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 are the measurements and what typically fits inside the Keepall Bandoulière 50? A: This piece measures approximately 51 × 27 × 22 cm. It comfortably holds outfits for a 2–3 day trip, a pair of trainers, a toiletry bag, small accessories, and a laptop or tablet in a protective sleeve. The interior is unstructured and unpadded, so use pouches or a sleeve for electronics and toiletries.
Q: Is the Keepall 50 generally cabin‑friendly as hand luggage? A: Yes, the 50 size is typically accepted as carry‑on with most airlines because its length is under the common 55 cm limit. Policies vary by carrier and aircraft, so please check your airline’s current rules before travel. Soft sides also allow a little give when packing.
Q: What does “Bandoulière” mean and how can this bag be carried? A: Bandoulière denotes the version with a detachable, adjustable shoulder strap in addition to the dual rolled top handles. It can be worn on the shoulder or cross‑body for hands‑free travel. On this item, the strap is included and the measured strap drop is up to about 43 cm, allowing most wearers to carry it cross‑body comfortably.
Q: Which accessories are included with this specific item? A: According to our listing, this bag comes with a detachable shoulder strap, a luggage tag, a padlock and a handle fastener. If keys, a dust bag or other items are included, they will be explicitly listed; if they are not listed, they are not included.
Q: How durable is Monogram canvas and how should I care for it and the Vachetta leather trim? A: Louis Vuitton’s Monogram is a coated canvas that is hard‑wearing and easy to wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. The Vachetta leather trim is untreated calf leather that will darken naturally with use and is susceptible to watermarks and stains. Avoid rain, oils, hand sanitiser and prolonged sunlight; do not use harsh cleaners or protectants on Vachetta. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from direct heat and light.
Q: The description notes watermarks on the Vachetta. Can these be removed? A: Light marks may mellow as the leather develops a deeper patina, but watermarks and stains on Vachetta are often permanent. Gentle cleaning can sometimes improve the look, and a professional leather specialist may reduce strong contrasts, but complete removal is unlikely. Avoid aggressive products or soaking, which can worsen staining.
Q: What does the date code TH0955 indicate? A: TH is a French factory code. For 1990s date codes, the first and third digits indicate the month and the second and fourth the year. TH0955 therefore corresponds to May 1995, made in France. Note that date codes support but do not guarantee authenticity; we authenticate each item using a multi‑point inspection of materials, stitching, stamps and hardware.
Q: There’s a slight vintage smell noted—how can I minimise it at home? A: Air the bag in a shaded, well‑ventilated area and place odour absorbers such as activated charcoal or baking‑soda sachets nearby (not in direct contact with leather). Repeat over several days. Never spray perfume or use harsh deodorisers on the leather. Persistent odours are best handled by a specialist familiar with luxury leathers.
Q: Is the Keepall 50 practical for daily use or the gym? A: Yes. Its size suits gym essentials like trainers, kit and a towel, and the Bandoulière strap makes it comfortable for hands‑free commuting. As with all soft‑sided weekenders, avoid overloading to maintain comfort and shape.
