An elegant choice for smart dinners or gallery openings, this Gucci Dionysus Hobo Bag in brown suede with black leather trim lends refined texture to day-to-night looks. The iconic tiger head buckle and antique gold-tone hardware add subtle glamour, while the adjustable shoulder strap ensures effortless carry from commute to cocktails.
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 in the Gucci Dionysus Hobo Bag (Medium)? A: With approximate measurements of 29 × 24 × 4 cm, it comfortably carries a smartphone, compact wallet, keys, a slim sunglasses case, and small daily essentials such as a card holder or lipstick. The streamlined 4 cm depth keeps the profile sleek, so we recommend avoiding bulky water bottles or large cosmetic pouches.
Q: Can this hobo be worn crossbody? A: It is designed primarily for shoulder carry. This example has a single adjustable leather shoulder strap with an approximate 22 cm drop, which allows short‑to‑mid shoulder wear rather than crossbody length.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a strap with a magnetic fastening beneath the signature tiger head detail. This provides quick access while keeping contents closed during normal day‑to‑day use.
Q: What does the tiger head buckle signify? A: The tiger head is the hallmark of the Dionysus line, referencing the myth of Dionysus crossing a river on a tiger. It is a key design element of the collection and part of the bag’s enduring appeal.
Q: What materials is this piece made from? A: Brown suede with black leather trim and antique gold‑tone hardware. Inside, there is a black GG monogram fabric lining with one main compartment. Please refer to the product photographs for the interior layout.
Q: How should I care for the suede and leather trim? A: Keep the bag away from rain, humidity, and prolonged direct sunlight. After use, gently wipe leather parts with a soft dry cloth, and lightly brush the suede with a suede brush to refresh the nap. Avoid harsh cleaners or protective sprays unless recommended by a professional. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain shape.
Q: Will an A4 document or tablet fit? A: Slim A5 notebooks and e‑readers typically fit, but A4 sheets (21 × 29.7 cm) are a tight fit in height and may not sit flat due to the bag’s curved hobo profile and 4 cm depth. We recommend folding documents or using a smaller notepad.
Q: Is the Dionysus Hobo still in production? A: The Dionysus line has been part of Gucci collections since 2015, with materials and silhouettes varying by season. Hobo versions appear periodically; availability can differ from current boutique offerings. This is a pre‑owned piece offered by A Retro Tale.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If an item such as a dust bag or care card is not stated there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item we sell undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, and serial details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items and can share further product information on request.
