Ideal for city breaks and daily commutes, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Montsouris GM offers hands-free ease with dual adjustable straps and a drawstring closure secured by a buckled flap. Its iconic monogram canvas with Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone hardware brings vintage charm, while the external zipped pocket keeps essentials close at hand.
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 fits inside the Louis Vuitton Montsouris GM Backpack? A: As the largest model in the vintage Montsouris line, the GM is designed to hold daily essentials including A4 documents, a water bottle, a large wallet, and often a 13-inch laptop. However, please refer to the Measurements on this page (approx. 32 cm height) to check if your specific device fits comfortably, as vintage sizing can vary.
Q: Is the closure secure? A: The bag features a drawstring closure that cinches the main compartment, covered by a flap with a buckle strap. This provides excellent security for city use. For items you need to grab on the go, there is a convenient zipped pocket on the exterior front.
Q: Are the straps adjustable and comfortable? A: Yes, the Montsouris GM features dual adjustable shoulder straps. They are typically crafted from durable webbed canvas with leather trim, which offers better comfort for heavier loads compared to thin leather straps.
Q: What is the condition of the leather base? A: This model features a full Vachetta leather base, which gives the bag structure. As noted in the description, the leather on this piece shows a visible patina with watermarks and scuffing, which is common for vintage Vachetta and adds to its character.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather? A: Untreated Vachetta leather is sensitive to moisture and oils. We recommend keeping it away from rain and damp surfaces to prevent further water spots. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth if needed, and allow the patina to deepen naturally.
Q: Where can I find the date code? A: The date code is typically stamped on a leather tab inside the main compartment. This specific bag bears the code SP0070, indicating it was made in France in July 2000.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: The interior is lined in brown textile canvas and features a single spacious main compartment with one open slip pocket for organization.
Q: Is this the current model? A: No, this is the vintage Montsouris GM, which has since been discontinued and replaced by newer iterations. The vintage model is beloved for its classic design and full leather bottom.
Q: What accessories come with this bag? A: This item lists “no accessories” (such as a dust bag or box). If an accessory is not listed, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: All items at A Retro Tale undergo a strict multi-point inspection by our experts, covering materials, hardware, stitching, and codes. We guarantee the authenticity of this Louis Vuitton backpack.
