Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Batignolles Horizontal? A: With approximate measurements of 38 × 25 × 13 cm, it comfortably fits A4 papers, a 13-inch laptop, a tablet, a long wallet, a sunglasses case, a small water bottle and daily essentials. Capacity depends on how you pack, so please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: It is best suited to a 13-inch laptop and may fit some slim 14-inch models. A 15-inch laptop will usually be too tall for the bag, so we recommend comparing your device’s exact measurements with the bag before purchasing.
Q: Is it comfortable to carry on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Batignolles Horizontal was designed as an easy everyday shoulder tote, and this piece has an approximate strap drop of 26 cm. It should sit comfortably under the arm for most users, though the fit can feel a little closer when wearing a thick coat.
Q: How does the bag close? A: This model features a top hook closure, which keeps the opening gathered while still allowing easy access to your belongings. Many owners also use a pouch or organiser inside for extra structure and privacy.
Q: What pockets does it have inside? A: This bag has a brown canvas lining with one internal zipped pocket and one slip pocket, making it easy to separate smaller essentials such as keys, cards or a phone.
Q: What does the date code DU1005 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this era indicate where and when the bag was made. DU1005 corresponds to a piece made in France in October 2005. Please note that a date code is not a unique serial number on its own.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram coated canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe the coated canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid overfilling the bag so it keeps its shape. The untreated Vachetta leather will naturally darken and develop a honey-coloured patina over time. Keep it away from rain, oils, perfumes and harsh cleaners, and blot immediately with a light-coloured absorbent cloth if it gets wet.
Q: What condition should I expect from this item? A: This bag is in very good vintage condition. The Vachetta leather shows a light patina with some corner scuffing, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As with most vintage pieces, gentle signs of age are part of its character.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Everything that comes with the bag is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by specialists using details such as materials, stitching, hardware, date codes and brand markings. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell.
