Q: What are the key features and size of the Pochette Métis in Monogram Empreinte?
A: This MM version measures approximately 25 × 19 × 7 cm and features a single top handle, a detachable and adjustable shoulder strap, a secure S-lock closure, three interior compartments, and an exterior zipped pocket. The strap drop adjusts to roughly 48–55 cm for shoulder or crossbody wear.

Q: What typically fits inside?
A: Daily essentials such as a long wallet, smartphone (up to about 6.7 inches), keys, sunglasses, and a small notebook or compact fit comfortably. An iPad mini can fit snugly if slimly cased; A4 documents do not fit. For best organisation, place bulkier items in the middle compartment to help maintain the bag’s shape.

Q: Is Empreinte leather durable and how should I care for it?
A: Empreinte is a grained cowhide leather that softens slightly with wear while holding structure. Keep it away from water, oils, and prolonged sunlight/heat; avoid contact with dark or non-colourfast fabrics to minimise colour transfer, especially on lighter shades. Wipe with a clean, light-coloured cloth and store stuffed in a breathable dust bag when not in use.

Q: How much does the bag weigh?
A: The Empreinte Pochette Métis is around 0.8 kg empty. Actual weight can vary slightly depending on the specific edition and strap setting.

Q: Is the S-lock and hardware prone to scratches?
A: Light hairline scratches on the gold-tone hardware are normal with use. Avoid abrasive surfaces and harsh polishes; a soft microfibre cloth can gently buff surface marks. Louis Vuitton offers repair services should you wish to refresh hardware in future.

Q: Does this bag have a date code or a microchip?
A: Depending on the year of manufacture, it may have either a traditional date code or an embedded NFC microchip (Louis Vuitton transitioned to microchips around March 2021). As this is a vintage piece, please refer to the product information or contact us for the specific stamping details for this item.

Q: What is included with this item?
A: This piece includes a detachable shoulder strap. The contents are exactly as shown and listed under product information; if an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.

Q: Where was this piece made?
A: The product information for this specific item states France. Louis Vuitton also manufactures Pochette Métis models in Spain, Italy, and the United States.

Q: What is the condition of this particular bag?
A: Very good overall. There is visible scuffing on the corners, light signs of use inside, and scratches/dullness on the hardware. Please review the photos for a close-up view.

Q: How do you authenticate this bag?
A: Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi-point authentication by our in-house experts, assessing materials, stitching, stamps, hardware, and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details on request.
