Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Monogram Empreinte Artsy MM? A: With approximate measurements of 48 x 32 x 22 cm, this is a roomy everyday hobo. It can usually hold a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, make-up pouch, an A5 notebook and a small tablet, with room for a light cardigan or similar extras. Please use the Measurements on this page as the best guide for your own daily essentials.
Q: How is the Artsy MM designed to be carried? A: This bag has a single braided leather shoulder strap with an approximate 15 cm drop. It is designed to sit on the shoulder or be carried in the crook of the arm rather than worn crossbody.
Q: Does this bag close fully? A: No. This version has an open top, so it does not fasten fully with a zip. It does, however, have multiple internal pockets in the striped canvas lining to help keep smaller items organised.
Q: Is Monogram Empreinte leather durable for daily use? A: Monogram Empreinte is a supple embossed leather known for combining a soft feel with good everyday practicality. Many owners find it more carefree than lighter untreated leather trims, but it should still be protected from excess moisture, rough surfaces and prolonged direct sunlight.
Q: Is the Artsy MM considered heavy? A: Many owners find the Empreinte Artsy heavier than canvas versions because it is a large all-leather bag. If you prefer roomy shoulder bags it can be very comfortable, but if you usually carry only a few essentials or prefer very lightweight bags, the weight is worth bearing in mind.
Q: Does the shoulder strap soften over time? A: In owner discussions, the Artsy's braided handle is often described as becoming softer and slightly more relaxed with regular use. A less-used piece can feel firmer at first, while a well-loved bag usually sits more naturally on the shoulder.
Q: Do people use an organiser with the Artsy MM? A: Quite often, yes. Because the Artsy is a soft, roomy hobo, some owners like to add a felt organiser to give the interior more structure, make small items easier to find and help the bag keep its shape.
Q: What does the date code CA0137 indicate? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period use two letters followed by four numbers. In this format, the numbers indicate the production week and year, so CA0137 points to the 3rd week of 2017. As with all Louis Vuitton pieces, a date code helps identify production details but should not be treated as proof of authenticity on its own.
Q: What is the condition of this particular bag? A: This piece is listed in Very Good condition. The product information notes scuffing on the corners, a stain on the inside, and hardware that remains shiny with light scratches and some discolouration.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: According to the product information, no additional items are included with this piece.
