Perfect for polished office days and city commutes, the Louis Vuitton Monogram Kimono MM adds refined structure to workwear while carrying everyday essentials with ease. Its monogram canvas and red leather bring a confident pop to smart-casual brunches or post-work dinners, making it a versatile choice from desk to dinner.
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 Kimono MM? A: With approximate measurements of 41.5 × 28 × 14 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a notebook/diary, a water bottle, and daily essentials. A 13–14 inch laptop fits in the open sections; a slim 15 inch can fit without a bulky sleeve, but always compare your device to the measurements for best results.
Q: Will my laptop fit in the centre zipped compartment? A: The centre zipped compartment is great for a tablet, small laptop, or valuables. Most larger laptops are better carried in one of the open sections for ease and space.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap? A: The Kimono MM is a handheld/shoulder tote without a detachable strap. Its dual rolled leather handles have an approximate 18 cm drop, allowing hand, crook-of-arm or shoulder carry depending on your build and clothing layers.
Q: How is the interior organised? A: The interior features two open sections separated by a central zipped compartment, plus additional slip pockets for small items. The lining is a soft, suede-like microfibre for a refined feel.
Q: How does the bag close at the top? A: It has an open top that secures with a clasp, balancing quick access with a tidy, structured silhouette.
Q: What are the materials and hardware? A: It combines Louis Vuitton’s Monogram coated canvas with smooth calf leather panels and gold‑tone hardware. This piece has a red microfibre-suede interior and protective base studs.
Q: Is it suitable for work or commuting? A: Yes. The structured shape, centre divider, and generous capacity make it a smart choice for documents, a laptop or tablet, and everyday office essentials.
Q: Any care tips for the canvas and red leather? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid harsh cleaners and alcohol. Keep the leather away from prolonged moisture and dark denim to prevent colour transfer, and store the bag stuffed, upright, in its dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat.
Q: What does the date code FL1166 indicate? A: FL denotes a French workshop. With this code format, the digits indicate the 16th week of 2016, meaning the piece was made in France around April 2016.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This listing includes a dust bag. Everything included is always detailed in the Accessories section.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks across materials, construction, stamps/date codes, and hardware. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece and can provide additional details on request.
