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 fits inside the Louis Vuitton Monogram Trotteur? A: The Trotteur is a compact crossbody designed for daily essentials. It typically holds a smartphone, a compact wallet or cardholder, keys, and small cosmetics like lipstick. While a slim long wallet (such as a Sarah wallet) can fit, the bag’s tapered ‘camera bag’ silhouette and zip opening make it a snug fit; we generally recommend using smaller leather goods for easier access. Please refer to the Measurements on this page or contact us for tailored fit advice for this exact piece.
Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable and can I wear it crossbody? A: Yes, the Trotteur features a fixed, adjustable Vachetta leather strap. It is designed specifically as a crossbody bag, with a strap drop that typically allows it to sit comfortably on the hip. You can adjust the buckle to shorten it for shoulder wear if preferred.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a secure zip-top closure that runs across the width of the bag, keeping your belongings safe. Inside, there is an additional zipped pocket for storing smaller valuables.
Q: Is the Trotteur still produced? A: No, the Louis Vuitton Trotteur has been discontinued for some time. It is now a sought-after vintage piece, beloved for its unique slanted shape and practical, hands-free design.
Q: How should I care for the Vachetta leather base and strap? A: This model features a full Vachetta leather base and strap. Vachetta is untreated cowhide that is sensitive to water and oils. Avoid placing the bag on damp or dirty surfaces to protect the base. If it gets wet, blot gently (do not rub) with a soft, dry, light-coloured cloth and allow it to air-dry. Over time, the leather will develop a rich honey patina, which is a characteristic of authentic vintage LV.
Q: Where can I find the date code on this bag? A: On the Trotteur, the date code is typically stamped on a small leather tab inside the internal zipped pocket or embossed directly along the interior seam. We can provide close-up photos of the code for this specific item upon request.
Q: What materials is this bag made from? A: It is crafted from Louis Vuitton’s durable Monogram coated canvas with natural Vachetta leather trim, base, and strap. The hardware is brass, and the interior is lined with a brown canvas textile.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Any included accessories (such as a dust bag or box) are explicitly listed under the “Accessories” section on this page. If an item is not mentioned there, it is not included. Feel free to contact us if you need confirmation.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date codes, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to answer any specific questions you may have.
