Q: What size is the Louis Vuitton Thames GM Bag, and what typically fits inside? A: This bag measures approximately 40 x 23 x 6 cm, with a strap drop of 24 cm. The GM size is well suited to everyday essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch, and a compact tablet or paperback. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact dimensions of this item.
Q: Is the Thames GM comfortable to wear on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Thames GM is designed as a shoulder bag, and this example has a single adjustable flat shoulder strap with an approximately 24 cm drop, which generally allows comfortable shoulder wear for many users. Fit can vary depending on your frame and outerwear.
Q: What does GM mean in Louis Vuitton sizing? A: GM stands for Grand Modèle, which indicates the larger size in the model range. For the Thames, the GM offers more room than the smaller PM version while still keeping a slim, easy-to-carry profile.

The Thames GM is designed as a shoulder bag, and this example has a single adjustable flat shoulder strap with an approximately 24 cm drop, which generally allows comfortable shoulder wear for many users. Fit can vary depending on your frame and outerwear.

Q: Does this bag close securely? A: Yes. According to the product information, this bag features a top zip closure, which helps keep belongings more secure than an open-top style and makes it practical for daily use.
Q: Does the inside have pockets? A: Yes. This bag has a red textile lining with two internal pockets, which are useful for organising smaller essentials such as cards, a phone, keys, or lipstick.
Q: What should I know about the condition of this specific bag? A: This item is rated in very good condition. The exterior shows wear and cracking on the strap, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. As this is a vintage piece, these signs of wear are consistent with careful previous use and should be reviewed in the photos and condition notes before purchase.
Q: What does the date code SP0039 mean? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this period indicate the place and time of production rather than serving as a unique serial number. The code SP0039 corresponds to production in France in the 3rd week of 2009, which aligns well with a vintage Thames GM from this era.
Q: How should I care for Damier Ebene canvas and leather trim? A: For regular care, gently wipe the coated canvas with a soft damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils, perfume, alcohol-based products, or overfilling the bag. Because this item already shows wear and cracking on the strap, it is best to avoid carrying excessive weight and to store it in a cool, dry place when not in use.
Q: Does this bag come with any extras? A: No. The product information states that this item comes with no additional inclusions. If anything is not listed in the product information, it should be assumed not to be included.
Q: How can I know this bag is authentic? A: At A Retro Tale, pre-owned luxury items are vetted for authenticity by specialists. For Louis Vuitton bags, authentication is typically based on a combination of details such as materials, construction, hardware, stamps, and date code format rather than on the date code alone.
