Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Epi Soufflot? A: The Soufflot is a practical medium-sized barrel bag (approximately 31 cm wide, 16 cm high and 15 cm deep). Its cylindrical but structured shape accommodates daily essentials such as a large smartphone, a continental wallet, a cosmetics pouch, keys and sunglasses in a soft case. The included detachable pochette is perfect for smaller items like lipsticks or loose change.
Q: Can I wear this bag on the shoulder? A: The dual flat leather straps have a drop of approximately 16 cm. This design is primarily intended for carrying by hand or in the crook of the arm. While it may fit snugly on the shoulder for some wearers (resembling a high “baguette” style fit), it is generally too tight to be worn comfortably over thick coats or jackets.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a full-length top zip closure, ensuring your belongings stay secure while you are on the move. The interior also typically includes a slip pocket for better organisation.
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.

While it may fit snugly on the shoulder for some wearers (resembling a high “baguette” style fit), it is generally too tight to be worn comfortably over thick coats or jackets.
Q: How does the Soufflot differ from the Louis Vuitton Papillon? A: While both feature a barrel silhouette, the Soufflot is more structured with a flat bottom and sides, allowing it to stand upright more easily than the softer, rounder Papillon. The Soufflot typically features flat straps (versus the Papillon’s rolled handles) and is most famous for being crafted in Epi leather, giving it a slightly more formal and polished appearance.
Q: What is Epi leather? A: Epi leather is one of Louis Vuitton’s most durable and distinct materials. It is a pigmented, textured leather featuring a unique horizontal ripple pattern. It is known for being water-resistant, scratch-resistant and structured, making it an excellent choice for daily use as it holds its shape well over time.
Q: Does this bag come with the matching pochette? A: Yes, this specific listing includes the matching detachable pochette (mini pouch), which can be clipped to the D-ring inside the bag or used separately. Please verify the “Accessories” section on this page to confirm all included items for this specific piece.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a full-length top zip closure, ensuring your belongings stay secure while you are on the move. The interior also typically includes a slip pocket for better organisation.
Q: How should I care for the Epi leather? A: Epi leather is low-maintenance. To clean it, simply wipe the surface gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, creams or oils, as these can dull the finish. Store the bag upright in its dust bag when not in use to maintain its structured shape.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts. We perform multi-point checks on materials, stitching, hardware, date codes and overall construction to ensure authenticity. We stand behind the genuineness of all items we sell.
