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 Croisette? A: Despite its compact size, it comfortably holds a 6.7-inch smartphone, a compact or slim long wallet, keys, lipstick and small essentials. A small sunglasses case (soft) fits; bulkier items like water bottles or tablets are generally too large. For exact capacity, please refer to the Measurements on this page.
Q: Can I wear it cross-body as well as by the top handle? A: Yes. The Croisette comes with a detachable shoulder strap and a single top handle, so it can be worn cross-body, on the shoulder or handheld. The strap drop is around 56 cm on most Croisette models, which suits cross-body wear for many builds.
Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable? A: On most Croisette models the strap is removable and not adjustable. Strap length can feel different based on height and build; if you prefer a shorter or longer drop, many owners use a compatible third‑party strap. Please check the product information for the exact strap details of this specific piece.
Q: Is the tassel included and can I remove it? A: The Croisette is designed with a removable leather tassel charm. Please see the product information on this page to confirm what is included with this item.
Q: What are the materials and how should I care for them? A: It is crafted in Damier Ebene coated canvas with smooth cowhide leather trim and gold‑colour hardware. Avoid abrasion, moisture and prolonged sun/heat exposure; keep away from oils, cosmetics and alcohol‑based solutions; if it gets wet, blot dry with a light, lint‑free cloth. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help it keep its shape.
Q: How does the S‑lock work and how do I look after the hardware? A: Gently press to release the S‑lock and close it until it clicks. Gold‑colour hardware will naturally show fine hairline scratches over time; avoid contact with hard surfaces, and wipe with a soft dry cloth. Do not use metal polishes or solvents.
Q: Where are Croisette bags made? A: Depending on the production run, authentic Croisette bags may be made in France, Spain, Italy or the United States. The country of origin is stamped inside the bag; small variations are normal for Louis Vuitton production.
Q: What does the date code TR0167 mean on this piece? A: TR indicates a French workshop, and 0167 denotes the 6th week of 2017. Note that date codes are not unique serial numbers and, from 2021 onward, Louis Vuitton began phasing them out in favour of internal microchips—so date codes are only one of many checks used in authentication.
Q: Is the Croisette still in production? A: Availability varies by region and season. The Croisette has been offered in Damier Ebene and Damier Azur; if it is not visible on your local Louis Vuitton website, it may be temporarily unavailable or boutique‑only. Either way, this pre‑loved piece is a classic, versatile option if you love the style.
