Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside this Balenciaga City Bag? A: With measurements of 38 x 24 x 13 cm, this is a roomy everyday size. It will generally hold a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, a small cosmetics pouch and other daily essentials, with space for a slim tablet or small book depending on how you pack it. Please use the listed measurements as the best guide to capacity.
Q: Is this a practical everyday bag? A: Yes. The City is widely loved for its relaxed shape and day-to-day usability, and this example has classic proportions that suit everyday essentials while keeping the signature slouchy Balenciaga look.
Q: Can this bag be carried by hand or on the shoulder? A: Yes. It has dual top handles with an approximately 12 cm handle drop and a detachable shoulder strap with an approximately 25 cm drop, so it offers both hand-carry and shoulder wear.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody? A: It is best considered a shoulder bag rather than a crossbody style. Based on the listed 25 cm strap drop, most people will find it most comfortable on the shoulder or carried by hand.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed in the product information. For this bag, that includes a detachable shoulder strap and a mirror.
Q: Does this bag have a secure closure and inside pocket? A: Yes. It features a zip closure and a black fabric-lined interior with one internal pocket, which is useful for keeping smaller essentials organised.
Q: What condition is this vintage bag in? A: The exterior and interior are both rated Very Good with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with gentle vintage wear.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Wipe the leather gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemicals, excess moisture, prolonged sunlight and heat. To help preserve the shape, store the bag in a breathable dust bag and avoid overfilling it. For deeper cleaning, it is best to use a specialist leather cleaner or bag spa.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: At A Retro Tale, bags are checked by experts using details such as leather quality, construction, stitching, hardware, shape and interior markings. No serial number is listed in the product information for this item, so the overall craftsmanship and brand-specific details are especially important in the authentication process.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: According to the product information, this bag was made in Italy.
