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 Monogram Président? A: With approximate external measurements of 44 × 35 × 11.5 cm, it comfortably holds A4/letter documents, most 13–15" laptops in a slim sleeve, a charger, notebook/diary and small essentials. As a hard‑sided case, capacity is structured rather than flexible—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Is the Président suitable as airline cabin baggage? A: Its footprint falls within the hand‑luggage size limits of many airlines. Weight allowances and specific dimensions do vary by carrier and aircraft, so we recommend checking your airline’s rules before you fly.
Q: Does this briefcase come with a shoulder strap? A: No. The Président is a hard‑sided briefcase designed to be carried by its single top handle and does not feature strap attachments.
Q: Are keys included for the S‑lock on this piece? A: This item is listed with no accessories, so keys are not included. The case closes securely without locking; a key is only needed if you wish to lock the S‑lock. For lock service or replacement keys, availability varies by region—Louis Vuitton boutiques or reputable specialists may be able to assist after assessing the piece.
Q: What does the date code AS1907 mean? A: On vintage Louis Vuitton (1990–2006), two letters indicate the country and four digits indicate month/year. ‘AS’ denotes France; the first and third digits show the month (10), and the second and fourth show the year (97). AS1907 therefore indicates French manufacture in October 1997.
Q: How is the Président constructed? A: It is a structured, hard‑sided briefcase in Monogram coated canvas with leather trim, finished with brass hardware. It features a central S‑lock with two trunk latches and a leather‑lined interior with document compartments—robust and more structured (and heavier) than soft briefcases.
Q: How should I care for the canvas and leather handle? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately; avoid harsh cleaners and solvents. The natural vachetta leather handle will darken over time; keep it away from water and oils, and condition sparingly with a neutral product only when the leather feels dry. Store the case loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct heat and sunlight.
Q: How do I look after the brass hardware? A: Gently buff with a dry, soft cloth after use. If tarnish appears, use a lightly damp cloth with a drop of mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive metal polishes that can strip the finish; for heavy oxidation, seek professional care.
Q: What’s included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories. If an item such as keys, a dust bag or an ID tag is not listed, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is verified by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware, date code and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
