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 typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Damier Illovo MM Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 22 x 24 x 10 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, small cosmetics and similar items. It is not a large tote, so a laptop or roomy A4 documents would be too much for this size.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. The single shoulder strap has an approximate drop of 24 cm, which is usually comfortable for shoulder carry. It is not designed as a cross-body style.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes. This Illovo MM has a top zip closure, which helps keep your belongings more secure than an open-top shoulder bag.
Q: What is inside the bag? A: The interior is lined in red canvas and includes one internal pocket for organising smaller essentials.
Q: Is Damier Ebene a good material for everyday use? A: Yes. Damier Ebene coated canvas is widely appreciated for being durable, structured and relatively low-maintenance, making it a practical choice for regular use when cared for properly.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: For routine care, gently wipe the coated canvas with a soft damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, overfilling, prolonged heat and humidity. When not in use, store it lightly stuffed in its dust bag in a ventilated area to help maintain its shape.
Q: What does the date code AR0016 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period indicate the place and time of production rather than acting as a unique serial number. AR denotes France, and 0016 corresponds to the 1st week of 2006. As with all pre-owned Louis Vuitton pieces, the date code should be assessed alongside materials, construction and hardware.
Q: Is this considered a vintage Louis Vuitton bag? A: Yes. This piece is listed as vintage, and the 2006 production date places it firmly within the pre-owned vintage era.
Q: What condition is this specific bag in? A: According to this listing, the exterior, interior and overall condition are all rated Very Good, with light traces of use. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches consistent with gentle wear.
Q: What is included with the bag? A: This item includes a dust bag. If any other included items are not listed on the product page, they should not be assumed to be included.
