Perfect for dinner dates or gallery openings, this Louis Vuitton Saint Germain PM in black Monogram Empreinte leather brings refined elegance. Gold-tone hardware, a sliding chain shoulder strap and a secure S-lock offer effortless, hands-free wear, while the black microfibre interior with two compartments and a zipped pocket keeps essentials neatly organised.
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 of this Saint Germain PM and how does it carry? A: The bag measures approximately 26 × 19 × 7.5 cm. It features a sliding chain strap that can be worn crossbody at roughly 58 cm drop or doubled for shoulder carry at about 28–29 cm. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact figures for this piece.
Q: What typically fits inside the Saint Germain PM? A: Everyday essentials such as a smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, sunglasses in a slim case, and a few small cosmetics fit comfortably. A small e‑reader or compact tablet may fit depending on the case and how you organise items—use the listed measurements to compare with your device.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable and comfortable? A: The chain is a sliding design, so you can wear it long crossbody or double it for a shorter shoulder length. The chain has a substantial feel; many users find it comfortable for day-to-evening wear, especially when the load is balanced across the two internal compartments.
Q: Is the Saint Germain PM in Monogram Empreinte still produced by Louis Vuitton? A: This Empreinte version was introduced in the mid‑2010s and is now discontinued, which is why it appears mainly on the pre‑loved market. Availability is limited to existing pieces.
Q: What does the date code TR0155 mean on this item? A: TR indicates production in France. With this format, the first and third numbers show the week and the second and fourth numbers show the year; TR0155 therefore corresponds to the 5th week of 2015. Note that date codes are not unique serial numbers and, from 2021 onward, Louis Vuitton moved to microchips on new items—authentication involves many factors, not the date code alone.
Q: What are the key features and interior layout of this model? A: This Saint Germain PM is crafted from Monogram Empreinte leather with gold‑tone hardware and an S‑lock flap closure. Inside, the microfibre‑lined interior is organised into two compartments with an additional zipped pocket for valuables—ideal for keeping essentials tidy.
Q: How durable is Monogram Empreinte leather and how should I care for it? A: Empreinte is supple yet durable, designed for regular use. Care is simple: avoid prolonged exposure to water, oils, perfumes and heat; wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; and store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight. Avoid overfilling to help the bag keep its shape over time.
Q: What is included with this listing? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. Unless a dust bag, box or other items are specifically mentioned there, the bag is offered without additional items.
Q: What is the condition of this pre‑loved piece? A: Please see the condition notes on this page: exterior in good condition with some scuffed corners; interior in very good condition with light signs of use and a slight vintage smell; hardware shows scratches and some dullness. Gentle airing in a cool, dry place can help minimise storage odour over time.
