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 Cabas Zippé GM? A: With approximate measurements of 44 × 37 × 20 cm, it’s a spacious tote for work or travel. It usually fits a 15–16-inch laptop in a slim sleeve, A4 folders/documents, a full-size wallet, keys, sunglasses, a charger, earbuds, a toiletries pouch and a 500–750 ml water bottle. Capacity can vary slightly by production year—compare your items to the Measurements on this page or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a 15/16-inch laptop and is there padding? A: Yes—most 15- and many 16-inch laptops fit given the 44 cm width and 37 cm height. The bag isn’t padded, so we recommend a slim protective sleeve. If you share your device’s dimensions, we can test the fit in this specific bag on request.
Q: How can I carry it—are the handles adjustable and is there a crossbody strap? A: This model features dual adjustable flat top handles for hand or shoulder wear (approx. 18 cm handle drop noted for this item). It is not designed with a long crossbody strap. Everything included with this piece is listed under “Accessories.”
Q: How secure is the closure and what’s the interior layout? A: The Cabas Zippé GM has a zip-top main compartment for everyday security. Interiors typically include black textile lining with slip pockets; some production runs include a removable interior zip pouch, but that accessory is not included with this particular listing unless stated under “Accessories.” Our photos show the exact layout.
Q: What is Monogram Eclipse canvas? A: Monogram Eclipse is Louis Vuitton’s dark, modern take on the classic Monogram—grey/black coated canvas (often paired with Eclipse Reverse panels) and silver-tone hardware. Introduced in mens collections around autumn 2016, it delivers a refined, understated look while retaining the durability LV’s coated canvases are known for.
Q: How durable is the coated canvas? Will it wrinkle or crack? A: LV’s coated canvas is robust and suitable for daily use. Light wrinkling can appear on some Eclipse items and usually doesn’t affect function. Canvas cracking is uncommon but can occur if a bag is over‑folded, stored flattened, or repeatedly overloaded. Avoid folding, keep loads reasonable, and store it properly to help prevent stress marks.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram Eclipse canvas and leather trim? A: Wipe the canvas with a soft, dry cloth; for light marks use a barely damp cloth with mild soap, then dry immediately. Do not use harsh chemicals, alcohol, bleach, or heavy leather conditioners on coated canvas. For leather trim, a high‑quality neutral conditioner can be used very sparingly after testing on a discreet area. Store upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid prolonged pressure on the handles or hardware.
Q: What does the serial/date code FY4250 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used two‑letter factory codes plus four digits until around early 2021 (when microchips began replacing visible codes). In this format, the 1st and 3rd digits indicate the week, and the 2nd and 4th the year—so “4250” decodes to the 45th week of 2020. The “FY” factory prefix corresponds to an Italian facility, matching this item’s Made in Italy stamp.
Q: Is the Cabas Zippé GM still produced? A: Availability varies by season and region; this GM size in Monogram Eclipse has most commonly been found on the pre‑loved market in recent years rather than as a regularly stocked boutique item. If you’re seeking particular configurations (e.g., Eclipse Reverse panels or interior pouch), the resale market is your best route.
Q: What accessories are included and how is authenticity guaranteed? A: For this piece we list: dust bag and luggage tag under “Accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date code/microchip and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell.
