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 Alma PM? A: The Alma PM is a structured, medium-sized handbag that comfortably holds daily essentials. You can expect to fit a large smartphone, a continental wallet, a cosmetics pouch, keys, sunglasses in a case, and a compact tablet (such as an iPad or Kindle). Due to its tapered dome shape, bulky items like large water bottles or A4 documents may not fit flat. Please refer to the Measurements on this page or contact us for tailored fit advice.
Q: Will a laptop fit inside this bag? A: Generally, no. The Alma PM’s rounded corners and structured silhouette make it too small for most standard laptops (13-inch and above). A very small laptop or netbook might fit if positioned carefully, but it is not designed for this purpose. It is better suited for tablets and daily accessories.
Q: Does this bag come with a strap? Can I wear it crossbody? A: Classic Alma PM models from this era (such as this 2006 piece) are typically designed as hand-held or elbow-carry bags and do not feature D-rings for attaching a shoulder strap. The listing under “Accessories” notes that no accessories are included. Some owners attach aftermarket straps to the handle hardware, but this is not the original design.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a double-zip closure that runs around the sides, allowing for a wide opening while keeping contents secure. When zipped fully, the bag is very secure for city use.
Q: What material is this bag made of? A: This piece is crafted from Louis Vuitton’s Damier Ébène coated canvas, known for its durability and resistance to water and scratches. It features smooth dark brown leather trim (treated leather) and gold-tone hardware. The interior is lined with a durable red textile.
Q: How do I care for Damier Ébène canvas? A: Damier Ébène is low-maintenance and robust. Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. The smooth leather trim is treated and does not patina (darken) like natural Vachetta leather, but it can be prone to surface scratches, so avoid contact with abrasive surfaces. Store the bag upright in a breathable dust bag to maintain its structured shape.
Q: Does the bag stand up on its own? A: Yes, the Alma PM has a reinforced leather base and typically features four metal protective feet, allowing it to stand stable and upright when placed on flat surfaces.
Q: Where can I find the date code on this item? A: The date code is usually found stamped on a small leather tab inside the interior flat pocket. For this specific item, the code is FL0066, indicating it was manufactured in France in June 2006. We can provide close-up photos of the code upon request.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date codes, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and verify that the date code FL0066 corresponds to the correct factory and production period for this model.
Q: What accessories are included? A: This item is listed with “no accessories,” meaning it does not include the original dust bag, box, padlock, or keys. If an accessory is not explicitly mentioned in the description, it is not included.
