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: Is the Keepall Bandoulière 55 generally cabin‑approved as carry‑on luggage? A: Yes. Louis Vuitton describes the Keepall 55 as a cabin‑friendly size for most airlines. Policies vary by carrier and aircraft, so please check your airline’s rules before travel.
Q: What typically fits inside a Keepall 55 for a weekend? A: The 55 is designed to hold a weekend’s wardrobe with ease—think several outfits, a pair of shoes, toiletries, and travel essentials. Efficient packers can often manage a full week. Using packing cubes helps maximise space and keep items organised.
Q: What are the measurements of this exact piece and how do they compare to the model’s typical size? A: This item is measured at approximately 55 × 29 × 25 cm (W × H × D) on our listing. The model is commonly referenced at about 55 × 31 × 24 cm. Minor variances occur due to measuring methods, soft construction, and use. Please rely on the measurements on this page for this specific piece.
Q: Does it come with a shoulder strap and can it be worn cross‑body? A: Yes. “Bandoulière” indicates it includes a detachable, adjustable strap for shoulder or cross‑body carry. Typical strap drop on this model ranges roughly from the high‑30s to around 50 cm, suiting most builds. Refer to our product information for the exact items included with this piece.
Q: Will the Keepall 55 fit under an aeroplane seat? A: It usually needs to go in the overhead bin. Travellers report that the 55 fits overhead on most mainline aircraft; under‑seat fit is uncommon due to its length. If bins are full, gate agents may request checking, so boarding early helps.
Q: How durable is Damier Graphite coated canvas and how should I care for it? A: Damier Graphite is a coated canvas known for being light, supple, and resilient. Wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid solvents, polishing agents, or conditioners. Keep away from prolonged heat/sunlight and from highly pigmented materials that may cause colour transfer. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape.
Q: Is the bag water‑resistant? A: The coated canvas offers good resistance to light moisture, but it is not fully waterproof. If it gets wet, gently wipe dry with a soft cloth and allow it to air‑dry away from heat sources.
Q: What does the date code DR2159 mean? A: DR indicates a French workshop. With the 2007–2021 format, the digits denote week and year, so 2‑1‑5‑9 translates to the 25th week of 2019, made in France. Note that Louis Vuitton moved from visible date codes to embedded microchips from around 2021; date codes are not unique serial numbers and are only one part of authentication.
Q: Is the Keepall 55 heavy when packed? A: The bag itself is relatively light and supple for its size, but like any large weekender it can feel heavy when fully packed. Using the shoulder strap and distributing weight with organisers helps comfort during carry.
Q: What is included with this item? A: For this specific piece, our product information lists a detachable shoulder strap, luggage tag, and handle fastener. If an item such as a padlock or dust bag is not listed there, it is not included.
