Very Good Condition
Elevate weekday meetings and dinner dates with this vintage Gucci GG Horsebit bag. Crafted in black GG canvas with leather trim and gold-toned hardware, it brings refined polish to smart-casual looks. The adjustable shoulder strap and signature Web with Horsebit detail make it a sophisticated choice from day to night.
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 are the dimensions and what does it fit day to day? A: The bag measures approximately 35 cm (W) × 26 cm (H) × 3 cm (D) with an adjustable shoulder drop around 21 cm. It fits an A4 document wallet, long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses and a slim cosmetics pouch. A slim 13-inch laptop or large tablet may fit, but due to the 3 cm profile, bulky cases or thick items are not recommended—please compare your device measurements with the figures above.
Q: Can I wear this crossbody? A: This vintage GG Horsebit style is designed primarily for shoulder carry. With an approximate 21 cm drop, it sits neatly under the arm and is generally too short for true crossbody on most frames.
Q: What is the Horsebit detail I see on the front? A: The Horsebit is Gucci’s signature double ring and bar motif, inspired by equestrian hardware. On this piece it appears on the front panel with a Web stripe, lending a classic House code to a versatile shoulder silhouette.
Q: What material is the exterior and how durable is it? A: The exterior is black GG canvas with black leather trim and gold‑toned metal hardware. Gucci’s GG canvas is known for being lightweight and durable for regular use, while the leather trim adds structure and a refined finish. As with all coated fabrics and leather, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and heat for best longevity.
Q: How should I care for it? A: Wipe the canvas and leather trim with a soft, dry cloth and avoid solvents, alcohol or abrasive cleaners. Allow any moisture to air‑dry naturally, then store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to help maintain its shape. Avoid overloading to protect the strap and seams.
Q: Does this item come with any extras? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this specific item, there are no extra items included.
Q: Is the hardware real gold? A: Gucci typically uses gold‑toned metal hardware rather than solid gold. On this bag the hardware presents bright and shiny with light surface scratches, consistent with the condition notes.
Q: How do Gucci serial numbers work, and will this help verify the bag? A: Many Gucci bags from the 1990s onward carry a two‑line number heat‑stamped on an interior leather tag; earlier vintage pieces may show different formats—or may lack a code altogether. These numbers are internal style/production codes rather than a public database entry, so they do not prove authenticity on their own. At A Retro Tale, each item is authenticated by experts using a multi‑point review of materials, stitching, hardware and stamps.
Q: Any tips for the fabric lining and keeping it fresh? A: Gently shake out debris and use a clean lint roller. For minor marks, dab with a barely damp, colour‑fast cloth and allow to air‑dry. To refresh odour, air the bag in a cool, dry place and consider a removable odour absorber placed near (not directly on) the lining—avoid scented sprays or harsh cleaners inside the bag.
