The lettering faded after washing at home. There's an overall sense of use, but the fabric is sturdy and stands on its own. There's a general "used" feel, but I think the washed look is nice. There are no unsightly stains or dirt, but the lettering is worn. A woman occasionally used this. It's excellent for holding documents due to its thickness, volume, and ease of carrying. ,,,,,, Louis Vuitton Museum Limited Edition Tote Bag Fondation Louis Vuitton Fondation Louis Vuitton Museum This is a limited-edition item sold only at the Louis Vuitton Museum in Paris.
