Designed for city breaks, festivals and off-duty days, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Bumbag keeps your essentials close and your hands free. Ideal from morning coffee to evening strolls, it adds effortless LV flair to casual looks and travel alike.
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 Monogram Bumbag? A: The classic Bumbag comfortably carries daily essentials: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max sizes), a continental wallet or cardholder, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, AirPods and a small cosmetics pouch. Many users also place a small water bottle horizontally in the main compartment. Capacity can vary slightly by how you pack; please compare your items with the Measurements on this page (approx. 32 × 15 × 13 cm) or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: How can I wear it and is the strap adjustable? A: The Bumbag is designed for multiple carries: across the chest (sling/crossbody), around the waist, or on the shoulder. It features an adjustable leather strap with a buckle for a personalised fit and a small top handle for grab‑and‑go styling. We list handle/strap measurements under “Measurements”—if anything’s missing, just ask and we’ll confirm for you.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: It has a zip‑top main compartment for everyday security and a zipped pocket on the back for quick‑access, flatter items. For travel or commuting, we recommend keeping valuables in the rear pocket or a small zip pouch inside, and wearing the bag to the front in crowded areas.
Q: Is the Monogram Bumbag still produced? A: The original Monogram Bumbag was widely phased out/discontinued around 2022. Availability of newer bum bag styles can vary by season, but the classic Monogram version is best found on the pre‑loved market. We specialise in authentic pre‑loved pieces like this one.
Q: Will the back zipped pocket fit a large phone? A: The rear pocket is ideal for slim, flat items (travel cards, receipts, cardholder). Many larger phones fit, but bulky cases can make it snug and may distort the silhouette. If you share your phone’s dimensions, we’ll test the fit in this specific bag.
Q: What materials is this bag made from and how should I care for them? A: This model features Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and gold‑tone hardware. Coated canvas is robust and water‑resistant, while Vachetta is untreated and will develop a honey patina over time. Avoid rain and dark‑denim colour transfer on the leather; blot any light moisture (don’t rub), wipe canvas with a soft dry cloth, and condition smooth leather sparingly with a neutral product (test first on a discreet area).
Q: Where are the brand markings and production codes located? What does “MI3168” mean? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton bags include an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and country of origin). Pre‑2021 pieces typically have a date code tucked inside (often on or near an interior seam or pocket). The code “MI3168” decodes to production in the 36th week of 2018, with “MI” indicating a French factory—consistent with this piece’s “Made in France” stamp. Note: since around 2021, Louis Vuitton transitioned to embedded microchips instead of visible date codes on many items.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts. We examine materials, stitching, glazing, hardware, stamps, date code/microchip (by era) and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Included items are listed under “Accessories.” For this specific listing we note “no accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there (e.g., box, dust bag, extra straps), it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm.
Q: How should I store the Bumbag to keep it in good condition? A: Store it lightly stuffed (acid‑free tissue), upright, in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity. Keep metal parts from rubbing leather during storage (use a soft cloth/felt), and avoid leaving the strap buckled tightly around the bag to prevent impressions in the Vachetta.
