Perfect for weekend escapes, road trips or overnight stays, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Keepall 50 brings effortless style to your journey while keeping your essentials neatly by your side.
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 Keepall 50? A: With an approx. 50 × 28 × 22 cm profile, it suits a long weekend: 2–3 outfits, a pair of shoes, toiletries, small tech and a 13–15 inch laptop in a padded sleeve. Capacity depends on how you pack—please see the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Is the Keepall 50 acceptable as cabin/hand luggage? A: The 50 is widely regarded as a cabin‑friendly size and is designed for overhead bins on many airlines. Policies vary by carrier and aircraft, so please check your airline’s current hand‑luggage limits before flying.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: This piece is the classic hand‑held Keepall 50, carried by the dual rolled leather handles. The strap is featured on the Bandoulière versions; the classic Keepall does not include a detachable strap or strap D‑rings.
Q: What is the difference between the Keepall 50 and 55? A: The number reflects the bag’s length in centimetres. The 55 offers slightly more capacity but is closer to many airlines’ maximum cabin size. The 50 is a touch more compact and easier to stow while still generous for weekend travel.
Q: What does the date code SD0973 mean? A: SD indicates production in France. With the four‑digit format used in the 1990–2006 era, the first and third digits show the month and the second and fourth digits show the year—so 0 and 7 = July, 9 and 3 = 1993. Note that date codes are not unique identifiers and are not proof of authenticity on their own.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Keep Vachetta leather dry and away from oils and dyes; water may leave marks and the leather will naturally develop a honey patina over time. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from heat and direct sunlight.
Q: Does the Keepall 50 have interior pockets or a laptop compartment? A: This vintage Keepall 50 has a single, open main compartment with brown textile lining and no dedicated laptop pocket. We recommend using pouches or an organiser and a padded sleeve for a laptop.
Q: Are padlock keys included and how do I use the lock? A: Everything included is listed under the product information. If keys are listed, they will accompany the padlock. To secure the bag, align the two zipper pulls and lock them together with the padlock.
Q: Can the handles be worn on the shoulder? A: The handle drop is approximately 10 cm, designed for hand carry or the crook of the arm. For hands‑free wear, consider Bandoulière versions that include a shoulder strap.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by our in‑house specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, heat‑stamps and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional details on request.
