This Balenciaga Duty Free Tote Bag in black leather with an embossed logo and gold-tone hardware offers a sleek everyday look. In very good condition, it features dual chain shoulder straps, an open top, and a tonal canvas-lined interior with one zipped pocket. Ideal for daily outings, shopping trips or light workdays, it brings understated designer polish to your routine.
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 this Balenciaga Duty Free Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 34 x 27 x 14 cm, it is a practical large tote for daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, sunglasses, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, a water bottle and documents. Many slim 13-inch laptops may fit based on the listed measurements, but we recommend comparing your device to the bag dimensions before purchasing.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. This style features dual chain shoulder straps and a strap drop of approximately 27 cm, so it is designed to sit on the shoulder comfortably for day-to-day use. As with most chain-handle totes, it may feel heavier if the bag is packed quite full.
Q: Does this tote close with a zip or fastening? A: No, this specific piece has an open top. That gives it a relaxed, easy-access feel, but it is less secure than a zipped tote, so we recommend keeping valuables in the internal zipped pocket.
Q: Does the inside have any pockets or compartments? A: Yes. The bag is lined in tonal canvas and has one internal zipped pocket, which is useful for smaller essentials you would like to keep separate.
Q: What material and details does this bag have? A: This piece is crafted in black leather with an embossed Balenciaga logo, finished with gold-tone hardware and dual chain shoulder straps. It is made in Italy and has a clean, structured tote silhouette.
Q: Is this a good everyday or work tote? A: Yes, it works well as an everyday tote thanks to its roomy shape, shoulder straps and simple open-top design. It suits daily essentials, shopping and light work carry particularly well. If you regularly carry heavier items, a fully zipped or more padded work bag may feel more supportive over long periods.
Q: What is the condition of this specific item? A: This pre-owned bag is in very good condition overall. There is scuffing at the corners, light traces of use inside, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches. Please review the product images as well for the best impression of its current condition.
Q: What is included with the bag? A: This item comes with a dust bag. Everything included with this purchase is listed in the product information, so if something is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How should I care for and store this leather tote? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, heavy rain and prolonged direct heat or sunlight. To help maintain its shape, store it in its dust bag with light stuffing when not in use, and avoid overfilling it as the corners are already showing light scuffing.
Q: How do you authenticate this Balenciaga bag? A: At A Retro Tale, every item is carefully checked by in-house experts using detailed inspections of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and other brand-specific details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
