Carried by its dual rolled handles, it moves from boot to hotel lobby with ease, elevating off-duty denim or a smart travel ensemble with classic LV elegance.
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 Louis Vuitton Sac Souple 55? A: As a generously sized weekender (approx. 55 × 30 × 34 cm), it comfortably holds 2–4 outfits, a pair of shoes, a toiletry bag, and larger essentials like a laptop in a padded sleeve. Capacity varies with how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Is the Sac Souple 55 carry-on compliant? A: The 55 cm length aligns with the cabin-baggage limit used by many airlines. Depth allowances can be stricter and vary by carrier and aircraft, though the soft-sided construction can compress slightly. We recommend checking your airline’s rules before travelling.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap or D-rings? A: The Sac Souple 55 was designed primarily as a handheld Boston-style weekender with dual rolled leather handles. Shoulder-strap attachments are not standard on this model, and this item is offered without a strap. The handle drop is approximately 12 cm.
Q: How does the Sac Souple differ from the Keepall? A: The Sac Souple has a boxier, more rectangular profile with slightly longer flat handles, while the Keepall is rounder and more duffel-like. Keepall Bandoulière versions include a shoulder strap; the Sac Souple is generally hand-carried.
Q: When was the Sac Souple produced, and is it discontinued? A: The Sac Souple line has vintage origins and was widely produced through the 1980s–1990s. It is now discontinued, so pieces are available only on the pre-owned market.
Q: Where is the date code and what does it mean? A: On vintage Louis Vuitton, the date code is typically stamped on a small leather tab along an interior seam or near the zip. It indicates place and date of manufacture; it is not a unique serial number. On older pieces the code can be faint or absent due to wear.
Q: How durable are Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: The coated Monogram canvas is hard-wearing and wipeable. The natural Vachetta leather trim is untreated, so it develops a honey colour patina and can show watermarks, dryness or hairline cracking over time. Avoid rain, alcohol/alkaline cleaners and prolonged sun; use a leather-care product formulated for Vachetta sparingly and store stuffed in a breathable dust bag.
Q: The listing notes a vintage odour. Can it be reduced safely? A: Yes. Air the bag in a dry, shaded place with good airflow and place odour-absorbing sachets (activated charcoal or baking soda in a breathable pouch) inside for a few days. Avoid perfumes or heavy spraying. For persistent odours, consider a professional bag spa.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is detailed in the product information on this page. If an item such as a dust bag, padlock or keys is not listed there, it is not included with this purchase.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this piece? A: Every item is examined by our in-house specialists using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date code consistency. We stand behind the authenticity of all products we sell and can share further product information on request.
