Made for evenings out, this blue Monogram Louis Vuitton Cabas Pouch slips effortlessly from cocktails to gallery openings. The leather wrist strap offers hands-free ease, while the zip-top design and lined interior keep essentials secure. In very good condition, it adds a refined pop of colour to tailored looks or elevates casual denim at weekend brunch.
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 Cabas Pouch? A: With dimensions of approximately 29 × 19 × 0.3 cm, it comfortably holds daily essentials such as a large smartphone, passport, cardholder or slim wallet, keys, and small cosmetics. A slim A5 notebook or a slender e‑reader can fit when placed horizontally. For best results, avoid over‑packing to preserve the pouch’s shape.
Q: Is the Monogram material leather? A: No. Louis Vuitton’s Monogram is a coated canvas, not leather. It is valued for being lightweight and durable, with leather used for certain trims and straps depending on the design.
Q: Is the canvas water‑resistant? A: The coated canvas handles light rain and splashes, but it is not fully waterproof. Wipe dry promptly and avoid contact with chemicals, alcohol‑based products, or harsh cleaners. For routine cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth with a little mild soap and then dry gently.
Q: What does the date code GI1118 mean? A: GI indicates manufacture in Spain, and the digits show the production period. Using the contemporary format (two letters + four numbers), the first and third digits indicate the week and the second and fourth indicate the year—so 11/18 corresponds to the 11th week of 2018. Please note Louis Vuitton phased out physical date codes from 2021 in favour of embedded microchips, so newer items may not have a date code.
Q: Can I use this as a clutch or wristlet? A: Yes. This pouch is designed to be carried by its wrist strap as a sleek clutch for day or evening, or used as an organiser inside a larger tote.
Q: Can I add a long strap to wear it crossbody? A: This style is intended as a flat pouch/wristlet and is not designed for shoulder or crossbody carry. Aftermarket conversion kits exist, but using third‑party hardware or modifying the bag may mark the canvas or hardware and is not recommended.
Q: What is the interior like? A: It has a black textile lining and a single, zip‑secured compartment—ideal for keeping essentials neat and easy to access.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything supplied is listed in the product information on this page. For this piece, the product information indicates no additional items are included.
Q: How should I store and care for it long‑term? A: Store it loosely filled to maintain shape, in a breathable cover, in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Rotate use and avoid rubbing against abrasive surfaces. To minimise colour transfer—especially with light or printed canvases—keep it away from dark, highly pigmented fabrics (like new denim).
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is vetted by our specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and date codes where applicable. Because date codes can be counterfeited and have been phased out, we never rely on them alone—we examine the whole item to ensure authenticity and stand behind every item we sell.
