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 in the Louis Vuitton Monogram Bumbag? A: Based on the listed measurements (approx. 27 × 15 × 13 cm), it comfortably carries a large smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, sunglasses in a soft case, and small essentials like lip balm or hand sanitiser. The rear zipped pocket is useful for slim items such as travel cards or receipts. Capacity depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: How can I wear this bag? A: The adjustable belt strap allows you to wear it around the waist, cross-body across the chest or back, or on the shoulder for a relaxed look. The small top handle also makes for easy grab-and-go carrying when needed.
Q: Is the strap detachable on the classic Monogram Bumbag? A: On the classic, full-size Monogram Bumbag the belt strap is adjustable but not designed to be detached. Some later or alternative versions (for example the Mini Bumbag) may feature detachable straps, but this listing is the classic Monogram style with a fixed belt strap.
Q: Is the Louis Vuitton Monogram Bumbag still in production? A: The original Monogram Bumbag was widely reported as discontinued in 2022. As a result, it is now mainly available through trusted resale platforms and curated vintage retailers like ours.
Q: What does the date code MI2169 indicate on this item? A: MI denotes manufacture in France. For items produced from 2007 to 2020, the first and third numbers indicate the week and the second and fourth numbers indicate the year. MI2169 therefore corresponds to week 26 of 2019, made in France. Louis Vuitton began replacing date codes with embedded microchips from 2021, so newer pieces may not have a date code.
Q: What materials is this bag made from, and is it water-resistant? A: It is crafted from Louis Vuitton’s Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim and gold-tone hardware. The coated canvas is durable and water-resistant; however, the Vachetta leather is untreated and sensitive to water and oils, so it can darken or stain if exposed.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe the canvas with a soft, barely damp cloth and allow it to air dry. Avoid harsh cleaners. Keep Vachetta leather dry, protect it from rain and direct heat, and handle with clean hands to encourage an even patina. For stains or deeper cleaning on Vachetta, we recommend consulting a leather-care professional. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from sunlight to help maintain its shape and colour.
Q: Is this style unisex? A: Yes. The Bumbag’s functional design and adjustable strap make it a versatile, unisex piece that suits a wide range of body types and styling preferences.
Q: Does this listing include any accessories? A: This specific item is sold without accessories, as noted under Accessories. If an item like a dust bag or box is not listed there, it is not included—please contact us if you need clarification.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is thoroughly vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and date codes or microchips where applicable. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
