Perfect for weekend getaways and city breaks, the vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Speedy 35 offers effortless elegance and space for your essentials. Its classic monogram and iconic silhouette elevate travel looks from departure to dinner.
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 Speedy 35? A: With approximate measurements of 35 × 23 × 19 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a 13-inch laptop in a slim sleeve, a water bottle, a compact umbrella, a cosmetics pouch and a light jumper. The top zip opening is slightly narrower than the base, so larger items may need to be angled when placing them inside.
Q: Does this Speedy 35 come with a shoulder strap? A: This is the classic top-handle Speedy 35, designed to be carried by hand or in the crook of the arm. It does not include a shoulder strap; that feature is found on the Speedy Bandoulière versions. Third‑party strap adaptors are not recommended because the classic Speedy lacks side D‑rings.
Q: Is the Monogram canvas water-resistant? A: Louis Vuitton’s coated canvas is durable and water‑resistant, but the natural Vachetta leather trim and handles are untreated and can darken and mark with water. Avoid rain and liquids, wipe canvas with a soft dry cloth, and allow any moisture on the leather to air‑dry naturally away from heat.
Q: What does the date code SP0974 mean? A: SP indicates production in France. For the 1990–2006 format, the first and third digits denote the month and the second and fourth digits denote the year. SP0974 therefore corresponds to July 1994.
Q: Where is the date code usually found on a vintage Speedy? A: On many vintage Speedy bags, the date code is typically stamped on a small leather tab near or behind the interior pocket. Placement can vary slightly by year and lining type.
Q: Can the Speedy 35 be used as a personal item when flying? A: The Speedy 35 is commonly used as a personal item or handbag on flights due to its compact size. Airline rules vary, so please check your carrier’s current allowance before travelling.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather and keep the shape? A: Keep the leather away from water, oils and alcohol‑based products; expect a natural patina to develop with use. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity. A lightweight bag organiser can help maintain structure and reduce interior marks.
Q: Does this listing include a padlock, key or dust bag? A: Everything included is always listed under the product information on this page. For this piece, no additional items are noted in the product information.
Q: Is this bag authentic? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, heat stamps, and production codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide further details on request.
Q: Is the Speedy 35 heavy to carry? A: The Speedy is known for being relatively lightweight for its size thanks to its coated canvas construction. For comfort, avoid prolonged overloading and distribute weight with pouches or an organiser.
