Louis Vuitton Empreinte Nano Speedy Bandoulière Bag
This Louis Vuitton Nano Speedy in black Monogram Empreinte leather with gold-toned hardware is the perfect companion for a sleek lunch date or an evening in the city. In excellent condition, it offers dual rolled top handles, a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap, black microfibre lining and a secure top zip closure—bringing refined LV polish to any look.
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 Empreinte Nano Speedy? A: Despite its petite size, it accommodates daily essentials such as a large smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, AirPods, lipstick and a small key pouch. Slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve may fit, but a rigid case is usually too bulky. With approximate dimensions of 17 × 11 × 7.5 cm for this piece, a 500 ml bottle will not sit upright. If you’d like a tailored fit check for a specific item, just ask and we’ll test this exact bag for you.
Q: Will an iPhone Pro/Pro Max fit? A: Most large phones fit inside; Pro/Max models typically fit best without a bulky case and may be snug at the zip opening. Fit can vary by case thickness and angle of entry. We’re happy to test your exact model on request.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and is the strap adjustable? A: Yes. This piece includes a detachable, adjustable leather shoulder strap as well as dual rolled top handles. On this bag, the strap drop is approximately 46 cm and the handle drop is about 7 cm (see Measurements). It wears comfortably on the shoulder or as a high crossbody for many wearers.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: The Nano Speedy has a top zip closure for everyday security and a microfibre‑lined interior. Most examples are a single open compartment; some editions include a small flat pocket. Our listing photos show the exact configuration of this piece.
Q: What is Monogram Empreinte leather and how does it wear? A: Monogram Empreinte is embossed calfskin known for being supple yet durable. It softens slightly with use while maintaining structure, and the embossing remains defined with proper care. Compared with canvas, Empreinte leather adds a touch of weight and can feel slightly firmer at first, then relaxes over time.
Q: How should I care for Empreinte leather and the hardware? A: Keep the bag away from heavy rain and oils; if lightly damp, blot (don’t rub) with a soft cloth and allow to air‑dry. Wipe the leather with a clean, dry, non‑abrasive cloth; condition sparingly with a high‑quality neutral product only after testing on a discreet area. Store upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and pad or tuck the strap to prevent impressions. Avoid alcohol‑based cleaners on leather or hardware to minimise dulling and scratches.
Q: What’s the difference between the Empreinte Nano Speedy and the canvas version? A: Recent Empreinte Nano Speedy bags feature a detachable, adjustable leather strap, whereas earlier canvas Nanos were known for a fixed, non‑removable strap; newer canvas releases have since adopted a removable/adjustable strap. Empreinte leather models can feel a touch heavier and marginally tighter at the zip opening due to leather thickness, but offer a luxurious, softly structured look.
Q: Does the Nano Speedy have metal feet? A: No—there are no base studs. We recommend setting the bag on clean, non‑abrasive surfaces and using a bag base insert if you’d like to add support (ensure any insert is smooth and colourfast).
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes, and do newer LV bags still have date codes? A: You’ll find an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and the country of origin). From around March 2021, Louis Vuitton began phasing out visible date codes in favour of an embedded NFC microchip, so many recent bags have no stamped date code. The chip’s data is encrypted and not viewable via standard smartphone apps. We can help you verify what’s present on this specific bag.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: For this listing we include the items shown under “Accessories”: dust bag, receipt and a detachable shoulder strap. If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date code/microchip era details and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
