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 size is this belt and how does Louis Vuitton sizing work? A: This belt is size 80. Louis Vuitton belt sizes are measured from the buckle to the middle hole, giving you a few centimetres of adjustment either side. A size 80 typically suits around a 75–85 cm waist (about 30–33 inches), depending on whether you wear it at the waist or on the hips. For hip wear, many people choose one size up; the best method is to measure a belt you already use from the buckle to the hole you use most.
Q: What is the belt’s width and will it fit my belt loops? A: The strap is approximately 3 cm wide. This width fits most trouser belt loops and many jeans. If your denim has very wide loops, a 4 cm belt may fill them better; otherwise, 3 cm offers a versatile, smart look for tailoring and casual wear alike.
Q: How do I reverse the belt between Monogram and black leather? A: This model is reversible. Simply detach or rotate the LV buckle mechanism, flip the strap to the other side (Monogram canvas or black leather), and reattach the buckle. No tools are usually required—avoid forcing any parts and ensure the prong aligns cleanly with the holes before wearing.
Q: Can I swap the LV buckle with other Louis Vuitton buckles? A: The LV logo buckle is removable for reversing. Swapping buckles is only advisable with Louis Vuitton buckles designed for the same strap width (3 cm) and the same attachment style. Mixing incompatible buckles can damage the strap or affect fit.
Q: What does the date code JJ1210 mean on this belt? A: Louis Vuitton used a week/year date code format from 2007 to around 2021. In that system, JJ1210 indicates production in the 11th week of 2020. The letters correspond to the workshop code. Note that since 2021 many LV items use internal microchips rather than visible date codes, and a date code alone is not proof of authenticity.
Q: What materials is it made from and how should I care for it? A: Monogram coated canvas with a black leather reverse and gold‑tone hardware. Wipe the canvas side with a slightly damp, lint‑free cloth and dry immediately. Keep away from alcohol‑based products, oils and solvents. Condition the leather side sparingly with a neutral leather cream when needed. Store the belt flat or hung, away from heat and direct sunlight, and avoid contact between the buckle and strap to minimise scratches.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: Very Good. There are scratches on the buckle and light signs of use on the strap. The interior side also shows light wear. Please review the photos for close‑ups before purchasing.
Q: What comes with this listing? A: No accessories are included with this piece. If an item such as a box or dust bag is not listed under Accessories, it is not included.
Q: Is this belt authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is thoroughly authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware and, where applicable, date codes. We are confident in the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details or images on request.
Q: Can extra holes be added or the belt shortened? A: Louis Vuitton boutiques generally do not add extra holes or alter belts, and policies can vary by location. If you need additional holes, a reputable cobbler can usually punch them to match the existing spacing; any modification is at the owner’s discretion and may affect future brand servicing. We do not recommend cutting this belt.
