Louis Vuitton Limited Edition Cup Sac Marin Bandiuliere Bag
Vintage Louis Vuitton Limited Edition Cup Sac Marin Bandoulière Bag - 857-28801
Perfect for weekend getaways and coastal escapes, this limited-edition Louis Vuitton Cup Sac Marin adds vintage sport-luxe flair to your travel edit. Easy to carry by shoulder or hand, it's ideal for regatta days and short trips.
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 is the Louis Vuitton Cup Sac Marin Bandoulière? A: It is a limited-edition sailor-style duffle created for Louis Vuitton’s America’s Cup partnerships in the 1990s. The Cup line features nautical motifs and coated/printed materials with natural vachetta leather trim, designed for travel and sport-inspired use.
Q: How big is this bag and what does it typically fit? A: This piece is generously sized at approximately 60 × 30 × 50 cm (see Measurements on this page). It comfortably holds a weekend’s clothing, trainers, toiletry bag, light outerwear, and tech accessories. Packing cubes help the tall cylindrical profile stay organised.
Q: Is it cabin carry‑on compliant? A: Generally no. Most airlines cap cabin bags around 56 × 45 × 25 cm (or 22 × 14 × 9 in). Given this bag’s dimensions, it usually exceeds standard carry‑on limits and is better checked or used for car/rail/yacht travel. Always confirm with your specific airline before flying.
Q: What materials is it made from and how should I care for them? A: The exterior is a printed, coated material (often described as vinyl/PVC or coated canvas) with natural vachetta leather trim and a textile lining. Wipe the coated exterior with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep vachetta away from water, oils, and hand sanitisers; avoid harsh cleaners and prolonged sunlight/heat. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape.
Q: The listing notes patina and light cracking on the leather. Is that normal and can it be improved? A: Vachetta leather naturally develops a honey-brown patina with use and time; water and dryness can also cause surface marks and, on vintage pieces, small cracks. Cracking is permanent, but gentle conditioning by a professional can improve suppleness and appearance. For routine care at home, use a clean dry cloth only; for any restoration, consult an expert.
Q: Does the bag come with a shoulder strap and how is it carried? A: Yes, this model features an adjustable rope-style shoulder strap and a top handle, so it can be carried on the shoulder or by hand. If you ever need strap servicing or hardware attention, Louis Vuitton offers repair evaluations, and reputable luxury repair ateliers can also assist.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing includes a padlock as stated under Accessories. Items such as keys, dust bag, or luggage tags are only included if specifically listed. If you would like us to confirm the contents again, please contact us before purchase.
Q: What does the code inside mean on vintage Louis Vuitton bags, and what about this piece’s numbers? A: Louis Vuitton historically used date codes (not unique serial numbers) indicating when and where a bag was made; formats evolved over the 1980s–2000s and often include factory letters plus digits. Some Louis Vuitton Cup pieces may also carry limited-edition numbering plates. A four‑digit number without letters can be era‑specific or an edition/production reference depending on placement and font. Our in‑house experts authenticate each item using multi‑point checks beyond any code alone and can share detailed photos on request.
Q: There is a light vintage smell noted inside. Any tips to reduce it? A: Air the bag in a cool, dry, shaded space with good ventilation, loosely stuffed with acid‑free tissue. Odour-absorbing sachets (bicarbonate or activated charcoal) can be placed nearby—not in direct contact with leather. Avoid perfumes or aggressive deodorising sprays, which can stain leather and lining.
