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: Is this the Classic Pochette Métis or the East West version? A: This is the Classic Pochette Métis in Monogram canvas, featuring the taller satchel silhouette with a single top handle, a detachable and adjustable leather shoulder strap, the signature S-lock closure, three internal compartments, and a rear zipped pocket.
Q: What are the measurements and how does it carry on the body? A: Approximate measurements for this piece are 24 × 19 × 8 cm with a 4 cm top-handle drop and an adjustable shoulder strap around 53 cm (drop varies by hole setting). It can be carried by hand, on the shoulder, or crossbody.
Q: What typically fits inside day to day? A: It comfortably holds a large smartphone, a continental wallet, keys, sunglasses in a soft case, a passport, and a small cosmetic pouch. An iPad mini can fit without a bulky case; avoid overfilling to maintain the structure and glazing.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The bag has three separate internal compartments lined in microfibre for easy organisation, plus a convenient zipped pocket on the back for items you want quick access to such as a phone or travel cards.
Q: Is the strap adjustable enough for different heights? A: Yes. The leather strap is detachable and length-adjustable, allowing most heights to wear it comfortably crossbody or on the shoulder. For a shorter carry, use the top handle.
Q: What materials is it made from and how should I care for it? A: The exterior is Monogram coated canvas with untreated Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone hardware. Wipe canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth; keep Vachetta away from water, oils, and dark fabrics to reduce spotting and colour transfer. Store lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct heat and sunlight.
Q: Are there known wear points on the Pochette Métis? A: Common wear areas include glazing along flap edges, corner rubbing, and hairline scratches on the S-lock. Avoid overpacking and repeated heavy pressure on the flap; if wear develops, professional repairs are available through Louis Vuitton after assessment and quotation.
Q: Does this bag have a date code or a microchip? A: Older Pochette Métis bags typically have a date code, while pieces produced from around March 2021 may instead have an embedded microchip with no visible code. As this is a vintage piece, it may carry a date code; placement varies by production run. Our team can help point this out in detailed photos on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this piece, the listing shows a dust bag and a detachable shoulder strap.
Q: Where was this item made? A: The country-of-origin stamp for this individual piece indicates France; note that Louis Vuitton produces the Pochette Métis in several countries depending on the batch.
