For a stylish weekend away, this vintage Louis Vuitton Keepall 45 in Monogram canvas is a timeless choice. Sized for overnight essentials, it transitions smoothly from a city break to a countryside retreat. Dual rolled handles and a top zip offer easy, secure carry, adding classic LV elegance to every short journey.
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 Keepall 45? A: As a compact weekender (approx. 45 × 25 × 20 cm), it suits 1–2 nights away: 1–2 outfits, underwear, a pair of shoes, toiletries, chargers, and small accessories. A 13-inch laptop or tablet fits in a protective sleeve, though there is no padded compartment. Capacity varies with packing style.
Q: Is the Keepall 45 accepted as cabin baggage? A: Usually yes. At 45 cm in length, it falls within the cabin size limits of most airlines. Policies differ by carrier and route, so please check your specific airline’s rules before flying.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap? A: This is the classic handheld Keepall, designed to be carried by its dual rolled leather handles. Only the Bandoulière versions include a detachable, adjustable shoulder strap and side strap attachments.
Q: Will my laptop fit, and is there a sleeve inside? A: Most 13-inch laptops and many 14-inch ultraportables fit comfortably, ideally in a separate protective sleeve. The interior is an open single compartment without a dedicated laptop sleeve or pockets.
Q: What does the date code SP0994 mean? A: The letters indicate the country and factory group, and the numbers indicate when it was made. For 1990–2006 codes, the first and third digits show the month and the second and fourth show the year. SP0994 decodes to September 1994, made in France.
Q: Where is the date code located on a Keepall? A: On most Keepalls of this era it is stamped on a small leather tab along an interior seam near the zip end. Placement can vary slightly by production year and lining, and codes may fade with age. Note that from around 2021 Louis Vuitton moved to embedded microchips rather than visible date codes on new items.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry it promptly. Vachetta leather is untreated and will develop a natural patina; keep it away from water, oils, and dark denim transfer. Condition sparingly with products suitable for vegetable‑tanned leather, avoid harsh cleaners, and store the bag loosely stuffed in its dust bag away from heat and direct sunlight.
Q: Is the Monogram canvas waterproof? A: The coated canvas is hard‑wearing and water‑resistant, but the natural Vachetta leather trim is sensitive to moisture and may stain or darken. If caught in light rain, gently blot dry as soon as possible and allow it to air dry naturally away from heat sources.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories. For this bag we include a dust bag and a handle fastener. Items such as a padlock, keys, luggage tag, or a shoulder strap are not included unless specified.
Q: Is there a way to keep the bag more structured when packed? A: The Keepall’s soft construction is designed to be flexible. If you prefer a neater shape, use packing cubes, a light bag organiser, or a base shaper and avoid overloading the bag’s sides.
