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 Epi Keepall 55? A: With approximate measurements of 56 × 25 × 30 cm, this weekender comfortably holds several outfits, shoes, a toiletry bag, and larger essentials such as a laptop in a sleeve. Packing capacity varies by how you organise your items—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Is the Keepall 55 carry-on compliant for flights? A: The 55 size is generally considered cabin‑friendly with many airlines because its length is around 55–56 cm. Policies differ by carrier and aircraft, so we recommend checking your specific airline’s rules before travelling.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: This is the classic handheld Keepall 55, designed to be carried by its dual rolled handles (approx. 10 cm handle drop). It does not include a shoulder strap; that feature belongs to the Keepall Bandoulière versions.
Q: Can I add a strap later? A: Classic Keepall models typically do not have the D‑rings needed to attach a shoulder strap securely. If you want hands‑free carry, look for a Keepall Bandoulière 55, which is made with strap attachments from the factory.
Q: What does the date code SP0975 mean on this piece? A: SP indicates it was made in France. For the 1990–2006 format, the first and third digits show the month and the second and fourth show the year, so 0‑7‑9‑5 decodes to July 1995.
Q: What is special about Epi leather? A: Epi is a textured, dyed‑through cowhide introduced in the 1980s. It is known for its structured feel, scratch resistance, and enhanced water resistance versus many smooth leathers—ideal qualities for a travel bag.
Q: How should I care for vintage Epi leather? A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh cleaners, oils, and prolonged exposure to heat or direct sunlight. Condition sparingly with a neutral leather cream if the leather feels dry, and seek a professional for deep cleaning or colour touch‑ups.
Q: What is the interior like on this bag? A: This specific piece has a green suede lining and one large main compartment, making it easy to pack and access travel essentials. Take care to keep liquids capped and use pouches to protect the lining.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This bag comes with a dust bag, luggage tag, and padlock. Keys or other accessories are not included unless explicitly listed—please see the Accessories section for the full contents.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item undergoes multi‑point inspection by our in‑house experts, including materials, stitching, heat stamps, hardware, and date codes. We stand by the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional details on request.
