Delivery & Returns
Q: What fits inside the Balenciaga First Bag? A: The Balenciaga First Bag is a compact yet practical everyday style. With approximate measurements of 33 x 18 x 6 cm, it is well suited to essentials such as a phone, card holder or small wallet, keys, sunglasses, and a few beauty items. Its slim profile means it is best for light daily use rather than bulkier items. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This bag features hand-stitched dual handles as well as a detachable shoulder strap, so it can be carried by hand or worn on the shoulder. The listed strap measurement is 21 and the handle measurement is 14, which gives a helpful indication of how it will sit when carried.
Q: Is this the classic Balenciaga Motorcycle style? A: Yes. The First is one of Balenciaga’s iconic Motorcycle bag styles, known for its soft leather, aged brass hardware, front zipped pocket, top zip closure, whipstitched handles, and the signature matching mirror. It offers the same recognisable look as the larger Motorcycle bags in a more compact format.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This bag includes a dust bag, mirror, and shoulder strap. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information. If an accessory is not mentioned there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: This item is listed in good condition. The exterior shows wear and discolouration on the handles, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches. Please review the product information and images carefully for the most accurate impression of its current condition.
Q: Is the mirror detachable? A: Yes. The Balenciaga First is known for its matching framed mirror, and this item includes one. It is designed as a detachable accessory and is one of the signature details collectors often look for in this style.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: To care for this bag, wipe the leather gently with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils, or excessive moisture. The aged brass hardware can develop light surface marks with normal use, so it is best stored carefully to minimise contact and scratching. When not in use, keep the bag in its dust bag and lightly stuffed to help maintain its shape.
Q: Is the Balenciaga First Bag lightweight and easy to use every day? A: Yes. One reason this style remains popular is that it is relatively lightweight and easy to carry compared with larger Balenciaga Motorcycle bags. Its smaller shape makes it a good choice if you like the signature slouchy Balenciaga look but prefer to carry only daily essentials.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number? A: No serial number is listed in the product information for this specific item. If you would like further details before purchasing, feel free to contact us and we can advise based on the available product information.
Q: How do you authenticate vintage Balenciaga bags? A: At A Retro Tale, all items are carefully vetted for authenticity. For vintage Balenciaga bags, typical checkpoints include the leather quality, stitching, hardware, logo details, and interior tag construction. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell.
