Q: What typically fits inside the Balenciaga The First Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 32 x 17 x 5 cm, this bag is best for daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet or card holder, keys, sunglasses, lip products and a few small personal items. It can also take slim extras like a small notebook or e-reader, but it is not designed for bulkier items such as a laptop or large bottle.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has dual top handles as well as a detachable shoulder strap, so it can be carried by hand or worn on the shoulder. With a strap drop of about 20 cm, it sits as a shoulder bag rather than a long crossbody style.
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.

It can also take slim extras like a small notebook or e-reader, but it is not designed for bulkier items such as a laptop or large bottle.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. This piece has dual top handles as well as a detachable shoulder strap, so it can be carried by hand or worn on the shoulder. With a strap drop of about 20 cm, it sits as a shoulder bag rather than a long crossbody style.
Q: What product information is included with this bag? A: The product information for this piece includes a matching leather-framed mirror and a detachable shoulder strap. If a dust bag, box or authenticity card is not listed in the product information on this page, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: How does The First compare with the Balenciaga City bag? A: The First is the more compact, slimmer member of Balenciaga's classic Motorcycle family. It offers the same signature whipstitched handles, front zip pocket and relaxed shape as the City, but in a neater format that works especially well for day-to-evening use.
Q: Is the distressed leather meant to look worn? A: Yes. Balenciaga's Motorcycle bags are known for their soft, intentionally distressed leather and aged hardware, so a slightly lived-in look is part of the design. On this specific vintage piece, the pre-loved character is more noticeable because the leather shows some fading, the handles have darkened, and the corners show scuffing.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: It is listed in Very Good condition overall. The exterior shows signs of wear with some fading, darkening on the handles and scuffing on the corners, while the interior shows light traces of use. The hardware has fading and discolouration consistent with age and wear.
Q: Does the bag have useful pockets and a secure closure? A: Yes. It features a top zip closure, one external zip pocket and one internal zip pocket, which makes it practical for organising smaller essentials and keeping valuables secure.
Q: How should I care for vintage Balenciaga leather? A: Handle it gently and avoid prolonged exposure to heat, direct sunlight, rain and moisture. Clean the surface with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid harsh chemicals, and store it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag so the shape is maintained. Because the leather is soft and distressed, overfilling can exaggerate creasing and corner wear.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: This listing does not specify a serial number. On Balenciaga Motorcycle bags, identifying details are usually found on the interior leather tag or metal plaque rather than as a date code in the style used by some other maisons, so please contact us if you would like that checked before purchase.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by specialists using construction, leather, hardware, stamp and interior tag details. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell, and we are happy to provide additional product information on request.
