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: Is the Louis Vuitton Favorite MM in Damier Ebene still produced by the brand? A: The Damier Ebene canvas Favorite MM was discontinued around 2020 and is now sourced on the pre-loved market. Louis Vuitton later introduced a new Favorite in Monogram Empreinte leather with a similar silhouette.
Q: What typically fits inside this Favorite MM? A: With approximate measurements of 25 × 17 × 4 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, a long or compact wallet, keys, and a few small essentials (lipstick, hand sanitiser, compact mirror). If you prefer extra space, use a compact wallet. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece includes a detachable leather shoulder strap and a short chain. Typical drops for this model are around 52–55 cm for the leather strap (crossbody/shoulder) and about 17–19 cm for the chain (short shoulder/hand). Check the Measurements on this page for the exact drops of this item.
Q: Is the chain removable and can I carry it as a clutch? A: On this model the chain is usually removable on one end and can be tucked into the bag, allowing you to carry it as a clutch or use the chain as a wristlet.
Q: How secure is the magnetic flap closure? A: The flap uses a magnetic clasp. It is convenient and secure for typical day-to-day use but is not as sealed as a zip. For crowded settings, keep smaller items in the interior slip pocket and avoid overfilling to help the flap close cleanly.
Q: What does MM mean, and how does it compare to PM? A: MM stands for Moyen Modèle (medium). Compared with the smaller PM, the MM offers noticeably more capacity and fits larger items like a long wallet and bigger phones more comfortably.
Q: What does the date code DU0135 mean on this bag? A: DU indicates manufacture in France. For 2007–2020 codes, the first and third digits indicate the week and the second and fourth digits the year. DU0135 therefore corresponds to week 03 of 2015, made in France. Note that since 2021 Louis Vuitton has phased out date codes in favour of a concealed microchip; date codes are one helpful data point but not proof of authenticity on their own.
Q: How should I care for Damier Ebene coated canvas and the trim? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft cloth slightly dampened with mild soapy water; avoid solvents, alcohol-based products, oils, and prolonged sunlight or heat. Store lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to retain shape.
Q: Is the Damier Ebene trim high maintenance? A: Damier Ebene typically features dark, treated leather trim that is more resistant to water spots and colour change than untreated vachetta, making it relatively low-maintenance for daily wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information on this page. For this specific bag, the detachable shoulder strap is included. If you would like us to confirm any particular item, please contact us.
