Ideal for weekend city breaks and polished daily outings, this vintage Gucci Ophidia Boston bag in black suede with leather trim, gold‑toned hardware and the signature green‑red Web stripe adds refined ease. Dual rolled handles and a detachable shoulder strap offer flexible carry, while the zip‑top and lined interior keep essentials secure from brunch to travel.
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 fits inside the Gucci Web Ophidia Boston Bag? A: This Medium-sized Boston bag (approx. 32 x 16 x 11 cm) features a classic barrel silhouette. It is spacious enough for daily essentials such as a large smartphone, a continental wallet, a cosmetics pouch, keys and sunglasses. While it can accommodate a small tablet (like an iPad Mini) or a paperback book, the low profile (16 cm height) makes it unsuitable for laptops or A4 documents.
Q: Can I wear this bag crossbody? A: Yes, this model includes a detachable and adjustable leather shoulder strap with a drop of approximately 48 cm. This length allows most users to wear it comfortably on the shoulder or as a high crossbody. You can also detach the strap to carry it by the dual rolled leather handles, which have an 8 cm drop.
Q: How do I care for the black suede? A: Suede is a luxurious material that requires delicate care. Keep the bag away from water, heavy rain and oil-based products to prevent staining. To maintain the velvet-like texture, gently brush the suede periodically with a soft suede brush. If the bag gets wet, blot it gently with a soft, dry cloth and allow it to air-dry away from direct heat sources.
Q: Is this bag considered vintage? A: The Ophidia collection (debuted in 2018) is a modern line designed to pay homage to Gucci’s vintage archives from the 1970s. It features the Double G hardware and the signature Web stripe. While the style is retro-inspired and this specific piece is pre-loved, the Ophidia Boston itself is a contemporary re-interpretation rather than a heritage piece from the 80s.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a secure zip-top closure with double zipper pulls, ensuring your belongings stay safe while commuting or travelling.
Q: What defines the Ophidia collection? A: The Ophidia line is characterised by the fusion of two iconic Gucci codes: the green and red Web stripe and the gold-toned Double G (GG) hardware. It blends vintage aesthetics with modern functionality.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts. We perform multi-point checks on materials (suede quality, leather trim), stitching, hardware finish, brand stamps and serial numbers. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: What accessories are included with this specific piece? A: This item includes the detachable shoulder strap. Please refer to the “Accessories” section on this page for the complete list of included items (e.g., dust bag or box), as pre-loved sets can vary.
