Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Epi Speedy 30?
A: As a medium top‑handle bag, it comfortably holds a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case, a 500 ml water bottle, compact umbrella, cosmetics pouch, and an A5 diary or small tablet (up to about 10–11 inches). Capacity varies with how you pack and whether you use an organiser. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for this specific piece (approx. 28 × 19 × 16 cm).

Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap or crossbody option?
A: This is the classic handheld Speedy 30, designed to be carried by its dual rolled handles (approx. 11 cm drop). It does not include a shoulder strap. For strap functionality, look for Speedy “Bandoulière” models, which are made with dedicated strap attachments.

Q: Can I add an aftermarket strap to the handles?
A: We do not recommend attaching a strap to the handle hardware, as it can place stress on the handle tabs and distort the bag over time. If you want a hands‑free option, a Bandoulière version is the safer choice.

Q: Will A4 documents or a 13‑inch laptop fit in the Speedy 30?
A: A4 papers may fit at a slight angle but may not remain crisp due to the curved zip opening. A 13‑inch laptop generally does not fit comfortably; consider a Speedy 35/40 or another work‑tote style if you regularly carry a laptop.

Q: What are the advantages of Louis Vuitton’s Epi leather?
A: Epi is a textured, dyed‑through leather known for its durability and resistance to surface scratches and light moisture. It keeps its shape well and is a great choice for daily use compared to softer, smoother leathers.

Q: How should I care for vintage Epi leather?
A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt; avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol‑based wipes, or oily conditioners. Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight and heat, and store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape. Allow wet surfaces to air‑dry naturally and avoid overloading the bag to limit creasing.

Q: The description notes small cracks along the handle—are these a concern?
A: Minor edge or surface cracks are a common sign of wear on well‑loved vintage leather. They don’t usually affect immediate use, but we recommend avoiding heavy loads and monitoring for progression. If desired, a specialist leather repair service can refinish or reinforce handle edges to prolong longevity.

Q: What does the date code SP1023 mean?
A: “SP” indicates a French workshop. For bags produced from 1990–2006, the first and third digits denote the month and the second and fourth the year. “1023” decodes to December 2003, which aligns with this piece being vintage.

Q: Are a padlock, keys or dust bag included?
A: This listing states “no accessories,” so items such as a padlock, keys, clochette or dust bag are not included unless explicitly mentioned under Accessories. Please contact us if you would like us to confirm what’s in the box before purchasing.

Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag?
A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps, hardware, and date codes. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
