should I care for the leather? A: Keep it away from prolonged moisture, direct heat, perfumes, creams, and harsh cleaning products. If it gets wet, blot it gently with a soft light-coloured cloth, and for light surface dirt use only a soft damp cloth.
Q: Will the leather change over time? A: Louis Vuitton notes that natural leather can soften and develop a deeper patina with age and use. This is part of the character of vintage pieces, but extra exposure to water and oils should still be avoided.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Louis Vuitton strap? A: A Retro Tale checks every item before sale. For vintage straps, authentication focuses on the quality of the leather, construction, hardware, finish, and the overall consistency of the piece.
