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 this Cabas Voyages tote? A: With approximate measurements of 40 × 35 × 11 cm, it comfortably takes a 15-inch laptop (and most slim 16-inch models), A4/letter documents, a tablet, charger, water bottle and daily essentials. Capacity varies with pouches and organisers—please use our measurements to compare with your device or case.
Q: Can it be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. The dual flat handles have an approximate drop of 25 cm, allowing shoulder carry over light outerwear, or hand/arm carry for versatility.
Q: Does it have a top zip or closure? A: This model is designed with an open top for quick access. If you prefer more security, we recommend using a zipped bag organiser or pouches to keep valuables discreet and contained inside the tote.
Q: What is Damier Graphite made of—Is it leather? A: Damier Graphite is a coated canvas (cotton canvas with a protective resin coating) with smooth black leather trim. The canvas is valued for being hard-wearing, lightweight and resistant to water and surface scuffs, while the leather adds structure and refinement.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and leather trim? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth; for heavier marks, use mild soapy water then dry immediately. Avoid harsh solvents, colour-transfer from dark denim, and prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Nourish leather trim sparingly with a suitable neutral leather conditioner and store the bag stuffed and upright in a breathable dust bag.
Q: Is Damier Graphite considered a men’s line, and is this bag unisex? A: Damier Graphite launched in 2008 within Louis Vuitton’s men’s collections, but the monochrome check and practical tote format are widely worn by all genders. The style and size make an excellent everyday or work bag regardless of wardrobe.
Q: Is it suitable for travel or as a cabin/under‑seat bag? A: The compact, soft‑sided profile generally fits within many airlines’ personal‑item or carry‑on dimensions. Airline rules vary, so we suggest checking your specific carrier, aircraft and fare class before flying.
Q: Where would I find the date code on a vintage Louis Vuitton tote like this? A: On earlier pieces you may find a small alphanumeric date code stamped on a leather tab or directly on the lining, often near or inside an interior pocket. Codes can fade with time. Note that Louis Vuitton began replacing stamped date codes with embedded NFC microchips from March 2021, so some newer bags will not have a visible code.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing is sold as shown with no accessories. Everything included is always listed under Accessories on this page; if an item like a dust bag or padlock isn’t listed, it isn’t included.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is thoroughly inspected by in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, canvas print alignment, stitching, stamps, hardware and date‑code or microchip era‑consistency. We stand by the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
