Q: How big is the Manhattan GM and what typically fits inside? A: On this piece the approximate measurements are 38 × 23 × 13 cm with a handle drop of about 16 cm. It comfortably holds A4 documents, a long wallet, phone, small cosmetics pouch, sunglasses case and a compact umbrella. A slim 13-inch laptop or large tablet may fit, but the structured shape and zip opening mean it is best to compare your device to the measurements on this page before purchase.
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: How big is the Manhattan GM and what typically fits inside? A: On this piece the approximate measurements are 38 × 23 × 13 cm with a handle drop of about 16 cm. It comfortably holds A4 documents, a long wallet, phone, small cosmetics pouch, sunglasses case and a compact umbrella. A slim 13-inch laptop or large tablet may fit, but the structured shape and zip opening mean it is best to compare your device to the measurements on this page before purchase.
Q: Is the Manhattan GM still in production? A: No, this style is considered discontinued and is now found on the pre-loved market rather than Louis Vuitton’s current range. Availability is therefore limited to authenticated vintage and second-hand pieces.
Q: Can the Manhattan GM be worn on the shoulder? A: It is primarily designed for hand or crook-of-arm carry. Some users can wear the GM high on the shoulder thanks to the longer handles, but it may not be comfortable for extended periods and can slip, especially over bulkier clothing.
Q: Is the Manhattan GM heavy? A: It is heavier than many canvas handbags due to its substantial hardware and dual front pockets. If you are weight-sensitive, bear this in mind when packing.
Q: How do the front pockets work and what are they best for? A: The two front pockets close with push-lock clasps and are ideal for slim items you need quickly, such as keys, passes or lip balm. Avoid overfilling to protect the locks and help maintain the bag’s structure.
Q: What is the interior like? A: The bag has a beige Alcantara microfibre lining with one interior pocket and a secure top zip, complemented by a decorative buckle strap across the top.
Q: Where is the date code and what does it mean? A: On Manhattan bags with Alcantara lining, the date code is typically stamped on the lining or on a small leather tab inside the bag or pocket. The code indicates when and where the bag was made, but by itself is not proof of authenticity; codes can also fade with age or cleaning.
Q: How should I care for the vachetta leather and canvas? A: Monogram coated canvas is durable and can be wiped with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Vachetta leather is untreated and will naturally develop a patina; avoid water, oils and prolonged sunlight or heat. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help it keep its shape.
Q: What exactly is included with this item? A: Everything that comes with the bag is listed in the product information on this page. If a dust bag, box or other item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of this specific piece? A: External: good with a developed patina on the vachetta, some watermarks and corner scuffing. Internal: good with some stains and a pen mark, and a slight vintage smell. Hardware: shiny with light scratches. Please review the photos for full details.
