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 Popincourt Long? A: The Popincourt Long features a distinctive elongated wedge shape (approx. 31 × 15 × 13 cm) that comfortably holds daily essentials. You can fit a continental (long) wallet, a large smartphone, keys, sunglasses in a soft case, and a small cosmetics pouch. While the base is wide, the triangular top tapers, so very bulky items may not sit flat. Please refer to the Measurements on this page or contact us for a tailored fit check.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and can I wear it crossbody? A: Yes, the bag features a flat Vachetta leather strap that is adjustable. With a drop ranging approximately 44–56 cm, it is designed to be worn comfortably on the shoulder or as a crossbody bag for most wearers (sitting somewhat high on the hip). We recommend checking the specific strap measurements listed to ensure it suits your preferred carry style.
Q: What makes the Popincourt design unique? A: This model is celebrated for its architectural triangle silhouette and the signature golden orb (bauble) zipper pulls. These weighted brass spheres not only add a playful, jewellery-like accent but also make the zip-top closure easy to operate.
Q: Does it have exterior pockets? A: Yes, the Popincourt Long is designed with two convenient slip pockets located on the triangular side gussets. They are ideal for storing small, quick-access items like keys, parking tickets, or a slim cardholder.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: The Monogram coated canvas is robust and water-resistant—simply wipe with a soft, slightly damp cloth. The trim and strap are crafted from natural Vachetta cowhide, which darkens to a honey patina over time and is sensitive to water and oils. Avoid rain and direct contact with hand creams; if the leather gets wet, blot (do not rub) immediately with a soft, absorbent cloth.
Q: Is this model still produced? A: The Popincourt Long (M40008) is a discontinued vintage style, originally released in the mid-2000s. It is distinct from the handheld 'Popincourt' and the vertical tote 'Popincourt Haut'. Its availability is now exclusive to the pre-loved market.
Q: Where are the date code and brand markings located? A: You will typically find the date code stamped on a small leather tab inside the interior patch pocket or along a seam of the canvas lining. The bag also features a "LOUIS VUITTON Paris made in France" heat stamp on the leather trim (usually near the strap attachment). As a vintage piece, the date code format will help identify its production week and year.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi-point vetting by our in-house experts. We examine the Vachetta leather quality, the weight and finish of the brass hardware (especially the unique zipper pulls), stitching consistency, heat stamps, and the date code to ensure they align with Louis Vuitton’s standards for the production era.
Q: What accessories come with this item? A: Any included items such as a dust bag or box are listed under the “Accessories” section on this page. If an accessory is not mentioned there, it is not included—please feel free to contact us if you need confirmation.
