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 Keepall 45? A: As a compact weekender (approx. 45 × 26 × 20 cm), it comfortably holds 1–2 outfits, a toiletry bag, a pair of shoes, chargers and small tech, plus a book or tablet. A 13-inch laptop in a slim sleeve fits easily; some 14-inch models may fit depending on bezel and sleeve thickness. For best results, compare your items to the Measurements listed on this page.
Q: Is the Keepall 45 carry-on compliant? A: Yes. At 45 cm in length, it is within cabin baggage limits for most airlines. Policies vary by carrier and aircraft, so please check your specific airline’s rules before travelling.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap? A: This is the classic handheld Keepall 45, designed to be carried by its dual rolled handles (approx. 12 cm drop). It does not include the detachable strap or D-rings found on the Bandoulière versions.
Q: What does the date code SP0961 mean? A: Under Louis Vuitton’s 1990–2006 format, the first and third digits indicate the month and the second and fourth indicate the year. SP0961 corresponds to June 1991. The letters SP denote a French factory. Please note that date codes are not unique serial numbers and are only one part of authenticity assessment.
Q: What is included with this item? A: As noted in the product information, this piece comes with a luggage tag, handle fastener (poignet), and a padlock. If a dust bag or keys are included, they will be explicitly listed in the product information.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Keep the natural Vachetta leather away from water, oils and lotions to minimise watermarks and uneven darkening. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: The listing mentions patina, watermarks and scuffing on the leather. Is this normal? A: Yes. Vachetta is untreated leather that develops a honey patina and can show watermarks and scuffs over time. These characteristics are typical of vintage Louis Vuitton and are reflected in the stated condition grade.
Q: Can I attach a third-party strap to this bag? A: Only Bandoulière versions are built with strap D-rings. Adapting a handheld Keepall with aftermarket clips can stress the handles and is not recommended.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: France. This aligns with both the made-in stamp and the SP factory prefix in the date code.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is carefully inspected by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date code consistency. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further information on request.
