Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Croisette?
A: Despite its compact footprint, it comfortably carries daily essentials: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, AirPods and a small cosmetics pouch. Slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve and a passport usually fit. Continental (long) wallets, small tablets and water bottles generally do not. Please refer to the Measurements on this page (approx. 22 × 17 × 7 cm) or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.

Q: Will my iPhone Pro/Max fit?
A: Yes—most Pro/Max phones fit. Very bulky cases can make the fit snug under the flap. For certainty, compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements provided or ask us to perform a quick fit test against this specific bag.

Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody?
A: The Croisette’s shoulder strap is detachable and adjustable for shoulder or crossbody wear. This item shows an approx. 56 cm strap drop and an approx. 6 cm top‑handle drop. On most wearers it sits comfortably as a crossbody; we’re happy to advise based on your height and preferred carry.

Q: How secure is the S‑lock closure and how do I operate it?
A: The S‑lock flap closure offers good day‑to‑day security. To open, press the clasp to release; to close, align the flap and press until it clicks. Avoid overfilling to keep the lock aligned, and try not to press the hardware against abrasive surfaces to minimise hairline scratches.

Q: What is the interior layout?
A: This piece features a red textile lining with one internal slip pocket and a single main compartment under the flap. Our listing photos show the exact configuration and storage options for this bag.

Q: What materials and hardware does this model use?
A: Typically Damier Ébène coated canvas with brown leather trim, gold‑tone hardware, a single top handle, a detachable/adjustable shoulder strap and a removable leather tassel. The listing for this item specifies these exact features.

Q: How should I care for Damier Ébène coated canvas, leather trim and hardware?
A: Coated canvas is durable—wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. The dark Ébène leather trim is treated but should still be kept away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight. Be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and protect hardware from rubbing during storage to minimise scratches.

Q: Can I remove the tassel or swap the strap?
A: Yes—the tassel is removable, and the strap detaches for alternate carries. Many owners swap with other lightweight LV straps; however, non‑LV or heavy hardware may mark the rings or stress the flap. We don’t recommend any modifications that require drilling or adhesives. Ask us if you’d like guidance for this specific piece.

Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how is dating handled?
A: You’ll find an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and the country of origin). Older LV pieces typically include a date code on a small leather tab or along an interior seam; from around 2021 LV transitioned to an embedded microchip instead of a visible code. Placement can vary—contact us for close‑up photos. This item is stamped Made in France.

Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate?
A: Included items are listed under “Accessories.” For this bag we note a dust bag, booklet and shoulder strap. If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date code/microchip. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
