Perfect for hands-free days, this vintage Louis Vuitton phone strap suits city breaks, festivals and weekend errands. The camel Vachetta tone elevates both casual denim and sharp tailoring, adding understated polish while keeping your phone close at hand.
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: How does this Louis Vuitton phone strap attach to my phone? A: The strap uses a T-bar clasp that clips onto a small tether tab/insert. To use, place a universal tether tab between your phone and a full-coverage case, feed its loop out through the charging-port opening and attach the clasp. A tether tab is not included unless stated in the product information.
Q: Is it compatible with my iPhone or Android case? A: The strap works with most smartphones when used with a closed-bottom, full-coverage case and a tether tab. Slim bumper or open-bottom cases may not secure the tab properly. Always follow your tab maker’s instructions and test the connection before wear.
Q: Can I use wireless charging or MagSafe with a tether tab fitted? A: Many ultra-thin, non-metal tether tabs are designed not to interfere with charging. Some thicker or metal tabs can reduce charging efficiency. If in doubt, remove the strap and test your setup; discontinue wireless charging if heat or misalignment occurs.
Q: How long is the strap and how can I wear it? A: The strap is approximately 100 cm long and about 1 cm wide, with buckle adjustment. Wear it crossbody, on the shoulder or around the neck depending on your preferred drop. To check the fit, measure a strap you already find comfortable against 100 cm.
Q: What does the date code TH1021 mean? A: TH indicates a French workshop. For items from 1990–2006, the first and third digits show the month and the second and fourth digits show the year. TH1021 decodes to December 2001, made in France.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather? A: Vachetta is natural, untreated and absorbent; it will develop a honey patina with time. Keep it away from water, oils and dark denim transfer, wipe with a soft dry cloth after use, avoid harsh cleaners, and store in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight. A specialist leather conditioner can be used sparingly when the leather feels dry.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this listing, the product information notes a box and dust bag. If a tether tab or phone insert is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition? A: Very good overall with light signs of use. The leather shows light wear consistent with careful use; the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review all photos for close-ups before purchasing.
Q: How do you authenticate this piece? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, date code, and hardware, supported by industry-standard tools. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide further details on request.
Q: Will this strap damage my phone case? A: When used correctly with a compatible tether tab and a good-quality full-coverage case, the load is spread to minimise stress. As with any strap system, avoid sharp pulls and inspect the tab and case regularly; replace worn parts promptly.
