Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: This vintage Petit Noé is designed with a single adjustable shoulder strap and is generally best suited to shoulder carry. Based on the strap measurement provided, it is not typically considered a dedicated crossbody fit for most wearers.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features the classic Noé drawstring closure, which helps keep belongings gathered and covered while preserving the iconic bucket shape. It is practical for everyday use and offers quick access to your essentials.
Q: What is special about Epi leather? A: Epi leather is one of Louis Vuitton’s most recognisable leather finishes, known for its textured, dyed-through surface and structured feel. It is especially appreciated for its durability, resistance to everyday wear and timeless vintage appeal.
Q: What does the date code AR0985 mean? A: The date code indicates production in France, and this code format is generally read as September 1985. As with all Louis Vuitton pieces, the date code shows when and where the item was made, but it is not a unique serial number.
Q: Is this bag vintage? A: Yes. This is a vintage Louis Vuitton model, and both the Epi leather line and the Noé design are longstanding house signatures. Its vintage character is part of the appeal, especially for collectors looking for authentic older Louis Vuitton bags.
Q: What is the condition of this particular bag? A: This item is listed in very good condition. It shows light traces of use, including some scuffing at the corners, small marks on the strap, light wear inside and light scratches to the hardware.

Q: Does this item come with anything extra? A: No. According to the product information, this bag comes with no additional inclusions.
Q: How should I care for vintage Epi leather? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils or alcohol-based products. Store it away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity, and keep it loosely filled when not in use to help maintain its shape. As this bag has a vintage Alcantara lining, it is also best to avoid overfilling or rubbing the interior with abrasive items.
