Perfect for polished weekday commutes and city errands, the Louis Vuitton Hampstead PM in Damier Ebene adds timeless refinement to office ensembles. Its dual top handles and secure clasp keep essentials organised in the red Alcantara interior with zip and slip pockets, while gold-tone accents lend a sophisticated finish to meetings, lunches and after-work plans.
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 Damier Hampstead PM? A: As a compact tote, it comfortably carries daily essentials: a large smartphone (including most Pro/Max models), a continental wallet or cardholder, keys, slim sunglasses in a soft case, a small cosmetics pouch, and an A5 notebook/diary. A small water bottle and a compact tablet (e.g., iPad mini) usually fit. A4 documents do not generally lie flat in the PM size. Please refer to the Measurements on this page or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or laptop? A: Smaller tablets typically fit; larger tablets may be snug depending on case thickness and the clasped opening. Laptops are generally not suitable for the PM size. Compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements listed or contact us and we’ll perform a quick fit check for this bag.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder? Are the handles adjustable? Is there a crossbody strap? A: The Hampstead PM has dual top handles that are not adjustable; it’s designed for hand, crook‑of‑arm and, for many wearers, shoulder carry. The listed handle drop is approximately 18 cm. It does not include a crossbody strap. If you’d like us to advise how it sits on you, just ask and we’ll help.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: This model features a clasp closure that offers good day‑to‑day security while keeping the tote accessible. The interior is lined in red Alcantara and includes one zip pocket and two slip pockets. For commuting or travel, we recommend keeping the bag upright and placing small valuables in the zip pocket or an interior pouch.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece have? A: Damier Ebene coated canvas with brown leather trim, gold‑tone hardware, dual top handles and a red Alcantara lining. Our photos and description show the exact finish and details of this item.
Q: How should I care for Damier Ebene coated canvas, leather trim and Alcantara lining? A: Coated canvas is durable—wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. The dark Ebene leather trim is treated and more resilient than natural vachetta, but still avoid moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. For Alcantara, use a clean, soft brush or lint roller to lift dust; if lightly soiled, blot (don’t rub) with a barely damp cloth and allow to air‑dry away from heat. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid overfilling to preserve the shape and clasp alignment.
Q: Is the Hampstead PM still produced? A: The Hampstead line has been discontinued. The pre‑loved market is the best way to find specific sizes and canvases like the Damier Ebene PM.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and what does MI1058 mean? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton bags feature an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris”) with the country of origin. Older pieces typically include a date code, often on a small leather tab inside a pocket or along an interior seam; more recent releases may use an embedded microchip instead of a visible code. “MI” denotes a French factory; “MI1058” is the original date‑code format for this item. Placement can vary—contact us if you’d like close‑up photos for this specific piece.
Q: Where is this specific piece made? A: This item is stamped Made in France, consistent with the “MI” factory code noted above. Our listing and photos show the exact stamp and country of origin.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Accessories for this listing are noted under “Accessories.” This piece is offered with no accessories. If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date code/microchip and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
