Perfect for boardroom meetings, client visits and polished commutes, this vintage Louis Vuitton Epi 17‑inch laptop case brings discreet luxury to your workday. Its slim black profile slips neatly into a briefcase or carry‑on, while the zip closure and organised interior with pockets keep essentials tidy from desk 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: Will my laptop fit this case? A: The case measures approximately 37 × 26 × 1.5 cm externally. For a comfortable fit, your device should be a little smaller than the interior on all sides; as a guide, slim devices up to roughly 35.5 × 24.5 cm may fit, depending on thickness. The historical style name “17-Inch” reflects Louis Vuitton’s naming at the time, so please compare your device’s measurements with those listed here. A4 documents (29.7 × 21 cm) fit easily.
Q: Is the interior padded and protective? A: This is a structured leather sleeve designed for slim laptops and documents. It has a soft-lined interior with a zipped pocket and slip pockets, but only light padding. For enhanced drop and corner protection, we recommend using a thin padded shell on your device inside the case.
Q: What can I carry besides a laptop? A: The slim profile is ideal for a device and flat essentials such as A4 papers, a notebook, or a thin tablet. Cables and a compact charger can be stored in the internal pockets if they are low‑profile; bulky power bricks may be better carried separately to maintain the case’s shape.
Q: Is Epi leather water resistant? A: Epi leather is known for its textured, durable finish that offers some resistance to light moisture and surface scuffs. However, it is not fully waterproof. If the case gets wet, wipe it dry promptly and allow it to air dry away from heat sources.
Q: How should I care for and clean Epi leather? A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth, then dry with a clean towel. Avoid soaps, solvents, and alcohol‑based cleaners. Keep away from prolonged sunlight and high heat, and store in a breathable dust bag when not in use.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap or other extras? A: This piece is a handheld zip‑around sleeve without a strap. Everything included with this item is listed in the product information section on this page; if an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: Is it unisex and suitable for business travel? A: Yes. The minimalist design in black Epi leather suits all genders and works well for office, meetings, and travel. The zip‑around closure keeps contents secure and the slim silhouette slides easily into a briefcase or tote.
Q: Does it have a date code or microchip? A: Many vintage Louis Vuitton pieces feature a heat‑stamped date code that indicates production period and factory. Since 2021, Louis Vuitton has transitioned to embedded microchips instead of visible date codes on new items. As a vintage piece, this case may have a date code; our team authenticates the item regardless of whether a code is present.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes a multi‑point inspection by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, stamps, hardware, and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional details on request.
Q: Any storage tips to keep it in top condition? A: Store the case empty or lightly stuffed with acid‑free tissue to maintain its shape. Keep it in a breathable dust bag, in a cool, dry place, and avoid overfilling to prevent stress on the zip and seams.
