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 bags is this Louis Vuitton shoulder strap likely to fit? A: It is best suited to bags with compatible side attachments and matching hardware. As fit varies by model, please compare this strap’s full length of 110 cm and width of 2 cm with your bag and your current strap before purchasing.
Q: Can this strap be worn crossbody? A: This strap measures 110 cm in full length, which often suits shoulder wear and may work as a shorter crossbody on some frames or smaller bags. Crossbody fit varies by height, build and bag shape, so it is best to compare it with a strap you already find comfortable.
Q: Is the strap adjustable? A: No adjustable range is listed for this specific item. Please use the stated 110 cm length as your main fit guide.
Q: What is Vachetta leather, and will it change over time? A: Vachetta is Louis Vuitton’s natural, vegetable-tanned cowhide. It is known for developing a warmer amber patina with age and use, so some darkening, tonal variation and small marks are a normal part of how this leather matures.
Q: How should I care for Vachetta leather? A: Keep it away from rain, oils, perfume, hand sanitiser and other alcohol-based products. If it gets wet, blot it gently with a soft, light-coloured cloth and let it dry naturally. Store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid harsh cleaners, which can cause uneven marks or dryness.
Q: What condition is this strap in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition with light traces of use. The brass hardware remains shiny and shows light surface scratches, which is consistent with gentle vintage wear.
Q: Does anything else come with this item? A: No additional items are included with this piece. Please rely on the photos and product information on this page for what is included.
Q: Can Louis Vuitton repair or replace a strap like this? A: Louis Vuitton offers repair services for leather goods and similar pieces, with assessment carried out online or in store. Any repair or replacement is handled case by case and depends on the model, condition and material availability.
Q: How is authenticity checked for a vintage Louis Vuitton strap? A: A Retro Tale carefully vets its items using expert authentication checks before sale. For vintage straps, buyers typically look at the leather quality, construction, hardware and overall consistency, but the seller’s expert review is the main reassurance when buying pre-owned.
