Perfect for city errands and weekend getaways, this vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Amazon is a compact companion that keeps essentials close while you explore. Sling it over your shoulder for hands-free ease from morning coffee to evening strolls; the classic Monogram canvas lends instant polish to casual outfits and smart-casual looks alike.
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 Louis Vuitton Monogram Amazon? A: With approximate dimensions of 20 × 17 × 9 cm, it’s ideal for daily essentials: a large smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, wireless earbuds, slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve, a small cosmetics pouch and travel documents such as a passport. An iPad mini–sized tablet may fit but can be snug due to the zip opening—share your device’s measurements and we’ll check the fit in this exact piece.
Q: Is the strap adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The Amazon features a single adjustable shoulder strap designed for shoulder or crossbody wear. It is generally not intended to be fully detachable. We list strap details under Measurements (this piece notes an approx. 80 cm strap length); if you’d like the exact drop on the shortest/longest settings, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: It has a zip‑top main compartment for everyday security, one exterior zipped pocket for quick‑access items and a brown leather‑lined interior with one slip pocket to keep smaller valuables organised. Please refer to our photos for the exact layout of this bag.
Q: Will it fit a tablet, A5 diary or a water bottle? A: An A5 diary or small notebook fits easily. Compact tablets (e.g., iPad mini/Kindle) may fit but are often snug because of the curved zip opening; full‑size tablets do not fit. A 500 ml bottle usually does not stand upright and may distort the shape—if needed, we can test a bottle for you.
Q: What materials is it made from and how should I care for them? A: The bag is crafted from Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and brass hardware. Wipe canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Vachetta is untreated and develops a patina; keep it away from rain and oils, blot (don’t rub) if lightly wet, and condition very sparingly after testing on a discreet area. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid prolonged contact with dark denim to prevent colour transfer.
Q: Can I use it in light rain? A: The coated canvas tolerates light moisture, but the Vachetta trim can spot or darken when wet. If caught in a drizzle, blot gently and allow the bag to air‑dry away from heat sources. For best results, avoid heavy rain and prolonged exposure to moisture.
Q: Where are the brand stamps/date codes and how is dating handled? A: Vintage Louis Vuitton bags typically feature an interior heat‑stamp and a date code on a small leather tab or along an interior seam or pocket; codes can fade with age. From around 2021, Louis Vuitton transitioned to embedded microchips instead of visible date codes, but vintage pieces like this usually carry a date code. We’re happy to locate and interpret it for you.
Q: Is the Amazon (also known as Amazone) still produced? A: The classic Amazon is considered a vintage/discontinued model and is most commonly found on the pre‑loved market. Louis Vuitton occasionally releases modern pieces inspired by archival silhouettes, but originals like this are typically vintage.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, heat‑stamps, date code/microchip details and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell and can provide additional photos or information on request.
Q: What accessories are included and what is the condition of this piece? A: This listing is delivered with no accessories unless otherwise stated under “Accessories.” Condition notes for this exact bag are: Exterior—Very Good with light signs of use; Interior—Very Good with light signs of use; Hardware—tarnished with some scratches. Please review all photos and measurements for the best sense of this item’s story and wear.
