Delivery & Returns
Q: What fits inside this Chanel Drawstring Backpack? A: With approximate measurements of 42 × 31 × 30 cm, this is a roomy vintage backpack that should comfortably hold daily essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, cosmetics pouch, sunglasses, and a tablet, with extra space for light layers or small extras. As with all bags, capacity depends on how you pack, so please use the measurements on this page as your best guide.
Q: Is this backpack suitable for everyday use? A: Yes. Its generous size, top handle, dual adjustable shoulder straps, and drawstring closure make it practical for daily wear. As this is a vintage leather bag, many buyers prefer to use it for everyday essentials rather than overloading it, which helps preserve the shape and leather over time.
Q: Does this bag fit a laptop? A: It may fit some smaller laptops or slim devices based on the overall dimensions, but it was not designed as a dedicated laptop bag and does not feature a padded laptop compartment. We recommend comparing your device’s exact measurements with the bag measurements before purchasing.
Q: What is included with this item? A: According to the product information, this backpack includes a dustbag, a pouch, and the serial number, which is loose in the bag. If an item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What does the serial number indicate? A: The serial number corresponds to the 1989–1991 period, which is consistent with an early vintage Chanel bag from that era. For vintage Chanel pieces, the serial number is one important authenticity marker, but it is always assessed alongside materials, construction, hardware, and other details.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. This means the bag presents very well while still showing the gentle character expected from a vintage Chanel piece.
Q: How should I care for vintage Chanel leather? A: To care for vintage Chanel leather, wipe it gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, avoid overfilling, and keep it away from prolonged sunlight, heat, and moisture. When not in use, store it in its dustbag and lightly stuff it with acid-free tissue or soft cloth to help maintain its shape.
Q: Is this an authentic vintage Chanel backpack? A: A Retro Tale specialises in authenticated luxury vintage pieces. For Chanel bags from this era, authenticity is typically assessed through a combination of serial details, leather quality, stitching, hardware, construction, and overall consistency with the model and period. This bag is also described as made in France, which aligns with the product information.
