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 is the Louis Vuitton Monogram Laptop Case? A: It is a slim, zip‑around laptop sleeve crafted from Louis Vuitton’s signature Monogram coated canvas with gold‑tone hardware and a soft brown textile lining. Designed for documents and slim laptops, it features an L‑zip closure for easy access and a refined, professional look.
Q: Will it fit my 15‑inch laptop? A: Please compare your device’s actual dimensions with the sleeve’s measurements (approximately 34 x 24 x 1 cm). Internal clearance is slightly less than the external measurements due to seams and lining. Because “15‑inch” refers to a diagonal screen size and devices vary by bezel and thickness, many slim 13–14‑inch laptops and tablets fit comfortably, while some 15‑inch models may be too large. Measure your device (width, height, and thickness) and allow a few millimetres of margin before purchasing.
Q: Is the sleeve padded and does it protect against drops? A: The soft textile lining helps protect against scratches and light scuffs, but the sleeve offers minimal impact cushioning. It is not designed for heavy drop or shock protection. If you commute extensively, consider using a slim protective insert or case inside the sleeve for added padding.
Q: Is Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas waterproof? A: Monogram coated canvas is durable and water‑resistant, but not fully waterproof. Light rain can usually be wiped away; avoid soaking or prolonged exposure to moisture. Dry with a soft cloth if wet and keep away from excessive heat or direct sunlight.
Q: How should I care for and clean the sleeve? A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol‑based wipes, and abrasive cleaners. Keep the lining free of debris to prevent surface scratches to your device. Store flat in a cool, dry place and avoid colour transfer by keeping it away from dark denim or dyed materials when damp.
Q: Does it have pockets or a strap? A: This model is a streamlined sleeve with a single main compartment and no strap attachments. Please review the photos and description to see the interior; this listing includes no additional accessories.
Q: What does the code TJ0168 mean? A: Louis Vuitton used alphanumeric date codes on many items up to around 2021. “TJ” indicates a French factory, and “0168” decodes to week 06 of 2018. Date codes are not unique serial numbers and, on their own, do not authenticate an item. A Retro Tale performs rigorous multi‑point authentication on every piece we sell.
Q: Will it fit documents or a tablet? A: Yes. A4 documents (21 x 29.7 cm) and most large tablets (including many 12.9‑inch models) typically fit within the stated dimensions. As always, compare your device or notebook size to the sleeve’s measurements to be sure.
Q: Can Louis Vuitton repair this item (zip/glazing)? A: Louis Vuitton offers repairs on authentic items on a case‑by‑case basis via their boutiques; costs and eligibility vary. Cracked canvas is generally not repairable. We recommend consulting your local LV store for an assessment and avoiding third‑party alterations that might affect future brand service or resale value.
Q: Does this pre‑owned sleeve come with the original box or dust bag? A: No. This listing is noted as “no accessories.” Please rely on the Accessories section and the product photos for exactly what is included.
